(I bet this gets more comments than my last journal... I guess people don't wanna read about puppies dieing. Next time I'll talk about the concerts I go to and how wasted I get and that I make out with all my hot girlfriends all the time!)


PS - To those who didn't get it, the last sentence in the parenthesis is sarcasm tongue

I didn't realize how much I missed seasons either, until I was driving through the foothills. I'm hoping one day I can have a little place away from LA where you actually have to wear sweaters and scrape the ice off your car windshield in the morning.

And it seems to me you've accomplished a lot. You've found something you love in working with animals and are taking steps to learn and improve your knowledge in the field. That's a heckuva an accomplishment to me. smile miao!!

Roxy,

I'm curious - what was the infamous The Photo. I wonder if you could send me a copy of it just so I can see what all the fuss was about, way back when.

Thanks for the congrats in my last journal biggrin It feels absolutely amazing that I'm finally doing what I want with my life.

Friday was my first night. My very first patient as a working technician died on the table while we were trying to save him. He was a 2-day old puppy. It was horribly heart-breaking and really put a damper on the night and...

YAY!!

I just got my first paying veterinary technician job!! Well, technically, I'm a technician in training, but still!! No one reading this can understand how important and amazing this is. It really is the best thing to ever happen to me biggrin But of course now my time is beyond strained. Here's the breakdown:

Vet tech job: 21 hours a week
Job that pays bills:...

I had my wisdom teeth taken out this past Friday. One of the sockets (for some reason I hate that word) has been very painful ever since. Especially yesterday and today, ow. I went today for a recheck... the verdict is in... DRY SOCKET! Woooo!

So they packed it with meds and I have to go back Saturday, Monday, and Wednesday! God damn. Getting these...

YAY!! I will be there at 10am sharp, maybe a few minutes early to get a good table. smile
nbmcq:
Wisdom teeth = yikes. I'm supposed to have mine removed at some point, but I am avoiding that aspect of reality.

How is school kicking your ass if you are kicking it with A's?

That wildlife thing sounds awesome. I want to work with cute widdle foxes and other critters.

I think a fox may be my spirit guide. miao!!

Apparently my last journal upset some people. Let me explain myself futher.

I know that there are people on this site who consider me their friend and who I consider my friend. But I was thinking about really deep, really connected friendship. I was feeling extremely lonely and down, and I went through my phone and there wasn't a single person in there who I...

I feel like everyone on the planet already has enough friends.

I must've started late, because now there are none left for me.

I don't have any friends either.
jujubee:
I can't fucking believe you would say that Roxy. You also seem to say that a lot. It makes all of us around here who DO care about you feel like shit. I know for a fact Eric has tried calling you as well as me.

I am sans lip rings.

How sad.

I took them out sometime Friday afternoon, and they have been out ever since. I'm pretty sure they're closed by now. So I no longer have any facial piercings. I keep trying to play with them, my lips feel really naked!! I had them for seven years. I hate looking in the mirror, I feel like I look...

you can say that again.

the kitten is turning out to be super awesome. smile he's also completely insane in that 4 month old kitten way of either being totally inert and asleep or zooming about the house in hypernosis with his claws out. We've named him Ico Mihos Cat.

I'm better now.

Thanks for all of the kind words and offers of support, it was really appreciated. Sometimes life just piles up and you gotta dump all the shit somewhere or it'll eat you up. Ya know?

I turn 25 in six days. I know a lot of you will yell at me because you're older, but I don't like turning 25. It makes...

I haven't checked in with you in FAR too long, and it looks like I've really missed out on some cool stuff. What an AMAZING journey you've clearly had with these animals. Such character in their faces and love in your descriptions. Makes me feel like tearing up just reading your captions. Thanks for sharing with the group. smile

I'm glad you're well and look forward to seeing you again eventually - and maybe sooner, if you and your guy can make it to our "family and friends" screening of my new film, which will be sometime in October. Details when I have them.

Cheers. smile
joscelyne:
Oh my gosh, I want to hug all of those animals. Together. With my little arms.

I'm having some sort of fucking break down. I hate this fucking world and the people in it. No one gives a damn about anyone else. I'm so fucking tired of being beat down and walked all over at both jobs, with no one fucking caring. What the fuck happened to this world?! Overworked, underappreciated and turning so fucking jaded and cynical. Something I swore...

this is probably the sort of trite sugar coated bullshit that has you pissed; but people do care and for what it's worth, self worth is always a question of perspective. and having people who only saw one second of your life really car about you and offer to be there for you is not something to be downplayed. yeah the fact that you are atractive and pose naked isn't gonna hurt when it comes to winning guys/girls sympathies. but come on, i think you can tell by the quality of the posts that people are willing to be there for you and no matter what. not because of your tits and ass but because of the sincerity and need in that post. because of the person they see in and past the photos. YOU ARE NEVER ALONE. it may be a kind word from an older waitress at a diner or a sincere compliment from a stranger at a store, or christ a smile from a fucking kid on the street, but people do care. the trick is finding the ones you click with and i know that's not easy but they are out there and there will be a group of people you will gather to you who make you feel loved, completed, and desired in every way. you have to fight sometimes to see the good in humans because we are a flawed fucking species but don't ever doubt that there is love and respect and kindness in this world, sometimes it's just apreciating that it comes from people who always have their own problems and agenda's and aren't the selfless soul mates we all sometimes desire. i know you've had more than a few offers of an ear if you want to talk so i won't add to the list. but from the bottom of my fucking heart, things do get better and the passion and joy you will feel when they do will make this seem like some pale b movie horror flick. best wishes and my kindest thoughts. hugs and kittens and cupcakes and sunshine and late night giggles and all the things that make you smile. you deserve them
korvus:
It's been forever since I've seen you, but I still do care about you. I have unlimited long distance, so if you ever want to talk, let me know. Or maybe I need to fly out there and make you some baked ziti? smile Anyway, let me know if there is anything I can do for ya. Take care!
