It's been a very long day

One of my recently acquired fosters was limping badly. Because I got them after someone spotted a woman flinging cats down an embankment onto railroad tracks, I thought he broke a leg and I took him to the only open emergency vet. Turns out he had cellulitis and will be medicated for that. But it’s been ten hours and I’m still at the emergency vet waiting to check out. I’m so tired.
