Third visit to the vet for Jinx in four weeks. Not good. Down to 3 kilos and won't eat without severe coaxing. At least he likes the cooked fish well enough, even if we think he can't smell it anymore. Kidney much enlarged and fused to spine, likely carcinogenic. Can't be dealt with. At least he's not in pain, just calmer. If it continues like this, he won't even make August. Next evaluation in two weeks. But we prefer knowing this instead of not knowing at all. Still have at least those two weeks.

Oh Earn.
 *hugs*Let's hope he'll at least stay without pain. Sis, hugs for you too. *hugs* Count to ten. If that doesn't work there are always 1st person shootergames...

I'm sorry Earniel
.I am so friggin' frustrated with my voice right now. I can sing up to an A#4, and if I really pull it I know I can hit the Tenor's high C. So why does everything that I try to do above a D#4 sound like crap!?!?!?! I don't -feel- any tension... I watch myself in the mirror and I don't really see anything bad going on... But the instant I get to that E4 I sound like complete and utter crap. I mean the rest of my range sounds better than it ever has, which makes me happy, but I want/need those friggin' high notes. I know I have them, they just sound like crap. |

Oh, Sarah.
Might be time to do the humane thing. Poor Jinx.

You know, it's rather ironic, he was finally eating a little better. But some things can't be helped. If nine years is all he can have, at least it will have been nine nice years. And not every kitten that's starts out life by being dumped in a cardboard box by the highway, can get even that.

My eye is aching badly from staring at the computer screen so long finishing my last Final so late at night. The eye-ache is a trifle annoying, so I thought I'd mention it here.
But the Finals being done is excellent. Tomorrow I'll be close enough to conscious to generate some real emotion about it. Tonight I can't generate any emotion. Too late, too achy, too, too sleepy  . It has been quite a good day though, overall .

I feel weird. Like I'm feeling something and I don't know what that feeling is.

I am *hideously* addicted to chewing gum. Extra spearmint chewing gum. At any given hour of the waking day, you will find me chewing like a maniac. And I can't stop. Even with the owie hurtses jaw thing. Ugh.

Vent: I haven't been sleeping much this weekend (my own choice) and as I only have experiments to do in the afternoon, I thought I'd sleep in and rest. But what happens? I wake up at the same time as every morning and am completely awake. A very pathetic rant, I know.  It's a nice day, though, stupid to sleep through it..

I'm sorry to hear about Jinx, Earnie. I really hope he pulls through. *Gives Earniel a Moothug*
Why is it everyone thinks a slender woman can't handle a 50 pound photo paper magazine!? I've lifted heaver boxes full of frozen chicken pieces, but the moment I start to pic up a mag, i hear, "That's too heavy for you. Let me do it," I don't mind the help every once and a while, but constantly? I finally was able to drill into our guy's head, I wasn't going to break lifting it. But the guys from electronics can't seem to get it. And I'm really getting tired of the "wind's gonna blow you away if you walk outside right now" For Heaven's sake! I'm not 90 pounds, I'm 120. Am I'm not skin and bones! I am really getting tired of the sterotypes

*hugs for Acally*
It's okay, quick knee to the groin will fix all that. Okay, I dont know why I didnt post this earlier, but I figure I need to get it out. I was the closest I've ever come to being a victim of road-rage this weekend. Thursday actually. This idiot cuts me off, then prceeds to plug me every chance he gets, his bud flicks me off, and he tricks me into almost getting my front bumper taken off. So I finally get around him, and as I do I hang a casual bird out the window at the redneck hero, and get a blast from his horn. 1 mile down the road I stop at a red-light, still fuming, and the wonder-dummy pulls up to my right. My radio is blasting, s I cant really hear what the dude is saying, and I make it amply clear I dont care, so he steps out of his army-truck-wannabe and makes his way over to me. He tries to push me against my car and I abruptly break his nose, help him to his car, and drive away. I have never thought more certainly I was going to be shot.

Holy ****! You seem to be getting it as bad as I am these days. Nice on breaking the loser's nose though.

Acally, I know that situation (though I'm most certainly not 120 pounds, you can add a few to that
)Nauti... What kind of weirdo was that!?!?

Hey Acally- Had a similar situation at work today, but the other way around. I was lugging a huge crate of sawhoreses to an verhang, and this itty-bitty fella tries to come along and take it. I tell him, "No, man. It's really heavy."
To which he responds, "I'm your manager, now move, and let me get this done right." Last I saw him, they were taking him to the hospital, threw his itty-bitty-manager back out.

Okay so I moved back in with my parents. My room already had stuff in it, but since I moved out my family has dumped a lot of stuff there and now the boxes with all my stuff from my room are placed in it too.
I need to sort it out, because I have to live there for at least a year. And now I'm not allowed to throw stuff out because that makes a mess? Hello!? You've been dumping it all in my room, so now I'm dumping things out of my room to live in it. Deal with it, it's NOT going to stay in my room! >_<
