The happy shine of the raise is off

Somehow over the last week I've lost a couple of LJ friends with no notice. I'm suspecting it might have part to do with the post regarding slash of which I had hoped not to cause offense since I was genuinely curious about learning about people's interests but you never know how people are going to take things.

I have to take JonJon to the vet in a few minutes. He's been constipated on and off for the last month or so. When I got home from work yesterday, I was actually pleased to see that he had a decent poo in the box. But for some reason he had no spirit to him. I got him to eat a little but it was a struggle and after that he tried to poo but only a little came out and it's like he was done. He went and laid down and didn't respond much to petting. When I've brought him food later last night and this morning, he turns away and he's licking his lips and hasn't moved much since last night.

I'm one of those types that in the back of my head think that I've done something to upset the universe and am paying for it now. :/
