perkele

Pre-Tuesday is officially here, and it decided to bring some rain in for the occasion!!!

So awesome....

My hand is healing up quite nicely, although I still can't do anything to strenuous. Which really sucks. I tried to workout this morning--ouch. I felt like I got electrocuted. So no more of that for awhile...unless I can just do planks all day long.

So I decided...

Did you take a moment, between brushing your teeth and cussing at the asshole that just cut you off, to say goodbye?

I wish I had.

Like fog on the ground, I hang around till the sun burns me out.

There is a beauty that we all miss, of those warm mornings we stroll through absentmindedly. The mountains blown to valleys, a transformation missed just outside our computer screens. I trapped a butterfly in the greenhouse, but I let her go today. Fluttering away to the music kept in my veins......

I hate the emergency room. No matter what city you're in, if you happen to visit the ER you will be confronted with the smell of vomit. And then, no matter what you are there for, you will get sick.

I got the sniffles...hell to the yeah....

Has anybody seen my OJ?

Sliced up my hand pretty good last night. Now I can't feel the any part of my thumb. I'm wondering how tattooing will be...

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
I feel strong enough to carry it all.
I was once young and so unsure
Stuttering and Shaking with every step
How the years have steadied my gait

I feel the gaze of the crowd at my back
I don't turn to show them my face
I was once infantile and uncertain
Second guessing at...

And it's not like we'll be alone...Ophie will be cranky...she's cranky right now. And we'll have to fight Isabella just to eat her food....seriously...you are not a bird, you are a little girl.

I need a...

The drive was long. I felt the eighteen hours in my right ass cheek--burning, aching, intensifying every minute.

The Travel Plaza smelled like bleach, or chlorine, but mostly of sticky hands and sweaty arm pits. Tattoos and teenie boppers, the life guards throwing smiles like vomit in a bucket. My stomach was upset but I was too hungry to say "no" to the cheeseburger. I...

So So Busy...

One of our two thousand gallon tanks sprang a leak...oh what a nightmare. I've been netting, weighing, measuring fish all morning. And I stink...

Anyone out there know how to identify a leak from the interior of a structure?

I'm considering Grad. School in two possible locations: Culebra, Puerto Rico or Stirling, Scotland. Culebra specializes in Deep Sea Cage Culture and Stirling focuses more on Sustainable Aquaculture. So the real question is: Tropical or Temperate?
