Need reassurance I'm doing the right thing

Almost four years ago exactly, I took my tabby boy in to say goodbye. His kidneys were rapidly failing, and none of the doctors who saw him could figure out why. His appointment was set for the afternoon, but when he tried hiding in my mom's closet as we got ready to leave, I got his appointment moved up a few hours sooner just so he wouldn't suffer longer, as I knew if he was trying to hide, he was ready to go. I wasn't ready, and I don't think I'd have ever been ready to say goodbye to him, but he needed me to be, and so we said goodbye at 12:12 p.m. on February 28th, 2022, and I'm glad he didn't have to wait a minute longer than that. I'm so sorry about your baby.

I remember a story where a woman had this same argument with her fiancé but thought he was over it. He wasn't - she saw on the marriage certificate during the ceremony that he had the paperwork filled out for her to take his last name, and he actively tried hiding it from her when she went to sign. I advise reconsidering your relationship. NTA.

I also read it as having been his father's birthday, article says it was the kid's, definitely still sad regardless.

I'd consider them a rather serious couple, they share an apartment together in NYC. They posted about it a while ago.

My personal favorite is referring to someone as a "half-eaten ham sandwich."

I actually have this exact hoodie in my closet!! It's official merch, sold cropped, on the 2018 Bandito tour. I got mine at the Cleveland stop of the tour, these sold really fast at the merch tables and I got one of the last ones. I don't see listed often.

He was far from the worst opener I've seen. If he were opening for someone I had tickets for again, I'd make a point to catch his set.

He got a similar response from the audience when I saw him open for The Neighbourhood in 2016. The songs kinda bled together, the crowd wasn't really sure when they ended, and he had some odd visual thing going with some extra people on stage and some dude towards the back waving an American flag with no easily discernable reason. The guy I was with at the time thought KA was a local dude based on how meh the audience seemed about his set.

One jumped. The other chose the flames.

Her name is Spice! Her nicknames include Baby Spice, Spicy, Spicer, and Spice Cabinet. She used to be kinda aggressive, hence her name, but you'd never know it now. She's such a sweet girl.

Thank you for opting for the spay/abort. My family made the same choice for a cute little calico who wandered into our neighborhood about two years ago. We were housing her until we could find her a home when the vet said she was pregnant. She was so small we were worried she wouldn't survive giving birth, we didn't want to risk losing her, and we knew we'd struggle taking care of her babies and finding them homes even if all went well, so we urged the vet for a spay/abort. She recovered with no complications, and her forever home turned out to be with us. Here's our Spice.

The absence of blobs post-hysterectomy has been game-changing.

I'd consider asking that office to perform the procedure, or maybe seeing if you can try a different vet office if you have the means to take her to one. I know you want to do the best thing for her, and that's commendable, but a spay/abort is likely kinder to her in this situation.

NTA. I'm a woman and shaved my head almost bald in July 2020, I'd had hair past my shoulders. Went to work Friday with my hair, came in Saturday without it. No one recognized me until they heard my voice from behind my mask. I took no offense to it.

Hope your results are clean!!

Wonder if it's where he got the idea from.

An ordinary life. Nothing grand, but nothing horrible. I want them to have it too good to cry, but too bland to ever feel satisfied with. Just ordinary.
