Just watched my whole life (fiance, pups 😍 and cat) drive away into a storm for the next 12 hours. I'm just hoping and praying they get their safely. I'd go nuts if I lost them. I hate stupid anxiety. Now I'm in my hotel room sulking bc I had to leave my pups for the first time in 8 years. :cry:

Oh, and I have to go live with my cousin and his wife, both whom I love, and their 8 year old BRATTY child that handcuffed me and locked me in a car yesterday in 90 degree weather 😡
NCState peeps... We should meet up. Like every night. 🙄

Yeah I'll be adjusting and figuring out my stay for the first couple days anyway. Congrats to you and the hubs! 😀
 
GoT?!? Like WHAT?!?

If the season ends the way I hope it will according to the books, the next episode should make you feel better inside.

Red Wedding = worst scene I have ever read in a series for my emotional well being....
 
I've been having either good days, or bad ones.

Today is a bad one. 🙁 I just want to skip trig and calc and go home and fall asleep cucooned with my dogs.

SO's dad really bummed me out last night. His response to us moving at the end of the year for my school was (to SO): "well that doesn't mean that you have to go."

I've been around for almost 5 years and I'm still refered to as a disposable option.

Self esteem is just awful.
 
My pup was back at the vet this morning. He has been vomiting on and off for almost 6 months. D/x with pancreatitis, has been on chopped turkey and rice for 2 months, and has still had bouts of vomiting. Bloodwork was relatively normal except for mild pancreatitis. Ultrasound this am showed possible thickening of small intestine, suggestive of IBD (thankfully nothing that looked like cancer). If he has one more bout of vomiting, imed wants to scope him. My poor puppy 🙁 Please keep Sage in your thoughts.

Same here.... I have been ousted by my boyfriend's family because HE decided to move with me in the fall for school. They have made my life horrible since he decided to move with me. We have been together four years and I am disposable as well. His mom writes these horrible emails to him about me (in addition to saying it right in front of me) and how "evil" I am for taking him away from his family. How vet school is ridiculous and that she would be fine with him moving with me if I was trying to become a "real doctor".

Sigh.

Gosh that is harsh.....hugs. is his dad at least supportive?
SO's dad is extremely passive aggressive so at least he doesn't say terrible things to my face. I talked to his mom (who is very supportive and has always been) and she mentioned that he said the same thing to her about us moving, and apparently thinks that I'm ruining SO's dreams and running his life. Its so hard to pretend to be happy around him when I know he hates our relationship even though he is friendly upfront to me...like we've been on family vacations together. I don't think its anything personal against me....SOs parents got married young and it ended in bitter divorce. He's trying to live his life over through his son but its really crappy. SO and I have talked in great lengths about our dreams and wishes and we both have a mutual agreement that he is not going to get in the way of mine and I don't expect him to allow me to get in the way of his. I just, idk. Its like SO's father views me as this golddigging, succubus of a person who is ordering his son around but I truely am not.
 
Oh, and SO's mom also mentioned that his father is concerned that SO hasn't had enough dating experience and wants him to go "sow his oats" so to speak. SO and I have also had lengthy conversations about this too and how I would understand if SO felt this way (I was only his second GF). I have also extended an offer of a break period for him to go and get it out of his system a few years ago. I also believe that he genuinely has no interest in that either because he outright declined and said I was being silly.

I'm not making him marry me (I have no intrest in that until after school) and I've always been supportive of his dreams even when his father wasn't.
 
Ugh. Kudos to you all for being able to deal with all that. I honestly don't know if I could. Having my family like my SO (or at least be civil with him) is a huge thing for me. My mom comes from a larger family where everyone is super close, and while I only have one sibling I want everyone to be able to get along. I know it's not a deal breaker for a lot of people (and I'm not sure it necessarily would be for me) but it's something I definitely would prefer to avoid if possible.

If it helps any, my future father-in-law hates me simply because I don't share his relgious beliefs. He constantly told my fiance to break up with me or convert me, that I was a horrible influence, and nearly exploded when he found out we were engaged. He barely bothered to get to know me, and he's super controlling. I know how you feel but don't feel down. They just have issues and take them out on whoever they can find.
 
I could go on for days and days about this subject, but SO's mom called me the "see you next Tuesday" word in front of his entire family at our 4th of July cookout 1 week after I moved across the country to be with him. Because SO didn't want his brother's girlfriend's kids staying the night at our house. Had NOTHING to do with me :laugh:
Needless to say, we don't get along. But the rest of his family always has my back when it comes to her. Her own family hates her.
And it makes me sad bc I've always wanted a good relationship with my mother in law. Impossible with her. The manipulation this woman uses is beyond anything you could even believe. I truly feel like she's the devil walking the earth.
 
This job application website is the worst. I have to click past an ad every time I finish a page, and I'm not sure it even submitted. I really hope I find a job in the next few days so I'll be working long enough to be worth it to them before I leave for vet school.

In other news-that-isn't-news, being broken up with still sucks and nothing is okay.
 
I can't sleep again. Knowing someone was assaulted on my street is just making me anxious and bringing back bad personal memories. 🙁

I married that guy (and vice versa for him) and it worked out pretty well. Oats schmoats.
 
I know I probably sound pathetic by now but I feel miserable. I finally got it al under control and stopped being all emotional about the breakup. I wanted a normal conversation with him because I realized that I just couldn't let it go until we talked about it all at least.

Well it started out well. And then I realized he kind of sounded like he missed me a bit too. And then I got a naked picture of him. What? And he started talking about sleeping with me and not being sure what would happen when he'd see me again to get his stuff. And I admit, I had a little hope by then that maybe we could work it out. Maybe he did like me and wanted to try just a little bit.

Until he said he was kidding. It was a joke and he didn't mean anything by it. What? I finally got it all under control and felt a little better about myself and then that? I'm a total mess again. It's not fair. I never thought he'd play like that. He seemed better than that. That's why I liked him. He was so responsible because of his daughter and so careful about who could meet her etc. And then that last night.

I can't help but feel very upset all over again.

I can see why you are upset, you have every right to be, but let me just try to help you with a lesson I taught myself that changed my life a few years ago. When you start to get upset and sad about this complete chode monkey, turn the sadness into anger instead. You'll feel sad and lonely, and like he played you for a fool 🙁, and then you say, "Wait, this guy is a chode monkey not worth my tears. What a complete arse hat. What kind of douche canoe acts like that? Damn he's not worth my time. How dare he think he can treat me like that. F this guy!" 😡

It helped me :shrug:
 
I've tried that. It never really works. I'm an angry crier too and that just reminds me of how upset I was in the first place and start the whole problem again. Haha

Went thru similar with of my dogs....has IBD. We scoped but it is really not necessary. Just have them treat. We changed diet to hydrolyzed proteins... No more turkey, chicken etc. plus drugs +\- steroids. Has kept it under control (till last week) for 2 years (drugs only for about a month, diet ongoing)
 
Excuse while I clap gleefully over here. Misery loves company, and now most of America knows the pain I felt when I read that chapter in the book.

Yup.



In my own rant: my knee that's been giving me issues gave out yesterday then started hurting a ton more. So much for RICE and NSAIDs. They haven't really made a difference in the 2 weeks since I saw my dr. I'm sure I could rest better but I have work on a regular basis and my techs look at me like I have sprouted a second head when I ask for the 79lb dog to be lifted onto the exam table

Same crap when I hurt my back. I hope your knee starts to feel better!





Pp, block his number and stop talking to him. You WILL get over it, just takes time. What a douchecanoe (my favorite word of emiloo's:laugh:)

Seriously best word ever. And PP, relationships like that are always tough because it's hard to get angry when the other person is so hard to read. I'm sure he meant the whole " I miss you" charade but realized that he didn't want to continue a relationship, so made up the bs about being kidding. If he pulls that again, tell him no ("nahhh, not in the mood for sexy times with you") and that you don't miss him....tell him you've moved on and actually do it! ACT INDIFFERENT. Put on some nice clothes and get done up when you see him. Try to act composed. People like him want to see you falling to pieces from missing him so much. He's a sociopath that will only get worse. I can confidently say that because I had an ex do the exact same thing to me over and over until I eventually got myself together and stopped answering.

I'm not a proponent if stooping to someone's game playing level but sometimes you have to for your own sanity.....to this day it burns my ex inside that I don't cry over him.

My rant: my stomach...

I had to call in today because I've been camped out in the washroom all morning. Can't keep anything down. All I can think about is how shorthanded work is and how short my check will be. Ugh.
 
The highlight of my day was sitting in the backseat of a clients car doing chest compressions on their dog at 70 mph in the wrong lane en route to the critical care center. 🙁
 
Knowing SOs father doesn't want us together is really bumming me out. He is SO nice in person...how can someone be so nauseatingly fake? I guess it's better that way. Having someone around who is so vindictive, unhappy, and waiting for the opportunity to see me fail is exhausting. Dealing with it at work and in my relationship.
 
Now I know what fainting feels like. Haha Got my third rabies shot and as I was standing there to make my next appointment, I fainted. Good thing I said I wasn't feeling well while it happened and they already called someone over.

It also hurt a lot more today. I didn't even feel getting the first two and had no problems afterwards. But I guess when someone stabs you like they're throwing a dart, the experience might be a little different..

I found they were worse each sequential vaccine. The third one made me way more sore than the first two.

Ugh, this makes me cringe.. I haven't gotten mine yet.. And may not get them till school starts.. But this makes me want to get them sooner rather than later!

I wouldn't be TOO worried about it. It seems like it makes more people feel yucky than your average vaccine, but I think it's mostly soreness. I just didn't want to get punched in the arm afterwards. Might make you feel a little run down and sore, but I wouldn't count too much more than that.

I would really recommend getting them before school starts. I didn't have any problems, but PP is not the first person I've heard that has passed out because of them. A lot of people end up feeling crappy/with fevers for a day or so. You definitely DON'T want to deal with that during classes.

Yes! I have no clue where or when they taught people to administer shots this way, but it hurts like crazy! Just give me a shot like normal...😡

Yeah, I've never understood that about human vaccines. I guess they want to make it quicker, but then they end up jabbing the whole friggin needle in and it just stinks.
 
Murgh...and I thought I was brave for getting tetanus out of the way early. Now I must hunt down rabies vaccinations...they're hard to find!
 
Ugh, NOT looking forward to that...hopefully the hospital will order the vaccine for me. The travel clinic is more expensive than getting it at school, especially if I have to pay an office visit fee every time.
 
I second the recommendation to get them done before school starts. I had mine done for a job years before school but I felt super awful the day after my second one - fever, muscle aches, etc - and I know at least one classmate had to miss the day after one of hers as well. I tend to have pretty strong vaccine reactions, but it's still something you'll want to be prepared for.
 
Just realized our physical forms/immunization forms have to be in by June 10th. Good thing my physical is scheduled for the 17th. :smack:

I didn't even feel the needle the first two times but while this lady was coming at me, I was like uh oh... If the titter isn't high enough and I have to get another shot, I'm asking if one of the first two ladies can give me the shot. Haha

I only felt bad for like 5 minutes and then I was fine. At least in terms of being dizzy. Got a slight headache on the way home and my jaw and arm started hurting. Took a nap and only my arm hurts now.
 
I absolutely hate being lied to and it infuriates me to no end. I can't get into details but I'm just THAT mad that I had to yell somewhere before I punched a hole in a wall. 😡 UGH, now I have to go to work. Life, you suck.

I'm sorry. 🙁 I'd rather have an ugly truth vs a pretty lie.
 
Cat bite middle finger because my assistant can't hold a freaking cat. And of course it's at the freaking joint. I could kill him for not properly stretching the cat
 
Train from Stuttgart to Amsterdam left at 9:10 and was supposed to arrive at 2:30. Due to an apparent fire near the tracks, didn't get to the city until past 7. Had a good dinner and a few beers and wandered around downtown for a bit at least. Past midnight now and I'm sleepy

I'm the world's most giant baby about needles and mine went totally fine. I don't know anyone in real life who had a hard time with them. It's just one of those things where you aren't likely to say anything about it unless you have a bad experience.
