Why do weekends never seem as relaxing as they should? Oh, that's right. Because next weekend I'm going back to Wisco, which means I have to get everything (except laundry, score!) done now!

Ganked from notashamed

You know how sometimes people on your friend's list (and/or Google Reader) post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when are they working THERE? Since when are they dating HIM/HER? since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you *should* already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.

Please copy mine below, erase my answers putting yours in their place then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration! One-Word-Answers seldom help anyone out :)

( You think you know...Collapse )

Blech. I am sick. :( I feel like I have mucus spikes in the back of my throat, which makes my throat feel weird and my stomach feel angry. Help? I really don't wanna be sick, yo.

In other news, I spent my morning on Yahoo! Answers... and there are some really dumb people on the intarwebs, y'all. I go on there from time to time to ask for advice on fish-care¹, and I return it in kind by telling everyone all I know about training dogs or any other tricks and turns I learned from being a veterinary assistant.

But people ask the stupidest questions. For example:

1. I was walking my dog when a guy in a car rolled down his windown and yelled "Stupid b*tch." What should I do?
   
2. I want a dog that costs $600.00 but my parents said no 'cause we don't have the money?
   
3. My hamster?
   
4. What do they have?
   
5. Why dog bites and ***** don't bite explain with good suggestions?
   
6. If my dog has ears does a slug have ears i think all animals have them?

You get the picture. It's almost hopeless, but I think this could be taken advantage of. If, say, you ask three incontrovertably stupid quesions in a row, we get to kill you. Clean out the gene pool. What do you think?

¹ I noticed last night that Theo has white ... I guess I'd call it fuzz... growing on the very tips of his bottom fin. I've been treating his water for Ich ever since I brought him back from the pet store (which, in my opinion, you should always do unless you're buying from a really good breeder), but I'm worried it could be fungus. I was told, however, it could also just be Theo's fins growing and he doesn't seem to be in any form of distress. Anyway, I'm going to change his water today... give him a closer, cleaner, inspection and probably add some anti-fungal meds to his agua. Any betta owners have any experience with this one?

Okay, wtf. Faith and I just got back from the Eastar Buffet a little while ago. It was alright - not spectacular. We get fortune cookies and mine says:

Special touches have been planned with you in mind.

That's dirty. And kind of creepy. It even has my lucky number right. The hell? Whoroscope has been pretty suggestive too. Um. Bzuh? Apparently when December rolls around, I (and every other Aries on the planet) become a sexpot. Who knew?

Well, moving right along... I got a new fish today! His name is Theo, and he is very young. He's very handsome, and he even has some of the same colors as Bartleby. He is by no means replacing Bartleby, but he's filling the fish-sized gap in my heart.



Welcome, Theo!
[No jumping.]

And now I go back to lusting after Diego Luna. Wut? Don't look at me like that.
