News from the vet: Georgie was thinking about having a UTI. Her pH was 7.5 and she had red and white cells in her urine indicative of inflammation. She is on two medications to stave off the actual UTI. Her urine will be retested just short of two weeks from now. If it still tests poorly or she gets another UTI soon she will permanently be placed on a medication typically used for kitty arthritis that also builds up the cells around the bladder. She's a champ.
I finished my kicking ass class this evening. Despite having been told to the contrary, it was in fact Hot Cop (with the dreamy blue eyes) who suited up and let us beat on him. I was not permitted to take my own video, but video was taken and we watched it at the end. Let's just say that I got the most laughs. In scenario 3 I totally faked out Hot Cop and made him turn his back to me while I ran out of the room to safety. (Hey, the objective is to get away and survive, I met that goal, but it was fun to have Hot Cop call it out as his favorite encounter. ;)
In scenario 4 we were in a dark room and two different men were taunting me. One of them asked if I wanted trouble but he sounded EXACTLY like Avi, so I giggled and said, "no" but with a smile in my voice. I think you can guess that situation quickly went downhill from there. Note to self: Even if an attacker sounds like someone you know you still need to defend yourself. :P
Ladies, if you live in the United States and are interested in taking a kicking ass class please visit the RAD Systems website. (That link takes you directly to the program locator page.) The class will in fact kick your ass, but it will give you the opportunity to practice physically and verbally defending yourself.
Oh, and Molly, surprisingly I did NO GROIN KICKS. WTF?! I told myself to, but the one opportunity where I even thought about doing it I couldn't get myself angled on him correctly. Murr. We are invited to return to class whenever we like, so perhaps I'll get a new opportunity in the future.
And now that you're all caught up with my Monday, I'm going to bed. Exhausted. Good night. Shut off the lights on your way out. *Zzzzz*

It WAS me, and that punch was pretty good.
I knew it, that's why I giggled.
And, at first I thought you meant the (spiked) beverage, which explains how you made me giggle in a dark room when I was supposed to be defending my life!
Just a kitty bladder tip--if she does need the medicine, and they prescribe Cosequin, you can do your wallet a favor by just getting generic glucosamine instead. That's the important ingredient, and Cosequin has a lot of other expensive components in it, as well. Why yes, I once had a cat with interstitial bladder cystitis--why do you ask? ;)
