Stress Test and Goats

[tinhuviel]

I took Aunt Tudi for her stress test today. We had to be at the doc's by 10:30, so we left the house at 10. We got home shortly before 5. In addition to the stress test, she also had a lipid profile, liver check, and an echocardiogram. What a day! I got about half of 'God Emperor of Dune' read whilst I waited.

My Moon descended today so it was quite an adventure sitting in uncomfortable waiting room chairs popping aspirin all day. My butt feels like it's twice as wide as it normally is because of all the sitting. Sir Mix-a-Lot would be sprung.

Anyway, Aunt Tudi is supposed to call Thursday for her results. I can't help but think they're gonna tell her she needs a stint. Oy.

ravenlygirl sent me this quiz. It's pretty darned groovy.

MOUNTAIN GOAT

Genera and species: Ovis Musimo

Collective Term: A
trip of mountain goats

 

Description

There's a great deal of similarity
between the mountain goat and its fellow ungulate the sheep. But
this enigmatic creature stands out from the crowd with its unique combination
of alertness, generosity and unassuming charm. For the mountain goat is
a loner. An edgy, introverted soul.who abhors crowds and puts is nimble
legs to work in the great outdoors.

If you're looking for a scout guide
or hiking partner, this sure-footed beast is an ideal choice. However,
its talents as a leader are suspect. Because of its solitary existence,
it does not have the insight into human behavior that is required for leadership.
Mountain goats are not risk takers and need to feel solid ground beneath
their feet before making any major decision. Mia Farrow is an exemplary
mountain goat who manages to maintain her balance while snakes and
rockfalls threaten to dislodge her grip on life.

The mountain goat's desire to find
a mate can lure it from its solitary hideout, and it seeks partners with
strong personalities that promise protection in an unfriendly world. However,
when choosing a mate, it will quickly withdraws if it fails to get a commitment.
This behavior is often interpreted as desperation and some relationships
are doomed before they get off the ground.

 A relationship with a mountain goat is an exercise in ups and downs. Even
though its emotional fragility causes the premature death of many love
affairs, provide its partner remains faithful, the mountain goat will honor
it with commitment and fidelity. For mountain goats are unconditional with
their love and try hard to make their relationships work. This species
of ungulates has a special relationship with the eagle with whom
it shares a common mountain perspective.
