But it does get better. And it gets easier to focus on the good memories and not just the way everything fell to pieces. And it gets to the point where you can have a dream about them and wake up smiling inside of crying. I promise.

Hang in there, and if you want to talk, let me know.

Thanks everyone. This whole "healthy grieving" thing is totally new to me. I do see the light at the end of the sad tunnel. All these feels are kicking my ass. 😕
 
Boy broke up with me yesterday over text because he couldn't do it in person the day before on my birthday. Instead he made me feel horrible all day that day because he was being so distant. Felt really rejected that day.

For how long we've been dating, I am way too upset about this. I know it has to do with things my last bf did and that I didn't let myself date and like someone until him, but still. I am incredibly upset and wish it would just stop.

So wait, he bought you pretty flowers and then dumped you like one day later? Who does that?

A florist?

jk.

Sounds like a lame guy all around.

He should have used my time-honored method.... stop returning all phone calls, messages etc until they get the idea. 😳 Well, maybe not...
 
Boyfriend's mom asked me when I finish vet school if I would be qualified to open my own pet shop or would I need another course. Umm what? :bang:
 
SO's brother (prettymuch my brother too. We all lived together for 3 years.) lost his best friend last year to a drug overdose. The girlfriend of the late friend (who was over at our house with him ALL the time) killed herself last night.

18 years old. So overwhelmingly sad. Is this what being an adult is like all the time, or am I just having a really crappy year? 🙁

Wow. Thats the best *****ic question I have heard so far (With regards to someone being in/starting vet school)!!! Face palm...
 
So I'm watching a friend's cat, who is super nice and likes to cuddle but I have to keep him in my bedroom because of our dog. I'm so tired because he keeps me up all night. Last night he pounced on me several times in the middle of the night and then around 6 AM decided to play viciously with his floor scratching post and fling it all around the room. He even knocked over his water bowl.

Really like the cat, but I also really want to sleep.

Crappy year.

I'm so sorry, MommaFox, I hope you get some breathing room now to grieve completely.
 
He bought me flowers for my birthday Monday. Then he broke up with me yesterday. We're finally kind of talking about it. We both messed up and rushed it too much. Talking here and there helps and we'll see what happens.
 
I am on the edge of a nervous breakdown because I have to leave my two loves (pups) for a month. I've never been more than 2 weeks (and only bc i was trapped in Ireland) without my baby girl in 8 years! :cry: I can't see them for 4 weeks and I'm legitimately tearing up like an idiot 🙄

And then it starts to make me wonder how I'll get through when she dies, and then that makes me more sad, and now I feel like I'm on a ridiculously irrational, unhealthy, obsessed merry go round. :uhno:
 
Sooo... my laptop just fell on my toe, like the entirety of its weight on one toe. I put it fully on the bed but near the edge and got up to plug my phone in. Apparently it didn't like that idea and landed right smack at the base of #4. I guess we'll see how swollen it is tomorrow. Can't go one week without hurting myself...

My...ex now I guess, was totally cuddling with me as we watched cartoons earlier the same night he broke up with me. He was going to kiss me goodnight too if I hadn't said that if he wanted to talk to me (which we both knew meant break up) he should do it then. Which indicates that he doesn't actually want to break up with me and makes it so darn hard to actually accept.

Also, what I came here to rant about: we missed our flight from Cambodia to Cheng Mai because our guide read the connecting flight's time, not the time we were supposed to leave here. So now we have to stay an extra night in Cambodia, my least favorite part of this trip, and miss some of what we had planned in Cheng Mai, which was the part of the trip I was most looking forward too. It sucks.
 
Sooo. A dachshund was attacked by a dog and had his leg broken, taken to a vet, the O didn't have money so minimal care was given, taken home and ATTACKED AGAIN BY THE SAME DAMN DOG. His leg was dangling by skin with bone exposed with the damn cast hanging there. The O then dumped the dog on an old lady they knew that doesn't have a phone or car and can barely walk, who had the dog like this for 5 days. Neighbor went over to check on the old lady, freaked, and called Dog Town, my favorite local rescue.

Anyway, he was brought in yesterday afternoon. We're amputating today. I'm going to foster. (and probably wind up with another special needs wiener lol)

Something similar happened a few months ago at the hospital I work at. Girl adopted a little puppy from the humane society, took the puppy home, left the puppy unattended with their adult unsocialized dog and the adult dog attacked the puppy. Puppy came in with punctures all over her body. We cleaned her up but she really needed to be monitored overnight but the owner didn't transfer her to the ER as directed. Vet talked to the owner about surrendering the puppy but the owner wouldn't, left puppy alone again with the adult dog, and the second time around the puppy didn't make it. People make me so mad 😡

i'm leaving my dog for the first time ever tomorrow for 2 weeks and i feel sooooo guilty!! i've had her for 5.5 months now and the longest we've been apart is over night once when she stayed with a friend when i went turtle watching. i dont want her to think i've abandoned her like the last few people did in her life :sad:

guinea pig is another story. every time i leave her i bawl for hours and days haha. that little booger owns my heart and soul x100! shes also on the elderly side so i have that fun merry go round too 🙁

i dropped a laptop on my right hand ring finger once - owwwwww. it was so swollen and i had a knot in the muscle for months! speedy healing! :luck:
 
My foot (the broken one) hurts so badly. Packing to move for the summer, up and down stairs, carrying heavy crap all by myself... I just want to cut it off. I have so much more to load still. *sigh*
 
Oh hey, and the first flight out is all booked so I can't leave until noon/get where I was going until 4. Which means I'm missing everything that was planned for today (in the place I actually really wanted to go). I don't want to do nothing all day and worry about missing the flight again, especially when I should be doing awesome stuff in Cheng Mai! 😡 😡
 
I own no socially acceptable clothing. All I have are scrubs, tshirts and hoochie momma club attire. Sigh. I cant have nice things. 😳
 
We were informed today that because of when the 3rd years' interyear break falls next year, we have to do our last rotation for 4 weeks instead of 3. I have to be a 4th year for a whole extra week and I will be on radiology. So much for that vacation my husband and I were planning for that extra week between clinics and graduation.

It's actually a lot better than I thought it would be. It bled and is bruised a little but no swelling and I can walk normally. Thank goodness for small miracles right?
 
So sick of jaw pain! I had upper jaw surgery nearly 14 years ago. Every time I eat bagels, I get terrible pain along the upper jaw under my nose and on the sides of my nose(where the plates/screws are). You would think I would learn not to eat bagels, but nope. I keep forgetting.

Probably been a year since I bought some and I had some earlier this week. I don't think it should hurt like this, but I don't have insurance right now to go get it checked out.
😡
 
Minor rant: There is this really cute adorable Boston Terrier in rescue that I want. He's recently had both his eyes removed for some issues and the updates from foster care say he's doing so well. But I can't have another dog, as I already have two, and my husband said he doesn't think he can take care of a blind dog anyway. For some reason, this little dog keeps tugging at my heart. I know he'll get a great home, but I can't help but want to help him. It must be the vet student in me.
 
Watching SOs brother struggle with the loss of his friend is awful. Nothing compared to what he is going through but I care for him so much and seeing him hurt...ugh.
 
Omfg you guys. Ok. So I was gifted with some sessions at a tanning salon. I was thinking "great! I can get a base and not burn!" Weeelll. Went last night, told them I'd never been and that I burn really easily. I had the very best bed and went for 6 minutes. I'm a ****ING LOBSTER!!!!! The worst is that it's everywhere. Even my boobs and my butt cheeks. It would be funny if it were someone else but I'm so miserable. I'm at work today and I have to work tomorrow (including a fast paced vaccine clinic) and I feel awful.

6 minutes?! Holy crap! I did 20 minutes three times a week for several weeks and only got maybe half a shade darker. I did get super itchy though. Tanning beds suck. 🙄
 
He told me he misses me today. And "I feel so bad. You can't imagine." Really? I can't imagine? You must feel so much worse than me. Boohoo.

I've felt like hitting something this whole time. I think if he had said that to my face, I'd probably have punched his. I was so angry.

Yeah I have 9 sessions left! I'm giving that crap away.

Did you wear tanning lotion? And i second the lotion thing so you dont peel. When I used to tan I would only do 5 minutes for the first 10 sessions then slowly up the time.

The last time I went (and will ever go) I told the lady I only wanted 10 mins...repeatedly, like every single time i had been in there for the past month. I got in and immediately fell asleep. I woke up when the bed shut of and he timer said 20 MINUTES. I have never been so rude to a store worker before in my life. Cancelled my membership, demanded a refund and never went in a tanning bed since. They mailed me aloe...I went back and apologized for yelling....but omg sunburn of my life....and it was EVERYWHERE.
 
Well, I've been doing aloe religiously. And I wore color guard only to protect my tattoos. I was told that since this is such a HIGH END bed that it shouldn't burn me at all unless I was in for a really long time. I warned them I burn really really easily.

And trust me, I know how funny the butt cheeks part is... :laugh:
 
Getting my vaccines up to date for school. I got a booster shot this morning and now my WHOLE DARN ARM is sore! Argh!!!! I can't even move it without pain. I knew I would react like this, I always do, but it still sucks. 😡
 
Just a really long, fatiguing sort of day. Got called in early to deal with a seizuring dog. 6 surgeries and 3 were cutting, 3 were dental. 2 pets (one a long time client and 1 was the seizuring dog) where clients elected humane euthanasia. EVERYTHING else came in sick. Including a dog that is urinating almost straight up blood. Left late.

Bright spot to the day? Had a great lunch with some good company.
 
Laying in bed crying after very slowly climbing in. It hurts so so bad. I have small blisters in quite a few places. I really want to call in tomorrow but there's no one to cover and my boss would be pissed.
