I have a few meetings in the next couple of weeks that will determine whether I will stay here for a residency or not (I'm already committed to doing a Ph.D. here). That's nervewracking but not the rave. The rave is that one of the neurologists is just being so great about this and going to bat for me so much that I just feel like even if I don't end up staying here, I do have someone that will fight on my behalf and that makes this whole stupid process so much easier...

I guess what I am saying is that I am so grateful for all of the support that I have at this school.
 
Job offer!!! Wasn't my first choice clinic, but it's an offer!! And they're offering bank (which totes helps!)) Going to keep it on the backburner for now while I wait on other options. BUT I HAVE A JOB POST-INTERNSHIP!
 
Ahhh, I love Vet Ranch so much. Dr. Matt just came out with a new Youtube video on his OfftheRanch channel. He hung up the Gold Play Button plaque in the Vet Ranch main clinic. I am so happy right now 😍:claps:
 
😍My husband's home after his 2 month trip, so happy. I haven't been able to talk to him too much since I've heard back from all the schools I applied to so it's nice to finally be able to discuss it all.
 
I've been saving my pennies to get my older dog an appointment at the local orthopedic surgeon/rehab place. Pet insurance doesn't cover exam fees, so I needed to get the money together for that.
Come to find out they waive the consult fee for referring vets, and her insurance will cover 90% of any actual treatments! Here's hoping she's a good candidate for PRP or joint injections of some sort.
 
I'm on a 5 days off staycation currently.

Day 1 (yesterday): Didn't get out of pj's, did nothing.

Day 2 today: Mani/Pedi time. Currently getting this done. So amazing.

Day 3 tomorrow: Getting the hair done

Day 4: Casino with mom

At some point I'm going to get a tattoo.

So completely awesome.
 
It's been a good weekend even though I haven't gotten as much stuff done as I should. Saw Get Out on Friday night (just as excellent as its Rotten Tomatoes rating would lead you to believe), had a great shift on small animal emergency yesterday, and then went to the zoo with friends today. Had delicious barbecue afterwards and watched Blazing Saddles.

We'll just pretend I studied for virology somewhere in there

My brother was watching Blazing Saddles yesterday. You must share a wavelength. 😛
 
Just took my last midterm EVER! 🙂 Which is exciting, even though it was super hard after our professor told us countless times it would be the easiest one. No... No it was not, lady.

I wish I hadn't believed her haha maybe I would have studied harder for it... Or maybe not 😛 The motivation this weekend was zero
 
I ranted about my sucky upcoming week yesterday, but our clin path test is now pushed back to the friday after spring break! Now I only really have the practicals and Parasitology to worry about...getting clin path moved is a HUGE weight off
 
I have my laptop back! It is also my same old laptop with the same info/data on it just repaired!

The part that makes me happiest is that I have my calendar back. Between my love of overbooking myself, my terrible memory, and not always being super organized, this last month without my calendar was rough. Usually I immediately type out any and all due dates, plans, and hangouts into it and then evaluate my week based on what I have planned.

They also gave my computer back to me broken in another way, but I am not sending it back until exams are done.

Does this mean they left your doorstop photos untouched?
 
This weekend, I'm running in a half marathon/5K to benefit rescued cats and kittens.

That's me hopping over some other runners in the race ... I wish I had four paws! :cat:

Is this the trail race we previously talked about?
 
I was really bummed that I didn't make the cut for Banfield's SJP and I was starting to stress about having another partially 'wasted' summer like last year. I was coming to terms with having no job this summer and just spending my time working on my boyfriend's house, but I got a call today from the vet at a clinic right by my boyfriend's house who not only sees exotics, but was a vet at the two zoos within driving distance (connections!). I had emailed the clinic my resume not expecting to hear back. She wants to meet with me to discuss doing an internship-type thing with her this summer before I head to Atlanta for my externship. I'm so excited :soexcited:! I have no idea if she intends on making it paid yet, but honestly I'd rather do an internship-type thing with a doctor who sounds amazing than paint and landscape every day this summer :laugh:

Edit: Although this is great, it also gives my boyfriend bragging rights since he has been telling me not to worry because "things will work out, just wait" all week 🙄 I hate when he's right 😛

I have scheduled an appointment with an experienced pet groomer (who specializes in cat grooming) for my cat to receive a proper cat pedicure.

I have never hired a pet groomer before - and I hope my cat doesn't go ballistic.

But, I'm not holding my breath ... not even a little bit.

My cat hates having her nails trimmed - and pitches a huge hissy fit - as if we're trying to kill her, or something.

The rest of the time, she's a purring little angel - except when we cut her nails.

I caved and ordered a Cardiology IV stethoscope (in plum of course 😀 ), and I LOVEEEEE IT. LOVEEE😍

I tried someone's IV and it sounded so nice! I wish I could justify it with 6 weeks of clinics left and the fact I already own a Cardio III haha. And I don't need one for the next year.
