Dear Goddess, it's been a long week.

It all started last Saturday, when Telca woke me up at nine in the morning with the greeting "the house is broken". Not a very good way to wake up, (and an even worse way to spend the next five days). Turned out that our house was only receiving half power. So we called Hydro-Ottawa, who basically told us that it ( Read more... )

I have just stumbled upon the most horrifying thing that I have ever read or seen. I am actually feeling physically ill. I may just puke.

The Glamorous Kitten Killer Of Hangzhou

This.... this.... 'person', this souless thing, and those like her, take pleasure in torturing and killing kittens with stiletto heels. She.... she kills them! Just like that ( Read more... )

Tiva's okay!

The ultrasound showed no cancer, no tumors and nothing life-threatening!

*huge sigh of relief*

She looks pitiful right now though. When she had the ultrasound on friday, they had to shave the fur off her belly. So she's a lovely Malamute, until she rolls onto her back. I even asked the vets to shave her with dignity. I guess it didn't ( Read more... )

I have one word to describe my current state of health ( Read more... )

Okay. It's official. The Human Race has to be stopped. Where's an asteroid when you need one?

BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) - VIP guests at the grand opening of the night safari zoo in northern Thailand will not only be able to see exotic animals - they'll have a chance to taste them.

They're going to be chowing down on lions, tigers, elephants, giraffes ( Read more... )

Obviously, something, somewhere, took pity on me.

While the problem with the BMO is far from over, the money issue seems to be resolved for now. I'm letting my father fight with the BMO alongside my Financial Guy, because I just can't handle any more stupidity this month. My grandparents (on my father's side) are giving my folks cash presents for ( Read more... )

I swear, human stupidity is growing by the HOUR!

A few months ago, I had to declare bankruptcy. My disability pay for my depression simply wasn't enough to pay my bills, and I had no other recourse. It wasn't a decision that I liked, or one that I even wanted to do, but I was between a rock and a hard place and the only way for me to survive and to ( Read more... )

My laptop's dead. Dead! It won't turn on at all! Completely unresponsive. What the fuck and I going to do?!!? There's a good three dozen fics and fic ideas and even chapters on my laptop!! What am I going to do?! I've lost them all! There's no way I can rewrite all of it, some of it was spur of the moment and CAN'T be rewritten ( Read more... )

Oh man, Toronto Maple Leaf fans can't be happy tonight! My Ottawa Senators beat them 8-0 at the Leafs own stadium! Eight to nothing! The boo-ing of the crowd could be heard over the TV broadcast. And the Sens fans that were in Toronto were practically busting out in their own private musicals. It's a good thing I wasn't in the stands, the insane ( Read more... )

Gah ( Read more... )
