👍👍I hope they use Cousins more..former QB of MSU😀

I remember him. He gave Notre Dame (my undergrad) one helluva time during football season...He's a pretty darn good QB IMO.
 
My friend (who was supposed to be my third housemate) came up to visit this weekend! It's been awesome times. AND it sounds like she'll be back properly next semester!
 
Got my rats!
They don't have names yet since I can't tell them apart. One is very shy, so that might be one way...

One squeaks quite a bit. I don't think it's a URI because her breath is not wheezy... well, I hope it isn't anyway. Hopefully the interwebs will point me in the right direction for that information.

A teaser shot (lemme know if it works... I am uploading from my phone)

Oh yes. I had a interview at Chapters and I've been guaranteed part-time work as long as my references check out. I should be hearing from them soon. I have an interview at a chemistry lab tomorrow. They are looking for sample preps in organic and inorganic chemistry. I applied because I was hoping some of my skills from working in a molecular lab and taking chemistry courses would be handy. I actually get really high marks in the lab sections. Theory blows, hence why I cannot get into vet school.

Olivia and Josie were lab rescues that I fostered for a little bit 🙂 they were super terrified as they acclimated to being pets. they sure did love pet life though once they got used to it!

Penny is my darling little tan and white piggie in my pic 🙂 love of my life! i <3 her 😍
 
I got my TV stand today and my internet hub today. TV should arrive tomorrow and everything will be set-up and ready to go on Thursday!! So effing excited for this!! I have been waiting forever!! 😀 😀 😀 😀

Aww ... that's sweet! Mine is a rescue from a family that couldn't keep her because their kids had "allergies". She was super friendly when I got her but now she screams every afternoon around veggie time and will bite me if I try to hold her. The family told me she was 7 years old when I adopted her, making her 9 years old now ... which I find hard to believe. I attribute her dislike of being held to her age but then she looks great when she runs around 😕

Picture of Rosie attached 🙂

When I did a lab animal handling class, we dotted the dorsal part of the tails with a sharpie to be able to tell all the albinos apart - one dot for the first, two second, etc. Maybe try that?

They're adorable. 😀

My mother found a hat cleaning up from a local folk festival...

(There are about 15 more pictures of her in this hat. She was a very good girl.)

There's a toolbar over the top of the area where you type your response. Click the little paperclip 🙂

I just haven't figured out how to get pictures to show up in the thread, rather than just attaching.

After you attach it, you click on the paperclip again and select the picture.
 
Curled up with my kittens and took a nap. Somehow I managed to forgot there's a mastiff living with me and nearly had a heart attack when I woke up with his huge face staring at me. Then Samson gave me a kiss. Thank goodness everyone's getting along and Samson's more comfortable here.
 
Just picked up my first paycheck at the university. I'm getting paid $2/hr more than originally told!!!!!!!!!!! 😱:soexcited:

Saw my boss so I said I appreciated it and she said she knew I could use it and that I am an awesome student and employee!!!!!!! Omg omg!!!!!

When I get a chance to use my laptop, I'll look at Rosie's picture. M phone won't let me view them!

I heard about the sharpie trick. I'll have to do that.

They aren't quite albino. Their noses are a little darker. Their owner expects their nose and ears to turn brown like their mother's. We shall see.

They are a lot more care than gerbils. They pee a lot, especially in their sleeping log. I love the look of fleece liners in their cage. May have to switch over to bedding on the bottom?

They are litter trained thankfully. They just don't pee in it, which I kind of expected.
 
Got a job until the end of December! I will be doing water and soil sample prep at a lab. Yay!!!!!!!

Girl who can't get into vet school because her chem marks are dragging her average down just landed a job in a chem lab 😛

Remember that food animal infectious disease test that I was so worried about from the first lecture on? I kicked its butt! Got it back today and got a 98 on it!

Zany and PSILT: I agree on both counts! I fell in love with him in the preseason (yeah yeah, preseason schmeseason) and I think it's great that we've finally got a glimmer of depth at QB, even if it is a pair of rookies 😛

Also, to continue on my football theme, I won my first fantasy game 🙂
 
Homemade chocolate chip cookies. Simply can't be beat.
 
What is this pumpkin heaven that you speak of? 😱

Yes, do tell!

I am so looking forward to pumpkin flavored everything. My friend and I are planning a pumpkin dinner now that we actually have kitchens.

O-M-G Whole Foods has pumpkin and sage ravioli this time of year ... A-M-A-Z-I-N-G

I'm making pumpkin cookies with cream cheese icing. Because of all the talk of pumpkin. Thanks guys...
 
I'm not a huge pumpkin fan. I like pumpkin pie, but that is about it. And touching the inside of a real pumpkin makes my hands and arms itchy and red, so I don't tend to carve pumpkins during Halloween time.
 
I don't like pumpkin anything. Its nasty. But I like all other forms of squash.

butternut squash = amazing when roasted.

I think I like the mix of spices more than anything else. Bet thats why I don't like pumpkin pie but like the pumpkin spice lattes and cookies

Pumpkin gnocchi with a brown butter sage sauce... oh man that's yummy. ugh, pizza lunch meeting today.

And of course, seasonal pumpkin beers! Seriously, try this one if you can find it around you.
 
I have yet to meet a pumpkin food dish or beer that I don't like. Favorite flavor ever.

http://smuttynose.com/beers/seasonal_beers/smuttynose_pumpkin_ale.html

I've got ~10 lbs of pumpkin puree in my freezer from last years pumpkin season. Pumpkin breads are my favorite, I think. And pies. And cookies. And puddings - made the best pumpkin / gingerbread trifle for the holidays last year.

Or stuffed pumpkin - http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=130704456
Also good with acorn squash for a more "personal sized" meal, mmmm.

Pumpkin lattes. Pumpkin iced coffee.

I spend a LOT of time on pinterest looking at pumpkin recipes. So many I want to try!
 
The boyfriend texted me this morning "check your bank account" and saw he put in an unsaid amount of money in there 😱
He texted me again that he wants me to have a good breakfast and lunch before my exam, and a fancy after exam dinner and alcohol for me and a friend. Oh, and he paid my truck and student loan payment... just because 😱


😍
