I've known since I was in Texas what I wanted to for a profession. It's kind of been dormant because I don't have the finances or other means to get back to school for it and I don't know where to start. It also won't make that much money, but I know it makes me incredibly happy. Then there was this past week. I stopped by Bri's on Thursday after work to do some Tupperware shopping (which, by the way, I'm having a party, so if any of you want to go, e-mail me your address (ZenJuliet@hotmail.com)). When I got out of the car, she told me the bad news, Prilly had gotten hit and had just had her kittens a week or so ago. She was still alive, but not really moving much, we thought she had some head trauma. After about 30 minutes, she started seizing and Bri and I were bawling. I can't stand to see an animal in pain or suffering. I've known this, but the whole thing just made it that much more real, I want to work with animals, especially animal rescue, not animal control, because they do use euthansia and I am strongly against that unless it's in their best interest.
Then there's today, Bri needed to go out for mother's day and Prilly's kittens need to be fed, so when she asked if I would, I jumped at the chance.
Granted, I brought Rory here as well, and she was a little wary of the tiny fluffy thing in my lap, but I let her smell it, her eyes were wide with curiousity, but she didn't try to fight it, so that was good. Jessie also came over to keep me company (and play on the wii ;)).
As for mother's day, I sent my mother a box of her favorite sugar free chocolates and Jessie and I got his mother a popcorn popper with the stuff to make everything. Then I took her to breakfast this morning. Aside from being sleepy and frantic about how busy things are, it's been a good couple weeks. Speaking of busy...in 5 months, Jessie and I are taking a trip to Texas, w00t!
