At the hospital for knee surgery round two! Hopefully this will solve my issues!!
 
And now my mom is in the hospital overnight to monitor kidney function. I guess we shouldn't have joked yesterday that she only needs one kidney? Whoops... Can't really deal with anything else right now, so the universe better pick on another family for a while.
 
Yesterday, I found out I still have 2 more surgeries to schedule. R ankle needs ligament reconstruction after 3 months of worsening pain with variable swelling. And the R wrist repair failed and needs to be fixed. Last night I fell asleep early and woke up sick. But the termite treatment was scheduled for this morning so I had to be up. They found even more damage for me to replace. It's just never-ending. I have 2 classes to plan (start next week) and can't access some important documents.

now imagine fewer words and more symbols, and absolutely no explanation behind it because your professor cant actually string words together to form a coherent sentence let alone teach. multiply by 4 months and you have the nightmare therio class we had when i took it. oh yeah, and the quiz is next tuesday. :annoyed:

Haha, he actually explained everything pretty well... it's just a bit of a disaster of a diagram. And I really, really don't care about cow sex. like at all.

But cow sex --> more cows --> more yummy things that I can eat. Like ice cream. And cheese. and beef.

Doesn't work for me! I'm about 95% vegetarian, and tend to cook borderline vegan at home... 😛 But yeah, I absolutely understand that cow sex is important to the field at large, but in class it just kind of makes me want to hit my head on something.
 
My cousin brought his girlfriend to a huge family dinner with all my relatives (I was unable to be there). She is a vet tech at a clinic a few hours away. In the middle of dinner the topic came up that I was starting vet school. She asked my mom what school I was going to and then proceeded to yell, "that is a TERRIBLE school. We had students from there in my clinic and they were all complete idiots. I would NEVER hire anyone that went there to work in my clinic" and then went on to bash my school for the next ten minutes in front of everyone.
I'm sorry, but b**** please! The clinic you work at is not YOUR clinic and you aren't hiring anybody anyway. You are a tech who has worked there for two years. Plus, this school was by far my first choice school and all the vets I know are super impressed with students from there. But now my entire family probably thinks that my school is a joke. grrr. 😡
 
Going to the doctor Monday. all signs and symptoms point to diabetes. I am terrified about starting school in a week and really doubting if I can handle it. 🙁
 
Someone decided to use my bank account to reload two different starbucks gift cards for $100 each. I'm so angry right now, I hope they choke or spill hot coffee on their crotch. 😡

I get angry when I have to answer a NAVLE prep question about how to help a client breed their dog or cat. I want to say, "None of the above, you don't want to contribute to the overpopulation problem. You recommend adopting instead of breeding another litter of Persians."

But how will my kids find out about the miracle of birth?! And my Cocka-Shih-Poo is SO CUTE! She needs to have puppies! *runs away before redhead can throw things at her*

Minor NAVLE study rant (more of a whine, really): It's the NORTH AMERICAN exam. So why are there no Canada-centric questions, huh VetPrep? I've gotten questions on various American regulatory bodies, but nothing on Canada. Lots of "You're practicing in [this state]..." but no "You're practicing in [this province]..." North America doesn't stop at the 49th parellel, people. [/end rant]

Ugh, really? :lame:
 
Vet Prep is very California-centric. Lots of the toxic plants that they talk about and some of the infectious diseases have little to no relevance for the East Coast.

Did you JUST realize that Canada doesn't matter?

wait, people live beyond the 49th parallel?! I thought it was just frozen wasteland :-D
 
I can't sleep. I have only gotten about 3 hours of sleep each night for the last week other than the night of my birthday because I was drunk. Drunk sleep is surprisingly unsatisfying. I have a doctor's appointment next week to hopefully get some help. I did really well before with the occasional help of a benzo but I'm all out because it's been 2 years. Here's hoping I can get this under control.

After my amazing friends, poutine is the thing I will miss most about Canada. I know it sounds weird, but it is fantastic.

Disclaimer: I'm Canadian by birth...

But how the HECK can poutine sound weird?! It's fries, gravy and cheese. Every single one of these things are delicious. Gosh, I would pretty much eat my own arm if it were made of fried potatoes...

But it's not cheese, it's cheese CURDS.:barf::barf:

My mom was also born in Canada, but she hates cheese curds, so I would guess she also hates poutine.

I mean... you know you make normal cheese by separating out curds and whey, then just further processing the curds? It's not like a nasty by-product or something, haha. I'm also had way more variations of poutine with just normal cheese than cheese curds, even though it's not traditional. 😛

I love pretty much every variation of cheese...

I'm not the biggest fan of regular cheese, so to me they're just extra gross. 😛

I can get behind cheese curds after living in WI, it's the gravy that sounds disgusting.
 
I have been waiting for 50 minutes to be seen by my surgeon for my post OP appt. and when he finally walks in he will spend about 5 minutes with me and then jet out if the room. Grrrr.

Edit- he came in and spent less than 5 minutes with me. And now I'm at the 90 minute mark waiting to be discharged by his assistant. This crap is ridiculous.

Ugh. Biggest complaint about orthos is that right there.

I thought fries with gravy was common?

ummm, no.
 
Weird! I can get it at New York Fries, KFC, the Costco cafeteria and a number of sit down places here. I'm sure there's some I'm missing.

If there was something that could rival chocolate...that would be it for me. 🙂
