March 25 in These Foolish Things

25 days dry. But my dog isn’t faring so well.

Today my puppy drank some of my coffee when I walked away from my desk. It was a latte. I should know better than to walk away with anything left on my desk. I was so mad at myself and watched her very closely through most of the day. Took her on a walk at lunchtime to “walk it off”, so to speak.

I thought she was ok…just a little rowdier than she normally is. But when I googled my dog drank coffee I was shocked to see just how dangerous coffee is to dogs! Coffee can be just as bad as chocolate! Did you know this?

Then, right before I had a meeting with one of my staff, I had to go to the bathroom, so I walked away again to pee. When I came back, the woman on my staff (let’s call her Negative C) was wiping something off of my desk and off of her papers. It was HER coffee! Martini had gotten into her cup after she set it on my desk and walked away to get something else!

Now granted, her coffee was decaf, but I was still mad! Mostly mad at myself, but I was so worried about my puppy, so I took her to my last meeting of the day with my boss, and of course, she acted up. It was horrible and unprofessional, but I was so worried.

I called the vet and they told me to just watch her closely and keep her as calm as possible and make sure that her pulse didn’t go above 150 and that she didn’t throw up or convulse or anything.

Ugh. I kind of blew today, what with the coffee mistake and the two bad meetings.

So I finally decided to throw a party! Well, at least I got the evites out. It’s a champagne toast to Spring. Nothing else could cheer me up.

I hope to make up for today, tomorrow.

Today was a 5, but that’s only because it was such a beautiful Spring day. Now the rain’s gonna come tonight and wash all of the yuck (and coffee) away.

Love and future bubbles!
