Valyin Goes to the Vet ~

Posted in Meow by

Valyin is about 6.5 weeks old. Too young for her shots and spaying. Took her to check her out anyway. We went to Bond Vet, which I remain neutral about. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and the pricing is fair ($15 first time, $75 for regular visits , lab work and treatments extra).

One particular staff person irritated the life out of me and as a result I will probably never go back. She is wonderful with animals, but she seems new, defensive and just plain off-putting. Even Val got annoyed with her and she likes everyone.

Overall the hours are great and the UES location is clean and attractive. The doctors are very personable and I trust my pet to their care. I do NOT however trust some (namely one) nurse with my pet who are more concerned with their pride than bedside manner.

It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, Its’s an Undercover Club that doubles as an Ice Cream Shoppe O.O

Posted in Random Thoughts by

Came here with my kid sister for some ice cream and found so much more. I had to Google the place to make sure my eyes were deceiving me. If you look at the pics, the not-so-secret entrance is behind the random collection of empty ice cream pints.

Not-so-secret entrance to the club.

That door swings open, but only when the cashier — who is almost always stylishly clad in all black lets you in.

The ice-cream tastes great, and they’ve got free hugs. I’ve never been in the club but I hear there’s a strict dress code. I’ve seen people in jeans get turned away.

I don’t find too many things in my hometown that interest me. But this one stuck out to me.
