I haven't been sleeping well lately. I fall asleep fine but I start repeatedly waking up around six. I realize this isn't actually that early, but when you're a dog walker who doesn't have to get up 'til just around nine, it is. It's the kind of waking up I usually do if I'm worried I've forgotten to set the alarm, which led me to believe it was ( Read more... )

Actually, my sneakers weren't made for walking which is really not helpful when one decides to become a dog walker. I've been walking for about two weeks and everything from my feet to my shoulders hurt. I'm in better shape than I thought I was but it's still taking a toll on me. It's mainly the stairs; the walking itself is fine but when I walk ( Read more... )

How can you label a child undesirable? What a horrible thing to say. HIV positive he was undesirable and when the only people willing to take him in were a gay couple that was fine with the courts. Suddenly at age 15 he is eligible to be ripped from the only family he's ever known because gay parents aren't good enough once a child becomes " ( Read more... )

This weekend was fun. It's not often we really do much on the weekend so it was a nice change of pace to be out and about, although the weekend flew by as always ( Read more... )

I wonder if he even thinks about me. I'm sure he does; from time to time, when people start talking about people they dated as teenagers, when he wants to tell a story about some bitch who broke his heart, maybe even when he hears a certain song, but I'm sure the times are few and far between ( Read more... )

My maternal instincts are going out of control.

Today we took Dash to the vet and he cried so badly when they took his blood that I cried too.

My womb and my brain never seem to agree on things...

I also hate how the things in life I tend to look forward to or feel optimistic about usually end up the worst. This job at the MSPCA has been a giant headache. The actual data entry wasn't a big deal and it made the time go by quickly but the people there are so fucking rude and just plain weird. It's enough to make me want to join the ( Read more... )

I want my uterus ripped out of me. I can't have another period, I swear I won't survive. What I really need to do is go to the doctor and get back on the pill and get some nice prescription painkillers and be done with all this. Being bi-polar is bad enough, who the hell needs hormones to complicate things. I'm all over the place today and all ( Read more... )

I miss having friends ( Read more... )

The past few days have been rather eventful, especially since life here is usually rather quiet. Kailey arrived Thursday a bit later than planned, followed by Mal and Kat, followed the next day by my brother and Anna. Amidst all this Lauren and I have been working, Kat, Anna and Ryan have since left. On top of that I managed to finish most of my ( Read more... )
