Fog saw some really interesting wildlife today!
On the way home from college, he scared up two red tailed hawks that were hunting in the weeds on the side of the road, and then, just ten minutes ago, an opossum! It too was on the side of the road and I stopped the car to look at it. It looked right at me with this sort of lazy annoyance, like "What the ******** are you looking at?" and just meandered back into the woods, not caring that my car was a foot away from it. I was like "Wow.......THAT WAS SO ******** CUTE!!!!"

Hello everyone. I am in one of the best moods I've been in for a long while right now. I am so excited and happy and glad and omg...I dont' know what else.
Anyway, the reason is, for my Audio/Video Editing class I was told to pick a topic to use for a "information video" I am to film. Well, after what seemed like forever of thinking, I finally came up with teh idea of dog-training. The teacher said he liked that idea and gave me some tips on how to find someone I could use as talent for the video. So I searched up dog-trainers in the pittsburgh area and the first one I found looked really good and I emailed her and she said she'd do it and even gave me the names of two of her dogs we could use in the filming and is letting me decide which one to do (a pitt bull and a pug. I emailed her back saying as much as I love pugs and have one back home in ohio, the pitt bull would probably be better for filming.)
So now I"m excited for many reasons. 1) I got over my shyness and talked to someoen in a professional field, instead of running away scared like my old self would. 2) I got a project that's good fo rmy class, which I'm sure no one else has thought of. 3) I can tell my teacher the good news tomorrow, he told me not to wait when finding someone and to call people this weekend, so I was hoping to get good respond back so I could give him the good news. and 4) I get to watch and learn about something that does interest me, and get to see doggies and maybe even play with them some, which will be awsome since I miss being around animals since I had to leave my pets back home in ohio.
Anyway, that's all for now. Ciao *skips off humming*

Man, I feel like a schmuck. Boned it big-time.
I've been taking medication for Attention Deficit Disorder for over 3 years now. I'm usually covered under my mom's insurance 'cause I'm a full-time college student, but there was an issue (which is another story in itself) and, as far as I know, I'm currently not covered.
So, of course, I run out of medication.
Yesterday.
Way to pay attention. xp
And I'm so wigged out by just the thought of talking to strangers (I seriously think I have some kind of social phobia) that I've yet to find any kind of healthcare provider here in Pittsburgh; all my doctors (general practice, vision, dental) are over 4 hours away.
So I call my mom (who lives in Texas) so we can get this sorted out-- and it turns out she's getting ready to board a flight to Oakland, CA for a week for a business trip.
She has me call my stepdad and have him email me a scan of their insurance card (which he does) so I can find out which doctors around here are covered under our plan and all that jazz. I'm still trying to figure out if she actually needs documentation from my school for her insurance company (which the Registrar's office was supposed to have mailed her Thursday, before she left stressed ), and she says that's not a problem; I hope she's right.
I'm still really nervous about trying to find a doctor; it's kind of silly, really, but I have serious issues with trying to figure things out all on my own. If I don't have an explicit game plan, I tend to freak.
My boyfriend's really supportive and helps when and where he can, but I know there are things I've just got to do for myself.
The thing that also makes me feel kinda bad is. . . I'm not sure I want to keep taking my medication. I literally can't function without it, but I've noticed I have almost no desire to draw anymore; I used to doodle things all the time, but now I just can't be arsed, which greatly troubles me and makes me wonder if it's the medication that's to blame. . .
I just wish this headache would go away. xp
Good thing Planned Parenthood doesn't require insurance to get birth control, or I'd be "propah ******** befo' ze Germans get heah" (one meelion points if you get that reference). whee

Grah >>; You know what makes me mad? When you have money and you keep it in a safe place, and you find that someone stole some of it >_<; I had 120 dollars hidden in my room and when I go to get 20, I find only 100, so I freak out and look everywhere and its not around, so someone in my family took it and no one is telling me =/

Yay...I have two new clients to my house-sitting/pet-sitting semi-business.
And I'm also happy that I have a project dog for February rather than having to wait for April. My project dog is also a German Shepherd, which I'm happy about...plus she being the house mate to the current shepherd in training, Shadowed Hearts...
But yeah..I'm happy

And I'm not always sure just how much is missing because of my poor memory unless I make a mental note to keep track. He takes everything in my wallet when he takes anything. Not a nice surprise when I open my wallet to pay for something, expecting $15 to be in there, and find out there's nothing. -_-;

Shoki has been feeling very lonely lately. And it's becoming really hard to motivate myself to get up and go to class or do any homework. It's just a feeling of....bleh. *sigh*

Ok, to start off, I am just so glad you are ok Doomie. Would so right more on that, but way to exhausted right now.
I'm tired, and partially stressing right now. For the last two months I have been trying like crazy to get a mantis. Might end up getting one now, from a guy down here who just ordered some more along with a friend. Sadly, what I will be getting is a ghost mantis. Always wanted one, but they like even warmer tempetatures than my usual. Well just got a hummidity, and thermomater checker to see just how off my room temp is. And it is horrible, it is 70 degrees in here and that is about 10-15 degrees off what I need. The humidity isn't that great either, but mistings can fix that without to much trouble. Just really stressing cause the last thing I want to do is get a mantis and kill it off. T__T

(Insert generic positive comment here)
Just too tired and stretched too thin to be all that uplifting for all the problems people seem to be having as of late. Not all at once like this.
But, hey, I am still here if anyone wants to chat one on one.

*heavy sigh* I just had a fight with my mate....we haven't fought in so long. But it seems lately that he's been doubting my sexuality (wtf?). He seems to think I'm bisexual...and quite honestly, I don't know that I'm not. But he want's a monogomous (sp?) relationship, and I'm fine with that, but if I'm going to be spending my life with him and only him (and that goes for the sex too) then what does it matter what my sexual orientation is. Even if I'm bi, I'm with him, so I guess that means I'm straight....But any bi fantasy's I may or may not have are private and my business...but he seems to think it's his too.
So after much bickering, I ended up just hanging up on him and turning my phone off. But that left me with so much doubt...in myself. Am I straight or bi? Does it really matter? If the relationship is as serious as it's supposed to be, does that mean I have to share that with him? Should I?
Affy's been talking to me about this..but I guess other opinions might help me out.... sweatdrop

He wants to know if he has to watch out for both genders or just males that may want to steal you away. It really doesn't matter if you're bi or not, you're right; you're with him and no one else. As for sharing any fantasies you may or may not have, that's entirely up to you. My mate and I share fantasies sometimes, for ideas and to get an idea of what the other likes. Do I share all of them? No, but not because we're not close enough. Some things are just better left unsaid...My mate is a bit...insecure sometimes. sweatdrop

GLEE! I got my first pair of leopard geckos today! They're adults and in okay condition. They might have internal mites and their habitat before hand wasn't the greatest. But, I'll be taking care of them now~! <333 They belonged to NG's friend at Petco, Sal, but he gave them to me for free [setup and everything included] since he couldn't afford to take care of them anymore [he's got a saltwater aquarium with live rock and everything, plus a kid and a snake I believe]. Supposedly, it's a male/female combo but we're starting to think it's female/female.
The supposed male is mean! He does, however, arch up when you pet his back. He bit NG right away, and he looks mean too. Face and all. His mouth is always a bit open because he has a slight overbite and his teeth are huge! His name.. Wait for it... is Wasp, since he's such a p***k.
The female is the sweety. She's the soft one of the two and just chills out with you. Her body is shaped a bit odd, so she looks pregnant though she isn't. She's much more golden than Wasp, so.. Her name is Honey.
We're picking up the female ballpythons on Wednesday, and my female will be named Nadine. I can't wait to have her home.
Pythia's finally almost done sheddin, and only retained one cap so far. She still isn't eating, but that's more than likely because of shed. She seems healthy, other than that, and adventurous! @@; I forgot to put her cageclips on, apparently, and she got out while we were gone. She was under the bed. v.v;; She's okay though and is chillin in her cage now.
We might get blizzard leopard geckos.. And I'm thinking about more adults to complete my harem, but that means a bigger cage. ~Sigh~

Boy, I'm really going to enjoy this.
I finished my math homework (Thank God it was easy), and after my class I have to go to the doctors to get checked for a hernia.
What should I put down for an ailment? I don't want to put hernia, as it's far too obvious....plus, my sister is the nurse at the clinic, so if she does the pre-checkup diagnostic thing, she'll be asking all sorts of embarrasing questions. =_="
Maybe hernia would be better.....better than "groin pain" I suppose....which would be twice as embarrasing.
