Finally saw the damn fawns today. I didn't get too close to them, but I saw them. I also picked up a road kill doe for my boss.
See, we have these vaginal transmitters we will be putting in does so we know where they are when they drop fawns, then we can collar the fawns. Well...he doesn't really know how to "install" them, so...

Ok, turns out I did get presents from my aunt. She just shipped them to my other aunt instead of my house.
Haha.

One thing is kind of aggravating though. Christine drew my cousin's fiance and he happened to draw her name.
They sent each other lists...
Well, she dropped $60 on everything on his list.
He bought one item on her list...$15.

I know...

Every year my dad's side of the family draws names for Christmas presents since the family is large (and growing). This year my aunt in NC got me...so I sent her a list.
Nothing has been shipped to me...so I am starting to wonder if I will have anything to unwrap tomorrow at the family Christmas party. (Doing it a day early because many of...

Went out and tracked fawns again. Still no visual. They apparently don't want me to see them. Haha.
We took compass points and triangulated where they were.
I'm hoping I will actually SEE them soon.

The girl training me is a ninja though. I hung back a bit and let her go ahead in case I was spooking the deer. (They are used to her)....

It's amazing how much one FUCKING dog can disrupt an entire life...

My neighbor has this dog...and rather than make one of his two kids take the dog outside to shit, he just sticks it on a lead and leaves it outside for hours at a time. That's fine and dandy...except when you do it at 6am and the fucking dog BARKS at every...fucking...thing it...

I checked out the van today at work and decided I'll just stick with the Expedition. The van doesn't have cruise control and had too much space so my coolers would slide around like crazy. I've gotten used to the Expedition.

So apparently once a week now I will be tracking rehabilitated fawns with collars. I am learning how to do it tomorrow. They are...

So the DEP swapped out my station wagon for a Ford Expedition XLT...and all I have to say is FUCK THAT.
That vehicle does not need to exist. It is MASSIVE. It gets like 12 mpg...and it's just a massive vehicle. I just talked to my boss about swapping it out for the van at the office because damn...
I don't feel comfortable driving something...

Went to the clinic today because I still feel like shit.
The doctor didn't argue that I needed to be treated for Lyme since I had flu like symptoms, and work around ticks...but she did want to make sure the nausea wasn't me losing blood from my stomach due to aspirin and ibuprofen...
and there is only one way to check that...

That's right...I had...

Thanks dad...for calling me and telling me how much of a waste of time and money my job is for the state of CT because the health of the deer population "doesn't matter."

Not sure why I still talk to him...

-Me

-Added-
One good thing is he basically said he wasn't coming when Christine and I get married. My cousin is getting married and...
