Life Cycle

At home. . .
Three days ago my dog, Licorice, gave birth to a litter of six. Yesterday, the runt died, and I had to bury it. My sister Nicole is terribly squeamish about such things. However, all the rest of the puppies seem pretty healthy. We plan on taking them to the vet when they're a bit older just to make sure. The last litter of puppies we had were infested with worms, which caused the death of three out of eight, so that is still a potential hazard.

Hopefully, everything will go well. The last litter also had to be bottle fed for some weeks because their mother developed mastitis, which is an infection of the mammary gland.

At school. . .
I'm so terrible with my World Literature class. I had mostly been caught up by all the reading by the first test, which was last Thursday. (I think I did pretty well on it.) And now I'm behind again, with the Song of Roland. And, instead of reading it now, I'm hopelessly typing away in the University Library.

In entertainment. . .
Jamaal has got me hooked on the Sims2. It's an awesome game. I just created sims from my characters and put them in a little neighborhood. What I hate, though, is that you have to do everything for them, including making them go to the bathroom.
