Appointments and Routines, Part II

As post-scripts go, this one is pretty pathetic:

I missed my appointment. I had set an appointment to take the cat to the vet, and everything was all worked out. I was ready to go. Of course, I never asked the cat if she wanted to go.

As I was putting the cat into her carrier, she escaped and has been playing hide-and-seek with me ever since. I will have to take her to the vet on another day. This setback is frustrating for a number of obvious reasons.
