today george got a big ol' box full of rabbit parts! the new head gasket, brake pads, door gaskets, new head bolts, a new door latch, thermostat, and ... a water pump! and a green o-ring.
boy got to chase ants around the window sill.
girl got to be chased into the house by another mean dog. last night a dog bolted from the sidewalk into the driveway barking and snapping his evil jaw at her. she managed to scramble away and under the house. this morning she was sitting on the threshold of the door and the dog almost busted into the house. i'm not impressed with these san anselmo pooches.
and tonight i got to go to the doctor for a mysteriously swollen achey weird knee problem. it kind of went like my dentist visit, except this time the doctor was just late to work, apparently. after waiting in the exam room for an hour, he came in, moved my knee around a little, and determined that i probably have a little tear or some other damage in the joint, but it doesn't appear to be severe enough to warrant x-rays. however, if by next monday it's still all "jacked up," as my co-worker emily would say, then i get to go back in and possibly get some x-rays and then depending on what they find the great possiblity: surgery. i'm hoping it'll just get better.
tomorrow we may drive up to jenner and beyond and see what's whats up north or we may stay home and i'll sit on the couch. regardless we're heading to hilda's coffee shop for breakfast.

You should go to Guerneville, too. It's cute and there are some fun antiques / flea markets.
I'm very impressed with the whole Rabbit diagram and the continuing story! Has George found someone to repair the heart?
Yeah, I have found that visits to knee doctors can be of the utmost frustration--when my knees were f-ed up sophomore year, I had a similar visit (costing the insurance company $300) in which he basically told me that dancing a lot makes knees hurt. He was terrible. It turned out that my knees were hurting as a result of severe muscle imbalances that I fixed by doing pilates...If it's still hurting but you don't have to get surgery, I'll show you some easy exercises that might help!
We're leaving on Monday. We'll be in-state on the 4th of September. CRAZY!!
Hey Jenne --
Don't get knee surgery till you can't walk! (Then it is miraculously effective.) Small knee injuries get better, though slowly. I'm with Dyani. Go to a physical therapist, swim a lot, or look up knee exercises and do them and be patient with it. All surgeons do is surgery, and they have limited imaginations.
Steamy hot here again. I like it, but everything is sticky.
