Oh the frustrations of being a parent....

...to a small snake that won't eat.  Sigh.

Okay, so I know this isn't like being a *real* parent, but frustrating all the same.  It's been at least two weeks since little Ruby has eaten.  She's lost 6g since August 20th!  Bah!  I have her currently in a tub with the thawed food in a dark place in hopes that she eats.  I reeeeally don't want to have to start force feeding.  D:

Other than that, things are a bit uneventful.

• The surgeon called mid-last week to inform me she has received all the paperwork from my tests and needs to send a form for my PCP to fill out.  So nothing new there.
• I start my new job on Thursday.  Everyone keeps asking if I'm excited.  Of course not.  This is not my dream job but I've been laid off since mid June and I really need some money coming in.  Who gets excited about working?  :p
• Vacation is less than a month away... which means my surgery is getting closer as well!  ...is it sad that I'm more excited to get the vacation over with so I can have this surgery and really get started with my new life?  Yes, it's sad.

All right, that's it for my updates.  Off to check on Ruby...
