Some bitchface was there dropping off her cat and complaining about how she&#8217;d already been waiting 30 minutes. I empathized with her till someone came out for Henry and she screamed to the dude, &#8220;But I was here before HER!&#8221; Fuck you, lady! I realize every minute of your life is so much more important than mine because, as you said many times, you work in an ICU. But since you <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">do<\/span> work in a hospital as Head Nurse in Charge of Bad Attitude and Long Waits or whatever, you should not be surprised by what happens at one. I guess some people can dish out but they can&#8217;t take it.<\/p>\n<p>UPDATED AGAIN TO ADD: Henry came through the operation fine, except for a little post-anesthesia wooziness. The vet was very pleased with the new and improved toes she created for him. He&#8217;s staying at the animal hospital overnight so they can monitor his pain level and change the bandages, and I&#8217;ll pick him up Thursday.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Henry the dog is having an operation on his deformed paw today.
