Quick Update Before Bed
So, I finally got put on the schedule as a tech and let me tell you it's fucking awesome. My first day flying totally solo was fairly busy, but I think I soared through and pleased all. I am still working reception and kennel too, yeah I know I'm just Little Miss Overachiever. But, I'm a people pleaser, and I don't do well with leaving things, so staying in all departments actively seemed like my best option. While I'll admit there are days I loath this choice and beat myself up for it, in the end I feel like I will master this business sooner rather than later if I am up to date on it all. I don't really know what my goal is now that I am learning tech'ing. I guess I just want to rule VCA and be the best worker bee I can be. If something happens at home with the animals I guess I want to be able to execute emergency medical attention and quickly but calmly get them help. I know there was nothing I could have done for Maire, but if anything like that ever happens again, I want to be able to manage it.
On the home front all is peaceful. Snic and I are still doing great. It's funny, but we seem to go through stages where we're great and then stages where we are retarded for each other. I can't really explain it except to say that the chemical reactions we have around each other are either happening or they are exploding all over the place in a super charged kind of way. We seem to have found a good balance for motivating the other, which is one of the keys to functioning while living with someone, who knew?
My dad is still really excited about the wedding. Every Tuesday (our date night) he asks me about things like how do I want to wear my hair and what sort of dress I want. I admit this is very weird coming from my dad, but I think he is trying to urge me in a way my mother would have, since she isn't here. He also knows I have no one to discuss these matters with, since I can't seem to find a girl who can get past my prickly exterior. It's okay, I'm not whining. I see what my co-workers go through with their female friends and I wouldn't really appreciate that drama in my life. So, I'm glad my family is there for me and brings these things up, because I'm not one to focus on them any how. Which I need to do... soon.
All in all things are good. I have had some really bad days, but I have had some super great days, so I guess if you average it out I have days. On my bad days, I just remind myself that I am developing grace and poise and these are important attributes in a lady. On My good days I try to focus on the animals and Snic so they can come along with me and my happiness.
