(no subject)
It's always good to start with something positive. Yesterday I had an awesome lunch with a vet and his wife and for two hours I forgot all about everything else there is to worry about in life and retreated to a world where I can speak comfortably and knowledgably about something real. Plus they are going to try and throw me some work which would be amazing. I'm a different person in vet hospitals. Suddenly I'm confident and excited to be there and I am good at what I do when I'm there. I also saw a King Charles while touring the clinic so that was fun.
Otherwise I hate being mature. It's fine in a professional clinic and I know (almost) everyone grows up but it sucks pretty bad to be the only one who finds stupid things stupid. I'll drink alcohol and have a good time but why does everyone automatically think getting drunk is so damn cool and every great thing in life or every bad thing in life deserves a drink. "Oh, I can't wait to get trashed tonight." It's really not that attractive. Now I'm not going to be a hypocrite because I drink to but I don't go crazy. When is the last time I've streaked, or lit a bed on fire, or call a hotel clerk for more alcohol. Yes, I've seen all those things. I don't know, but I really wish I could turn off my maturity and have fun sometimes. Everyone else is.
Why is the whole world obsessed with and so casual about sex which, quite frankly, should be an intimate and special thing in my view. Not every guy is a horny, quivering mass of testosterone aching to get with as many people as many times as possible. I think everyone should make their own decisions about sex and decide what is right for them, but I wish the world wouldn't ridicule those who aren't so promiscuous. Sometimes I wish someone who can say how many times they've respectfully declined sex would be acknowledged as commendable much as those who can say how many people they've slept with.
I don't feel like talking anymore on the subject here even though there is a lot more to be said.
In other news, I got a parking ticket for parking in the Jepson lot for four minutes. The ticket was issued at 2:14 and I got in my car and my clock said 2:15. The appeals process is in motion and I dare the police department to make an honest case against me.
Corinne did very well on her MCATs so that's good news. Now she just needs to choose a med school near here :)
My dad hired a fourth doctor at his clinic so that a big deal. 3 docs means high flow general practice but 4 means you can start to specialize. More changes are coming. I see them on the Frontier. (inside joke) It's always fun to go back to the clinic when I'm home and meet the new staff members that are almost always there. Sadly, Doggie Day Care is closing because we need the Loft for other stuff but it was a good run and I'm glad I was a part of it. I learned a lot and taught a lot and it was a great experience.
I really miss Mike. I'm looking at his pic and I could really use him here. He'd be the perfect apartment dog. Seriously. I've grown up with people talking about how their animal is the perfect whatever but I can tell you with professional clarity that Mike would be the perfect pet for this apartment. He'd have a great time and really reduce my stress.
Corinne said it's going to be 97 degrees today so the river is definitely on the agenda later because I am not staying inside all day.
Cheers
