Fight Club
OK so I don’t care about the first rule of fight club, cause I am gonna tell you all about it. It involves to very adorable males, and no it is not Brad Pitt and Ed Norton. It is my rabbits Frodo and Samwise. About 2 weeks ago there hormones really kicked in and they started fighting. At first I thought they were just “rough housing” but it seems I was in denial. When they were both lying sideways on the floor pulling each others fur out, it was very hard to keep denying they were fighting (but I tried). I separated them immediately and called the vet to get them snipped. I met a very nice rabbit breeder this weekend at a mitten class at Twist (it was very awesome BTW) she said that even after getting neutered they will continue to fight, even though they are brothers and even though they were all cuddly and snuggly with each other before. It is as if the one ring has come between them. I am so sad. I know I am assigning human feelings to rabbits, but now I am so afraid they will be lonely. It doesn’t help that we have to let them out separately to play. It now is more time consuming. Oh well I am sure once they get over the snipping they will be fine.
In other news I am losing my job The woman I am replacing came back from maternity leave earlier than expected, so I need to be looking for another job. I haven’t been looking really hard though. I really want to stay here. I love the work that I am doing, it is so engaging and I get to think for a change. I also really like the people I work with. What a wonderful change from my last job. There is a lead on another job at the company that one of the other directors is trying to help me get. It will take me out of the lab, but doing more of the stuff I did before at Pfizer. I can do it, but I will miss the lab A LOT!
I am still finding it hard to settle in to our house. It is weird because this house needed a lot less work to get it to my standard of acceptable, and I felt right at home after the 1st week, but I still seem to be always running around and always a step behind. I am still not entirely happy with the craft room set up. It still seems to cramped and I don’t have things easily accessible. I think it will just take time to decide where the best place is for everything. The sewing room is much better. I organized my books by project type (knitting, crochet, sewing, medieval history, embroidery etc) and I am my own little Barnes and Noble. It is very easy to pop down there and sew for ½ hour of just go and find the thread I need. I have been working on my Turkish coat that I have had planned for 2 years and even pulled out my Turkish embroidery to get ready to do the trim. I really would like some stellar garb. I haven’t made anything really fancy for myself since before the bubby was born. I think he is at an age where he would wear something nice and fancy too.
One funny thing. I came home after a long day of work and a cold and rainy commute to find “Harry Potter” sitting at the island having dinner with the Hubby. He had his tie over his t-shirt and his school robes and glasses on. I took a picture on the film camera so I will have to post after I finish the roll.
I know long post, but I haven’t had time to write in a while.
