I had a lovely time at last night's Black Cat Ball. Guinevere and I both showed up dressed as nurses - we both decided that we were each Nurse Cherry Ames, and it was very amusing to try to see our feline friends tell us apart. Guinevere brought her sick sister Rapunzel, and Scarlett and Dulcinea... Sign in to see full entry.

10/31/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
Unfortunately, today is the day when we celebrate the existence of black cats - like my pesky brother, Michael. I'm planning on taking him to the Black Cat Ball tonight - held in memory of my old friend, Ayelet Chesley, who passed away earlier this year - just to keep him occupied. I know that,...

10/30/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
I have spent the last five days taking an intensive course updating my feline nursing skills, learning especially how to care for sick humans. It has been challenging, but at the same time, I feel more relaxed and refreshed than I have in many months. My human went to see her evil vet lady on... Sign in to see full entry.

10/24/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
Today has been a very calm day. My human has taken it easy today, because her back was bothering her badly enough to warrant taking pain medication for it. Other than that, she was fine. However, I'm worried about her eyes, after what the evil vet man said about their condition yesterday. Yes, he... Sign in to see full entry.

10/23/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
My human went to the evil vet man today, to see how her eyes were doing. It turns out that she has some very mild problems with her retinas, problems which are progressing very slowly (fortunately for me). So far, she can see well enough to get annoyed at me when I walk in front of her. She goes to... Sign in to see full entry.

10/22/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
Because things continue to be relatively calm at my house, I have chosen to make public something that came up in the comments section of yesterday's post. A Blogging Network member - I am duty bound not to reveal her name because I value patient privacy to some extent - asked about measures one can... Sign in to see full entry.

10/21/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
My human is frustrated and bored. She is experiencing something called Writers' Block, although I don't see the block anywhere around the house; if I did, I'd eliminate it for her gladly. I wish, as well, that I had a treatment for it, if it is a legitimate nursing diagnosis. I've found out about... Sign in to see full entry.

Not much is happening with my humans - all seems to be well with them - so I'd like to update you on my nursing professor, Guinevere Pumpkin. She and her human have been following the World Series this weekend. Her human is a fan of a team called the New York Yankees, while I have been following the... Sign in to see full entry.

10/19/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
My human has decided to get out of bed and watch another dog show. This time, it's one of the Eukanuba-sponsored shows. Again, I have to ask just what the Show is that the winner is best in show of. As a feline, I am absolutely clueless. And my human is still drooling over the Irish Wolfhounds - the... Sign in to see full entry.

10/18/2003 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
Today is much better; everyone is reasonably healthy, with my only complaint being that my human overslept. I just wish she'd stop reading entirely and pay attention to me only. (It's tough being a Goddess as well as a feline nurse.) If you'll pardon me, I must get back to tending to Michael's... Sign in to see full entry.
