That Monkey!

Mal took his collar off last night somehow! We left him at around 9:00 to see Snakes on a Plane (SO GOOD), visited briefly before bed at around midnight, and by 7:00 AM he had taken the thing off. He's very clean and soft now, and all of the bits of lint that were stuck into his old scabs on his belly are gone. The staples are all accounted for though, and it didn't like he tried to pull them out.

2 more days and he can take the thing off officially. I'll feel so much better. Brian put up a shelf on the window sill yesterday so he could get some air and look outside. Poor guy!

Trooping yesterday was so sweet - I almost cried! The leading trooper (X-Wing) did a little speech for the little boy about how he had come through tough times, showed how he was very brave, and would be welcomed into the Jedi Order. He was given his own light saber, and all of the Jedis circled him and lowered their sabers (just like Anakin's ceremony in the movie). So sweet! We hung around a while for pictures and food. Pictures (not yet edited with saber effects): http://tk7602.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=178

I need to jump in the shower and head up to NH to help my sister unpack and organize her new house. Yay!

I'm not a very physically emotional person, but emotionally I was so honored and touched to be part of this very special event in Thomas's life.
