Look dad, I'm being viral! (I think?)
That is amazing. Usually, I do not support wikipedia but if only they had used it! I found this also, it was on the video....
Also, I bring you: How to Dress Emo 2.0 and The Emo Kit. I have a white studded belt... but it doesn't fit anymore. Anyway, my NEW studded belt is all black... to match my soul. And my nerdy glasses are for READING. geeze.....
Just in case this ridiculousness bothers you as much as me... ;) *
*that emoticon is a disclaimer... meaning, please, do not blame me for giving you the instructions on how to slit your wrists, ever, and also, if you are a government agency, here is where I am saying "I am not responsible for that. I did not make anyone do anything!"

Wow a lot has happened since my last post.Anyway, happy Valentine's Day Blizzard!
Since I last wrote, Trotsky almost died! Michael and I almost broke up forever!
Drama, always.
Anyway, Trotsky (3 days in the vet and $700 later...) is recovering.
Things between Micael and I are better than ever.
It is snowing, a lot.
I really hope these miracle snow days are going to last forever. Or at least, until tomorrow. Because I have a test tomorrow, a test next Tuesday, and a test Thursday. So I would really appreciate getting basically a 5 day extension. I want to study a lot more for my biology exam than I have been able to.
These pictures that you see are from the Great Family Snow Walk, which we embarked upon a little earlier today. I wanted to practice using my camera, Michael wanted to continue being awesome at using his camera, and Onyx wanted to forge her own snow path.
Can I tell you that the snow is out of control? We shoveled this morning and then an hour later there were another 3 inches! But at least they've plowed the roads since the Great Excursion.
All of these pictures are mine. If you are really lucky, Michael may post HIS later.

I'm in the wrong racket.
I should be a vet.
Well, after extensive consideration and talking with my new friend Tammy (who is a receptionist at a vet's office) I decided to change vets for my dog Onyx.
I was going to my ex-roommates mom, but she is always so rude to me doesn't act like she likes Onyx. But, I got a discount!
Anyway, we've been taking the cats there over the last few months and they've been okay, but the vets are so brisk! And they don't really have a regard for what WE want as clients. My dog is my child! you can't just go, sticking medications in without my permission!
Anyway, Tammy suggested I go to her office.
Onyx has had a bladder infection for a while, and I asked the other vet about it and she wasn't very helpful. She hasn't been acting sick or anything, so I tried giving her more water and making sure she was getting outside enough. But with this cold weather, it just seemed to be getting worse.
So, we tried the new vet.
It was great! They were so friendly, and they LOVED onyx. They gave her treats and took her into the back (on a leash made out of water ski rope!!). They think she has a heart murmur, which is scary, but they gave us a lot of good tips in terms of skin care and weight loss. They assured me of the medication they were giving her (I really don't like medicating anyone for anything, but anti-biotics are okay, cause of her infecetion.) and explained everything to me, and said they were going to call me in two weeks and check up on her! Awesome! They also gave me the drug info for the medicine!
However, the vet bills!
$40.00 for the visit
$22.70 for the Urinalysis
$48.90 for the antibiotics
$30.40 for the painkillers
Healthy dog?
Priceless.
Just kidding, $142.00
But, it was worth it. Especially to get a good vet who made me feel GOOD about shelling out all that dough.
Oh, Also. I started school, and it is awesome. Okay, it's just school, but it's nice to be doing something.
I also got hired for a new job, for some inventory company. It's going to be boring slave work but at $8.50 and hour and all night shifts? can't complain!
