my boys

my fuzzy boy had another seizure today while i was at work. it's been about 6 or 7 months since his last one, and i'm not sure if i should take him in and get him medicated for it or not. is it worth making him take medicine every day to prevent something that might happen twice a year?

the seizure itself only lasts about half a minute, but then he's wobbly on his feet for a while, and his gums and tongue go really pale, and he throws up afterword. and he's not graceful at that. i'm sure you don't want details, but he's pathetic when he hurks, and he needs a napkin. just imagine if your whole face was covered in long hair when that happens to you. but then again within a hour it's like the whole thing never even took place. he's his usual hoppy self. and if you've met him you know that's not a typo.

another bit of news. earlier tonight my brother and his girlfriend took us and her family out to dinner for christmas instead of buying individual presents. at dinner, they announced that they haven't set a date yet, but they're going to get married. mom and i are hoping for a small ceremony (like 10 people including the justice of the peace), but they're talking about just going to the court house, with maybe a party later. we really like her (and her family too, or at least the ones we've met), and honestly i like him better since they got together. she's really good for him, as far as encouraging his art and not enabling his immature and destructive impulses. she even gets along great with most of his friends, which considering some of the boy's friends is saying something. plus, not meaning to be shallow, but she has her own car and the ability to hold a job, which is more than could be said for a lot of the girls he's been involved with.

well, that's it for now. gotta sleep and whatnot.
