Today was a rather long day. Ang and I had gone to a friend's house last night for dinner and some gaming. We got to see some friends we hadn't seen in over a year and introduce them to Terra Mystica--currently one of our favorite games. Unfortunately, the fact that there were two new players meant that the rules had to be explained which took a ( Read more... )

I share my home with two adorable dogs, and a cat. Rogue is Justin and Carolyn's dog. She's a mix between a Keeshond and an Australian Shephard mix. I swear she's more Keeshond than anything...though not quite as fluffy. :P She does shed pretty bad though, and for that reason she's not allowed on our bed. For awhile she wasn't even allowed in our ( Read more... )

*~Yesterday I got a free yoga mat!! One of my roommates acquired it from a friend of his and he didn't want it, so he offered it to anyone in the house. I snatched it up as soon as it was offered. Back in Indiana I did Yoga on the regular, but when I moved it was something that got put on the backburner. I'd never had a Yoga mat and wanted one and ( Read more... )

There are two things I know I'm meant to do in life: write, and work with animals. Right now, both of those roles are getting fulfilled. I write every change I get, and my dayjob is at a veterinarian hospital. I'm telling stories and still making sure animals get the care and attention they need ( Read more... )

I am currently living in a house full of animals! I love it!! Seriously. Right now, we have two dogs and a cat. The dogs can pretty much go anywhere (with one or two restrictions), but the cat has to stay confined to one room because of roommate's allergies. That room is not our due to us not wanting a litter box where we sleep, but Angelo doesn't ( Read more... )

Me: This discussion of cheese is making me want cheese.
Angelo: Yeah, me, too.
Me: There is cheese.
Angelo: I'm sure there is.
Me: You know me well.

Naomi (naomi_jay) told me about some DELICIOUS sounding cheese that she was enjoying (sounds good to Angelo, too!) and from there Angelo and I started talking about going into NYC to a cheese shop. He knows my ( Read more... )

Yesterday I put on Facebook that I'm in love with my life. And I am. Last night I walked along the Hudson River on my way to the train station. The full moon was shining bright overhead, casting light on the water below, and I just couldn't believe that I have the life I have ( Read more... )

Amber (kitty_bangbang) made this. The pic is of her dog, Kingston. <3

So, my latest online obsesssion is Hyperbole And A Half. I've known about this little blog for a long time, but only ever bothered to read whatever Allie had most recently posted instead of going back through her archives (with the one exception being the one about never growing up). Well, yesterday and today, on breaks from writing I began going ( Read more... )

Normally, I don't do reposts, but this angered me to NO EXTENT because there is NO EFFING REASON to treat an animal this way. At the very least the cutie could have been taken to a local shelter. (I saw this on lupabitch's livejournal, for reference!)
