Hiding Out
Joan says that I'm acting weird. Really what I'm doing is just finding a good, secret place to go lick my foot a lot without Joan seeing! (I'm so sneaky!) I went into the dark bedroom which is really weird cuz usually I want to hang out with Joan at all times. I also spent sometime outside in the dark (well, there is a light out there) on the deck in the backyard. Joan kept checking of me to see that I was okay.
Then instead of giving me my treat like normal, Joan gave me just one and then:
she looked at my feet and sprayed two of them with that stuff she is constantly spraying on them,
she put cold wet stuff in my ear and cleaned it out with a papertowel,
she put more stuff in my ear and pushed it in.
then... she gave me another treat.
She says I must be allergic to ragweed or a million other things.
Last night I was also acting weirdly, and I got to go up on Joan's bed. But then after she couldn't sleep and I was making all sorts of sounds and pushed my leg into Joan's stomach and back etc. etc., she told me to get off the bed. I did. FINE. I went out into the living room and started licking my foot - then she yelled at me to stop licking from the other room. I did. for a while. It is really itchy!
BTW, my irritated foot is not the same one I wrote about when I first got here to Austin. That one got better, then another one got bad, then that one got better, then Joan ran out of pink pills (which she gives me 2 of per day now!) for a couple days, and then my ears and foot got bad again!
It's tough having allergies. Joan doesn't have any so she doesn't really understand. Though she seems sympathetic.
