Something is wrong with bear bait. 2 weeks ago she started limping, so I didn't walk her for a few days and then the husband (not knowing) took her out and she started limping again. I took her to the vet last Monday, but when bear bait goes to the vet she is so busy whining and trembling that it is hard to evaluate her. She ended up on anti-inflammatory (5 days) and anti-biotics (stil taking). I think the anti-inflammatories helped. Anyway, the vet said not to walk her for a week, and bear bait was cuh-raaaazy with too much energy for that week, and this morning I thought that if I didn't take her for a little walk that I'd find her climbing the walls (literally), so I took her to the fields, and she was so thrilled she ran in circles barking her head off. By the time we had walked a mile I thought I saw a mild limp and then over the rest of the day the limp evolved into not putting her right front leg down at all. Sheet. Tomorrow it is back to the vet. I hope they can squeeze her in.
In other news, I did not get into a show that I submitted some photos from my rejected Y@le portfolio to. I'm not broke up over it, as a matter of fact I recently read Stephen King's non fiction book, On Writing, in which he tells this story of putting a long nail into something and then sticking all of his rejection letters onto the nail. These days there aren't rejection letters since rejecting you on the internet if more eco friendly, but I am totally going to get me a long nail and start printing out those rejections.
Also, I am going to rewrite my artist statement and make it much more political. I'm going to add some fire to it.
