I may be a mess most of today. I have an appointment to take Gandalf, our eldest cat, in to be put to sleep this morning. He's almost 16 and having late-stage chronic renal failure, and is about a week past the point of no return, as far as we can tell. We had him in the hospital last week and have had him on subcutaneous fluids and a phosphorous binder this week, and it's just not doing any good.

So yeah, not shaping up to be a good morning.
