At an animal welfare conference in San Diego, desperately hoping I'll get some time to enjoy the city before I leave ( Read more... )

I cared about baseball for two days and then we stopped getting Rich Harden photos. I mean, I care about the presence of baseball. I care about its arrival meaning the dreadful offseason known as winter is over. I care about white uniforms against a background of green grass and the sound of the ball hitting the glove. I took off for Opening ( Read more... )

Got my first post-promotion paycheck, and the idea of being able to travel to New Zealand by the end of next winter seems more of a possibility. It's early days yet, since I'm rebuilding my savings, but it just might happen ( Read more... )

So, the down side of getting three job offers is having to turn down two of them. I'm so bad at rejecting people. This is why I occasionally ended up on dates with boys I had no interest in ( Read more... )

So, I was just offered a job over the phone. As a veterinary nurse at a clinic I first applied to by fax this afternoon. I really need a place to live :P I also really need to finish my work here at this vet clinic, so I can leave soon and guilt-free.

- Lastnight we had a tornado warning, and Myr was reading off instructions from a weather website. Which was cute because, dood. I'm from Missouri. This stuff is ingrained into me. During tornadoes I have played cards in the basement, I have sat in a bathtub with a mattress over me, I have snuck out of the basement to peek out the window and ( Read more... )

So, boss told me not to plan anything for the night of Saturday the 24th because he's throwing me a sendoff party ( Read more... )
