Another Relaxing Weekend (for me)

Today marks the end of yet another somewhat relaxing weekend where I didn't get much of anything done. The weekend before last was the end of my week-long holiday and I spent it recovering from a pretty nasty cold. This weekend, I was healthy, but not very focused on what I needed to do. I spent a lot of time snuggling with Dan and Da Mi. We watched some movies and played outside a bit, but nothing very far from home. The farthest I went was actually to the vets to get Da Mi her first round of vaccinations. I was a little disappointed to find out that I still won't be able to take her outside for another three weeks! Apparently canine distemper and parvovirus are really common in Beijing because few people vaccinate their dogs. I can understand not vaccinating if you live in the middle of nowhere and your dog isn't exposed to much of anything, but in the city that just seems irresponsible and mean. Anyway, one shot down, three to go. Da Mi didn't like the vet. She peed on him twice and wouldn't go near him unless he pulled her close. I can't say I blame her. If the first thing someone did was to stick a cold piece of metal in my bum, I might not be very happy either!
