Mid Semester Break 6

Last night I worked late in the lab on a Bartonella project I'm trying to finish.

I saw a prof's stepson's dog on my street. He actually is supposed to live in Camps, so West Farm is quite a trip for him. When he stood up, I could see he had hurt his front left leg, so the sucker in me stopped and let him hop in my car.

I took him home and fed him, then checked out his leg-- dragging it as though he had nerve damage. Poor thing, but as happy as ever! He slept indoors.

At 5am, the cat woke me up. At 6am, the dog started barking. At 7am the goats started bleating. I kicked everyone out, crawled back into bed, then slept until 9am. At that point I muddled around my apartment, gathered my things, and went back to lab. I decided to take the dog with me to drop him off at the clinic for safe keeping.

Several hours past and my lab work didn't work. I had done all that I could have, so I ran to the port to get a chicken sandwich from Bev. While I was standing in line, I got a phone call from a classmate. He said "I can see you!" I looked around and did not see him, so I assumed he was in a restaurant balcony somewhere in Port Zante. He said he was waving, but I still couldn't see him, even with my glasses on. Just shows how small an island this is and that everyone can see everything you do even if you think they can't!

As I was driving home, the traffic started to slow, which is unusual at 1pm on a Monday. As I neared, I saw a large CAT back-hoe tractor thing driving slowly down the road. This happens all the time, it probably just needed more space than the on coming traffic would allow. As I became the next car to drive around it, I saw the cause of the congestion. There was a completely naked full figured woman walking down the middle of the main road. Her arms were out, above her head at times, and she looked angry as she slowly marched. I thought I'd seen everything by this point on St Kitts. Too bad I'd taken my camera out of my purse so it wouldn't get stolen if I were mugged down town. I would have looped back to get a picture... lol... she was a rather large woman, and without a doubt would look far better with clothes on.

I returned home for a well deserved nap. Spoose called and woke me up. He was ready for the goats, so around 5pm, Rudder and I loaded the two kids up and trekked across the island. Spoose already has two female goats, so my two males should have happy little lives.
