One of our trees died, a big oak tree (I think from oak wilt) and it needs to go. The problem is that it is right by the carport and the well house and it's going to be a huge pain in the ass to remove without ****ing something up ... And it's starting to lean, I hope it holds out til OH gets back to help us remove it because if it falls were ****ed.

Got off work early, so stopped in to fastrax to get checked out so I could get cough meds for the irksome bronchitis. The doctor who examined me couldn't prescribe cough meds with codeine, which is what I had before that worked well, because his DEA number wasn't in yet since he just moved here. :rolleyes:

Also, inhalers are pricey. Good lord.

I did get cough meds (just not the one I had before) plus antibiotics and the inhaler.

I'll be downtown selling a kidney:rolleyes:

5am and I am still too stressed out to sleep. Wtf. I've taken enough melatonin to fell a rhio. Also, everything hurts right now. My neck, my hands, my back, and especially my insides and my heart.

Starting to wonder if I need anxiety meds. It's just not like me to not be able to calm down at all.

... Or maybe I'm psychic... I just asked my best friend if he feels okay, and he says he feels exactly how I do.

Fwiw if you phone somewhere and ask for a number at least have the fraking decency to have a damned pen and paper ready to take said number, you called ME, for the number it shouldn't be a big surprise when I start giving the thing.

Wow over 1200 pages of vents!

I will add to that: my shoulder (the one a horse kicked a while back ) hurts really really bad ... I have been lifting weights and every time I do that or put any strain on it al all, I have a lot of deep achey pain (that gets worse when I move it) in it along with tingling, numbness and weakness in it ... Boo :/

I'm staying home sick today.

I have an appointment at noon.

The dogs won't stop pestering me to get up and play, and I'm too tired to shut the door.

Middie keeps biting Bay when she pesters me.

Not sure which is worse.

Working at the dog park, some guy comes in with a little mixed breed dog, about 40 lbs, Akita - looking but tiny.. Gets in the first set of doors, and there's Patton, a beagle, and three goldens in the office. Starts loudly growling. The guy steps back for a second, I call the dogs away from the door, he steps inside and the beagle walks up to greet him. He starts growling LOUDLY and she yelps and jumps back (she's a drama queen) and he starts lunging and snapping and growling very aggressively. Man has enough sense to go back out the doors.

He's in the foyer, and screams "Why aren't they on leashes!?" Well, I say, this an off leash dog park, and we don't allow leashes and it creates tension for greetings - the purpose is to let them run free. "They should be on leashes" No, sorry, have you ever been here before? "No, but I work over there *points to SPCA across the street where I worked for two years* and I know dog behavior and they need to be on leashes." Actually, you need to leave. Kthankskbai.

Most arrogant guy I've met in a while.

I gave notice at my job that I'd be leaving in 2 AND A HALF MONTHS
Nice right? Give them time to deal?

....they've given me barely any hours, because I am no longer a "scheduling priority" since I'm leaving.

I am so mad and sad.. I've worked there for 2 years. I've been reliable, I worked my birthday, christmas eve, I've been there. and now this :/

It just really stinks. I have to save to move and I feel like this is really scummy.

I have a headache. My tailbone hurts. I'm tired. I have a short fuse, so everything the dogs are doing is annoying me. I want chocolate and don't have any. Life is stupid. I'm ready for it to be bedtime, but it's only 6:30.

Boo.

Had a 5 hour shift in work turn into a 9 hour one which meant I got to do horses at midnight. Got everything sorted so I just had to bring some of them in and feed the others. Went to catch them and of course everyone is crowded round the gate except the one horse I need. Finally find her and bring her up to the gate where Copey is blocking the way. Go to shoo him out of the way and of course He spooks and kicks me. Tried to dodge but it was too muddy and Amber was in the way. I'm going to have a hoove shaped bruise on my side tomorrow! Then went to put the hay in the field and all the horses rushed the wheel barrow because their food is 4 hours late. Copey tried to bite Tony who escaped by charging into me and knocking me over into the mud. Ouch! Dragged myself back up sorted them out and went to go home. Got home and realized Aura had vanished. Go back to stables because I thought I'd accidentally locked her in a stable (still limping and covered in mud) and f course as soon as I got there she appeared.


I hate all animals right now. And I start work again in 8 hours. It's an 10 hour shift. It's going to be a painful night.

I ordered a memory foam mattress topper in an attempt to breathe new life into my failing mattress. It just arrived, smells like death (which I guess will go away) and is queen sized. I have a twin bed. Crap. I guess I'll try to fold or cut it to fit

I want another tattoo!

And I want to get one tattoo reworked.

Question is, do I start with getting my current tattoo reworked or do I get one of the small additions that I want?

Can't find my phone charger, phone is dead. Decided to go to Target to get a new USB cord. SURPRISE POTHOLE. Damnit. Blew a tire. :( Nursed it in to a gas station, found out that it's hardcore popped (tried to put air in, it was coming out as fast as it was going in) and ended up getting a guy at the nearby auto parts store to put the donut on for me.
