I took an extended weekend to visit someone out in Wisconsin, had a lot of fun hanging out, got to spend an afternoon with an old friend from college\u2026 it was a blast. I was looking forward to the rest of the week until I walked in the front door and bad news started coming from every angle.<\/p>\n
* While I was gone, our pet dog Kao had three seizures in two days and was diagnosed with diabetes. She\u2019s started taking phenobarbitol for the seizures (which seems to be working) and Dad went out to get her first doses of insulin this afternoon.<\/p>\n
* I found out that while I was in Wisconsin, there were some misunderstandings, I did things I shouldn\u2019t have done and didn\u2019t do things I should have done—unfortunately, tactfulness isn\u2019t one of my strong points—and seriously upset the person I was staying with. It\u2019s reminiscent of when I visited an old college friend down in Atlanta; she now holds a serious grudge against me and I can\u2019t really blame her. Much like last time, all I can say is that I\u2019m sorry and hope you can forgive me eventually.<\/p>\n
* Oh yeah, and I failed the bar exam, too.<\/p>\n
