About Me

My photo
Clayton here. Here is a little about me. My favorite color is orange. I wish everything in my life was orange. Including my car and phone. (R.I.P.) I love text messaging and don't really like talking on the phone. My favorite drink in the entire world is Dr. Pepper. I'm pretty sure God gave it to the world because he loves us. (Add a little coconut rum, it makes it even better. If that's even possible.) I work in Human Resources at a hotel in downtown SLC. I'm addicted to reality TV. Especially Survivor, American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance. I love Mr. Potato Head, as you can probably tell. What else... Oh yeah I'm gay and have an AMAZING husband, Paul. ILY!!

Kitty Update

So we've had the kitties for about a month and a half now. In that time Paul has had insane allergies. We both ignored all the warnings that it was the cats he was allergic too. He finally got in to see an allergy doctor last week. The tested him for several different allergens. (I had a picture of his back with a bunch of numbers written on it but he made me delete it.) It turns out he's allergic to 2 or 3 different types of trees, grass, dust mite (which isn't really a problem in Utah) and cats and dogs. Of coarse the doctor instantly tells us to get rid of the cats. Well that's just not going to happen. What are we supposed to do with them, return them to the shelter? I don't think so. So the doctor gave Paul tons of medication and a bunch of prescriptions. Once Paul gets his asthma under control he can start receiving a shot treatment that will tell his body not to be allergic to cats any more. (It works pretty much like a vaccine.) Since we visited the doctor and Paul has started taking his medication he has no allergic reactions to the cats. He hasn't used his inhaler since Thursday and he stopped coughing. So far so good!!
The only problem now is that our little kitties are growing up so fast. Look at how big they are now. I can hardly believe it!

They did get big! They're sleek and classy ladies. So glad Paul figured out the allergies so you can keep them.
