Monday Mario

I have no good reasons, just lame excuses for my sad abscence from blogging.  Mario's even been getting "where are you?" pings (sadly no one seemed to worry where I was, ha ha).  Thanks to everyone who missed his furry face.  I'm making a committment to getting back on schedule here and catching up with all of your blogs, too.

As an olive branch for my delay, I present to you the elusive bunny yawn:

A quick eye update:  This photo was taken probably over a month ago.  I did a course of two different antibiotics for about a month and there was pretty much no difference in Mario's weepiness.  I'm pretty sure this isn't an infection.  He's eating normally (on both sides of his mouth), is a chunky monkey and interested in all food, comes out and binkies and runs around at night.  Bottom line, he is 100% himself.  I realized he's had this issue off and on (obviously more on the last few months) for almost a year and I think if it was something sinister like an abscess or strange tooth growing something else would be off by now.

I felt that the weepiness seemed to improve when on the ointment mainly because of the vehicle vs. the medication so am currently treating his eye like dry eye.  I can't rationalize putting him under anesthesia for x-rays when he seems so happy for something I've realized is fairly long standing.
