In Your Dreams

howeverbriefI'm in a darkened auditorium for a kung-fu type group competition. I know my group is pretty good, so I'm confident. We take on several teams and win. Then we go head to head against the best group, which happens to include Austin. (I think his group was mostly made of members of the moped gang he was a part of when we dated.) Our groups are pretty evenly matched, and when we face off, he hits me in a way that should knock me out of the competition but somehow doesn't. We are tied on points, so a rematch is scheduled.
When I go off-stage, my older sister (who was friends with Austin way before we knew each other or started dating) finds me and confronts me about my near loss. She tries to convince me to leave without fighting him again and says angrily, "Don't you know he doesn't like you?"
I turn to her, just as angry, and say, "Don't you know I don't like him?"
Speaking of exes, I got this message on new year's eve: "With all the crap that's happened this year I want to say that I am sorry for the way that I treated you and acted around you. I was an insensitive asshole and it was a wonder that you were ever friends with me. That being said I want to thank you for all the years that we were friends and apologize for the years we were not because it was my fault! I hope you have a great 2016"
That would be from Thomas Warner, who I hadn't heard from since his grandmother, the only reason I knew him in the first place, died last April. Weird stuff. I didn't respond.
Not speaking of exes, we took Kiki to the vet yesterday because she's been sneezing for weeks now and getting it all over everything we own (plus we are still concerned and all, haha). The doctor gave Kiki another shot, her third since last August, as well as some information about a CT scan because she's still concerned she might have a nasal tumor and that would be the best way to figure out if she does, though they might take it and still not be able to see it. We're on the fence about it. On one hand, I'd like to know if she has cancer. On the other, it's an estimated $500-$1000 test, and every time they've given her this shot, she's gotten better for a while. Just hard to be on the roller coaster of not knowing, and since Kiki favors Mike, I'd hope he wouldn't have to go through the same deal he went through with his cat, Katie. Time will tell I guess. New to this appointment, they found she had a swollen lymph node in her leg that could be due to inflammation or cancer as well, so that's fun. This is not counting in Olive, who we haven't gotten a senior screen for but should because she's reabsorbing a tooth and should probably get dental work but they don't know if that would kill her in the process because of her age. Sigh.
And we're considering children at some point?!
This weekend has been pretty low-key otherwise. Usual chores and such. We also went to brunch today for an early celebration for my dad's birthday, which was nice, no drama, and tasty. Otherwise, my head is in a weird place, but at least I also have the day off tomorrow. Not much else to report now, I suppose.
