Because I am a doofus.

meitantei_cjOliver got up last night at about a quarter to midnight; I heard his footsteps on the flooring. I got up to follow him because I usually go with him when he gets water to add to the bowl once he's done drinking. He wasn't in the kitchen, he wasn't by the couch. He was by the front door and peeing on the mat! He moved over to the couch while I cleaned it up, then went back to the door and stood there with his nose up, basically saying "LET ME OUT NOW". I threw on some clothes and took him out to the driveway, and the result wasn't pretty. ^^;
Turns out I accidentally gave him a whole pill instead of a half pill for one of the medications. Thankfully he only had to go out the one time; I brought his water bowl into my room and shut the door so that, if he had to go out, he'd HAVE to wake me up. It never came up, though. I kept waking up last night to check him, and he stayed in the same spot. This morning, he finally drank some water.
He's sleeping now. We walked for about 45 minutes or so; he wanted to walk the whole circle path. I expected him to stop and want to turn around, but he never did. He didn't really eat his food this morning, but two of the pills have loss of appetite as a side effect. He could also still be holding out for wet food, but he's not getting that. XD
Anyway, yeah, pills for the next 20 days or so. Two are for his heart, one's to help with his throat.
Trying to work on stuff for Graphic Narrative, but I'm totally blocked. ^^; I might just leave it until later.
