Irony

Today, I am divine awareness.

Today, I drove right past my own street on my way home.

We had to take our cat to the vet for an emergency visit this morning, and leave her there all day. Driving home from the vet, I totally missed my street, and was some distance past it before I realized the error. Too be fair, I was one major street south of where I normally drive, and so the cues that I use were a little skewed. I'm used to school, shopping plaza, my turn.

There was the school, then my turn, but I wasn't paying attention. I was paying attention to my driving. I can tell you where the construction site was, the car that passed me in the school zone, and the fact that the lights were flasing in the school zone. I wasn't completely out of the loop.

I was hyper aware today...every meow out other cat uttered sent me through the roof. We had a dog a few years ago that died very suddenly, so pet health scares like this bring back lots of bad memories.

Everything seems to be okay, she's staying overnight for observation. I wish divine awareness on the staff who are keeping an eye on our Cleocatra overnight.
