Freudian slip?

And, if she can see those, it turns into "well if you have time to cook/bake/make pickles, you have time to call your mother."

Or "I tried to call you and I can see you were on facebook ten minutes ago, so why are you ignoring me? Im sorry I'm so annoying, I guess you dont love me enough"

Oh, that's unfortunate. Thank goodness my mom is okay with me borderline ignoring her for a couple weeks at a time. I do play Words With Friends with her though. That way, she knows I am alive...


My rant: my cat is having seizures.
 
I contracted a yucky cold from my boyfriend. But I also have a horrible cough. I cannot seem to ever get sick without having a cough. Thanks, mom, for smoking in the house during my entire childhood... My asthma is not helping this not being able to breathe thing either. POOP!!!!! 😡

However, it IS our anniversary today (1 year!!) and he is insanely good to me. Took me out for crepes and mimosas, and is now taking care of me 😍

Phone decided to go swimming while I am on an externship placement in another state 🙁

But Rave--Love the externship!
 
I have a list of rants for today:

My brother's cat threw a saddle thromboembolus and passed away today.
My boss that I have ranted about before likely paralyzed a guinea pig for life.
The same boss forgot to submit our order - so we are out of certain meds and may not get them for another week.

makes me want to rant about your rants.

Your job/boss/coworker is giving me ulcers.

You're telling me - I brought it to upper management and she made it out that she is the victim. She told them that she felt I was aggressively against her because I asked her to call me Dr. Dyachei instead of by my formal first name (that I never use). On the rave side, I've lost some weight as a result!
 
i've had a few squabbles in the workplace over the years... they still annoy me when i think of them. Some people are just petty or mean or *****s or whatever, and somehow they stick around like antibiotic resistant staph infections.

I'm sorry, hang in there! I give you a lot of credit!

Hang in there. Been through something similar, and it is not easy. My advice is you will need someone to talk to about this. It can be really hard to deal with.
My thoughts are with you.

"Having a crappy month" doesn't even begin to describe what you've been going through. To echo what SOV said, be sure to talk to someone if you feel the need. Things like this can really take a toll on every aspect of your life. Hang in there. :zip:

...the dancing monkey always makes me smile, hopefully it'll work on you, too.

Thinking of you Dyachei. You've had a rough go of it lately, hang in there, you're doing the best you can and you have support here if you ever need it 😍. thinking of you.
 
I'm so sorry Dyachei I agree you should get a do over for March. That sucks about the cat, your job, and I hope your brother (and you if needed) can get some assistance.

Let me know if I can be of any help

I am so sorry dyachei. I really hope things start to get better for you. Talk to someone if you need to. Those are some difficult things to deal with.

I'm so sorry to hear about this and your other news, dyachei. Is there someone you can talk to about your brother? There is a national suicide prevention website (google "national suicide prevention" and it comes right up) with contact information for those who are worried about friends/family. It might be worth talking to them or someone similar, for your sake as much as his. Hope things get better.
 
I was unfortunately reminded of how impressively cats retain their instincts at 5am this morning... we woke up to my cat ferociously trying to crack the skull of a mouse... it goes without saying that I didn't go back to sleep 😱
 
Ugh, Dyachei, I'd send you a genie with three wishes if I could 🙁

My rant is (petty in comparison) that my dog is sick. She seems to be doing better today but it just reminds me that she's getting older and older. Her hips have been acting up (they seem to when the weather changes) so she's been stumbling and looking pathetic more often than usual.

Rant #2 is that I've scoured the internet and cannot find a job for the summer. I called the SA hospital today and hopefully they'll take me back this summer. I'm hoping I can do part time there to earn a little cash but avoid as much drama and burn out as possible and do some shadowing with someone fun on my off days.
 
I really dislike my job. The supervisors are nice, but the managers.. ugh. And the full timer running the dish room sucks. We have a new rule where we have to ask to get a drink and have to sign put on a sheet for it (hello? kindergarden much?). In the dish room it's always really hot. I already don't drink enough during the day (I just don't get thirsty), so being in that room for hours makes me feel bad after a while. So I asked to get a drink and sit down. As soon as I did, the full timer running the dish room comes up and makes me get back to work. I didn't even get to take more than three sips of water. Five minutes later, I ran to the bathroom, because I got sick. And they had to send me home because of that. Thanks a lot. Losing money because of him and I feel awful now. ):
 
well, at least that biochem exam was only 1/3rd of the semester grade. :/

definitely didn't get your 100% mojo, jmj. 🙁
 
aw, thanks jmj.

i'm super hoping the curve works well in my favor. and partial credit. partial credit is basically going to be what ends up saving my grade if anything does.
 
Made a giant delicious pot of chili tonight, replete with fresh serranos, jalapeños, habaneros, poblanos, anaheims, and bells.

...then I took my contacts out. :boom:
 
I miss my friend 🙁 Can't believe it's been two weeks already.
A few of us have been working on memorial stuff, and fundraisers and things like that - getting facebook pages and websites up and running. We're trying to raise money to put her son through his first year of school at the private school that she and I attended together for 9 years. It's a really great school, a lot of the same teachers that we had still there, etc, but it's an expense her parents don't foresee being able to afford without help (This belongs in the raves, but our website has only been up for a week, and we've already raised over 2K)

Been doing that all evening instead of studying for tomorrow's final. Her twin brother posted an essay she wrote for an English class less than a month ago, and I keep reading it and tearing up. And then I go and look at old photos tear up even more. I hate being this far away from everyone 🙁
 
%@#$&!!!!!!! What else?!? Just drove out 6 hours to California and back missing both SI sessions for anatomy for my grandmother's funeral. Now I have a lab practicum tomorrow that I'm not feeling super prepared for. Then, because my siblings suck I will drive 6 hours BACK to help my mom who is devastated. Then 6 hours home Saturday morning and 6 hours out to a ranch to help with a cattle vaccine trial (which is admittedly cool) Saturday night. I miss home! And the freaking cherry is my flat tire that I changed like the bad ass woman I am. So purchasing new tires as well. When I have no idea because I need to limp to campus on my spare for my test .... %&$#%
 
This is going to be long and lame in comparison to other people's issues, but I just need to vent for a moment...

So I work at a wildlife rehab center as fill in during the winter and full time during the summer. This will be my third summer and last year was a disaster with staff change and I basically ran the place. We finally have a new coordinator (our highest position for someone actually working in the clinic) who's doing pretty well. But we're trying to figure out scheduling for the summer and somehow I'm the one getting shafted on hours. Our new coordinator was freaking out about staffing for the summer so our director/vet told her to go ahead and see if one of our volunteers would be interested in working. So apparently she misunderstood and went ahead and offered her a job for 30 hours this summer. Now, I've already told her several times that I would be working there, not maybe, was absolutely positive. And now I'm literally going to have no hours. I told the vet a month ago when this came up that I wasn't going to be ok with not having many hours, and she said they were going to guarantee me 30 a week. Which is perfect since I have another job on Sat and want to volunteer 2 other days a week.

I just got an email to confirm our staff meeting and the vet broke down what she wanted to do for scheduling. She says she wants to do two people 9-5 and one person 9-1 during the week along with 2 people on 9-1 Saturday and one person in to clean and feed on Sunday. Now, we already have our 9-5 M-F coordinator, another girl who's been there longer than me (but absolutely was a disaster last summer, as in a lot of animals died because of her ineptitude) who has a law degree and should be using it but isn't, myself, and this new girl they promised all these hours. Now the lawyer gets preference over me despite the fact that she stinks, which I understand, but if she's going to be full time that literally is going to leave me with no hours. I'm furious and hopefully we'll get this squared away at the meeting, but they always do this to people. Promise them hours and then say oh, just kidding! Or they shaft everyone on hours because they feel bad that they promised so many people hours. I absolutely love working there and don't want to do anything else this summer, but this crap gets old really fast...
 
Rant:
I cannot seem to pull my head out of my *ss and take care of the things I need to do lately. I've been needing to go to the dentist for months now, and everyday I wake up, say "I need to make an appointment" (how freakin simple is it to make an appt) but then just sit there all morning and don't do it. Then I find myself making stupid excuses like, I don't know where my insurance card is... then get off your *ss and find it, Emily! 😡

I have laundry all over the place... it is NOT hard to put laundry in a washing machine and wash it. It is NOT hard to get off your freakin arse every morning and just DO STUFF!!! What the hell is wrong with me? 😕

The only thing that got me out of bed today.... my roommate and his flavor of the week bangin it out on the other side of the wall. Could you BE more rude when you are in MY HOME?! BLEH! 😱

I have SOOOO much school work to do and I literally say I'm gonna do it everyday... haven't touched it in months. :scared:
I even cancelled my singing lesson on Monday because I didn't want to get out of bed at 1:00 PM!!! It was the ONLY thing I had to do that day. :nono:

I have been off my thyroid medicine for a while now, and have a dysfunction in my back that causes me to always be in pain and want to lay down, but I have never let it stop me in the past and sure as hell don't want to let it now.
UGH! GET IT TOGETHER!
:slap:

There is a rather large spider invading my work out space. I don't like spiders that are bigger than my pinky fingernail. And holy crap. It just started moving. It's ridiculously fast. It's probably one of those spiders that stalks you in your sleep or something. :scared:

:laugh:

You sound like me. I am not a spider fan at all. I would be running for the can of bug spray right now and I would probably use at least a quarter of the can on that one spider; I would have to make sure it is DEAD otherwise I would wonder where it disappered to....:scared:
 
I usually throw something heavy at them.

But my mom told me how she did that at work and many many little spiders came out of the big one. So now I'm scared that will happen and I don't know what to do anymore..

This happened to me! There was this huge spider in the bath tub so I grabbed the bug spray and started spraying and a million baby spiders went flying away from the one big one.

I was like
 
Problem solved. I got my mom to kill it. :laugh:

I contemplated killing it myself, but then it started moving and that was just too much for me. I'm really only scared of certain sized spiders and those millipede things that crawl on your walls and ceilings and are really fast. If I see one of those, I pretty much can not be in the same room as it until it's dead. Pretty much any other insect (okay...those mentioned earlier aren't insects but I'll classify them together for this purpose) is okay with me after taking my entomology class. I had a pet Madagascar hissing cockroach for the semester. Well, two. My first one got sick and died from a fungal infection even though I tried to save him by giving him baths. =( RIP Milford.


And in regards to baby spiders, a friend in high school had a bunch I guess come out of their little spider nest on her shirt by her neck. I guess it somehow got on there, and they all hatched during out lunch period. We all started freaking out and she took off her shirt and the principal was like wtf but then he figured out what was going on and things we okay. And she had a tank top on underneath so it wasn't a big deal really.
 
I love gravid spider mommies! Spiders are a large part of my "Why I should have been a boy" album on FB. 😉

My rant: husband leaves for a conference tomorrow morning and doesn't come back until Sunday night. Boo hiss boo hiss!

If you are being serious, I am sad we are not classmates. I think you would appreciate my tarantula collection.😀

Haha, same here. First it took Emiloo's post earlier to remind me that I had laundry I wanted to wash, and now your post reminded me that I should move that laundry over to the dryer.
Not sure what it says about us that the internet is how we remember to do laundry...
