i'm doing the electric slide...

it is official, we are paperless at work! the last thing to go electronic, our schedule book, has finally gone to that sad, papershredder in the sky. it is not too bad, other than the fact that we have about 20 9am appts booked every dya ubtil the overlap with the old system wears off, and the fact that all our drop-offs: tentative, scheduled, wellness check-ups, surgeries and otherwise are all jumbled together.

then (dut duh duh doom!) the worst thing imaginable happens, total system melt-down: grey screens of death from every computer. at 5pm (our busy last 3 hours of the day). we thickly came to realize that we could no longer: print out drug labels, print out estimates to show owners how much our medications cost, insert medical exam findings, check people out (accept any form of currency including credit cardds), call people to tell them not to come in, look at appointments to find out who is coming in, find out what vaccines a puppy needs, or do anything resembling a functioning hospital. anything. snake severed at the headcomes to mind...

i love banfield!

but in other exciting news, we are taking leeloo on her first overnight backpacking trip next weekend! yaahoo! we promise to take pictures.

happy valentine's day to everyone! (we made duck. QWAAAAK)
