My dog's in the vet hospital right now, he hasn't eaten for 2 days, and he apparently has an enlarged kidney, he's on antibiotics and iv fluids. Please send your well wishes and prayers to him...
I'm... just going to curl up in bed now.

7:20 pm - Huh....
|
Here's a conundrum, how does a baby deer manage to get itself into a barn, through a closed stall door, with fresh grass still in it's mouth, and then promptly die in the far corner? You know what the odd thing is? There are no drag marks, no visible wounds other than what seems like a broken neck... so.. uhm... wtf??
current mood:  confused

10:46 am - Updates... updates...First off, R.I.P. Stormy.
|
well first off.. Stormy, one of the horses at the stables, passed away on Sunday. So I attended a wake for him, it was sweet, over 20 people showed up to pay their respects to this horse. :) He was an old arab gelding, rescued from the auction block, he was rehomed, de-wormed, deloused, de-ticked, and was at the stables for 3 - 4 years. Granted I didn't know him for that long, but interacting with him, he definitely had a personality about him.
He was an awesome horse, he loved to be outside grazing, even though he had only 3 teeth because the rest had rotted out, so everytime he ate something it'd be 'squeak squeak squeak' of his gums together. He loved being groomed, and I mean, LOVED being groomed, and overall, he was a gentle soul that will be missed.
In the meantime, I am looking to transfer to Nanaimo, I just.. I don't want to live in Vancouver. I am tired of thecity bullshit, which is only going to get WORSE when the Olympics arrive, which will drive the cost of living up, and thusly increase the amount of homeless people on the street. I don't want to be a part of it. I want my place of solitude.
Vancouver Island seems to fit me, it's a slower pace, and... it just fits. There are lots of rural areas there, and I have met some wonderful friends that have been supportive and given me that little extra boost that I need.

12:29 am - Oy...

When a horse auctioneer is trying to hook you up with some cougars from Vancouver Island... man, you've sunk to a new low. :P
But hey, being around horses, that's what matters the most.

10:09 am - Update on Life
|
So... yeah. I now have 2 jobs. :) One I love, one not so much... the one I love is working at the stables, I provide water for the horses and the other is still at a certain Blue Big Box electronics store.
I feel like... I'm accomplishing my dreams one step at a time. I've been talking and networking with people involved in the horse community, involved particularly with natural horsemanship, and yanno, something about hanging around the horses just makes me feel... like I've come home.
However, lately I've also been hit with one of my horny moods. Gaaah... it sucks being horny and single, or hell, not having any 'friends with benefits' but eh, c'est la vie.
current mood:  awake

12:07 pm - You sir, are the WORST roommate I have had
|
To my soon to be ex-roommate:
So... not ONLY do you piss the neighbours off, you piss the landlord off and yelled at him. You crash the neighbour's parties with booze, you got me in trouble because you tried to give moonshine to a pizza driver, you don't clean the dishes, or even empty out the garbage, you don't really do anything in the apartment except fuck. In the what.. 4 months you've stayed, you've had 4 different partners.
Oh... yes, I KNOW you had sex in my bed when I was on vacation. The bed and the bedsheets will get cleaned, HORRIBLY. You know what? I have been very lenient on you, I have gave you time after time to redeem yourself. You've done NOTHING to warrant your stay here pleasurable. You are gone.
Threatening to slash the landlord's tires, threatening to cook horsemeat in my apartment, threatening to pour water on my laptop. You don't even have the balls to show up during the weekend. You're gone. There is also the issue of your fuck buddy. Even now i am holding back such hell I could unleash upon you... you've overstayed your welcome. You sir, are gone.
Take your shit, and GTFO.
BTW, the neighbours also are witness to what's been going on, you might want to close your fucking bedroom window next time you want to have sex.

"Remember. you only get to live your life once. you can't change it when your 80 and you need the good times so you can bore the crap out of the poor slob beside you! that'll be the person who was to scared to try anything!"
Amen, sister, amen.

1:17 am - I Miss Them..
|
6 days, curling up under a lean-to shelter, dozing with 3 horses surrounding me, nuzzling me, occasionally tasting my hair, breathing in their scent, grooming them, lavishing untold amounts of attention on them. To feel... almost like I belonged with them.
That is what becomes the motivator, to do something to make a difference for them, to do what I said I would do. Make a positive difference in their lives.

3:09 pm - Hmmm
|
So it seems that my roomie has removed me from his friend's list on Facebook. Whatever... I am not going to focus on this, I am just going to focus on enjoying my vacation and chillin' with horses while I can. I'll figure this shit when I get back.
current mood: vacation

My place is small... it seems... a LOT smaller now that there is FOUR people staying in a 2 bedroom place. >_< Or at least.. it feels like it's 4 people.
Feh.... going to swing swords and unleash some frustration on Wii Sports Resort

11:34 pm - Soundslash is now going back to the manufacturer
|
Poor girl...
It's sad to say but the phone's speakers are already dead. I found out why upon doing research, and discovered this.
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Nokia-5800-XpressMusic-Packs-a-Faulty-Speaker-105610.shtml
So about a million or so Nokia 5800s are out there with defective speakers, I managed to get one of them. Fuck.
So Dell.com will be contacted, and RMA'ed it will go. I still have all the proper paperwork to send it back. Thankfully I'll have that money re-imbursed to me.
Has this soured me from the 5800? Not really, it's still a gorgeous phone, it's just manufacturing slip-ups happen... and at least now local shops are stocking them so I can buy Canadian, and buy unlocked.

9:37 am - Gaaaag!
|
So.... I'm sitting at work, absolutely DREADING going home last night. I was a little saddened when a portable A/C unit was returned but was immediately bought 30 seconds later. Also found out the air conditioners do not go "open box" but immediately go to "return to vendor". Imagine my surprise when my co-worker tells me there's an AC unit I've been looking for that's actually on the skid of defective product? I am anxiously asking my manager if I can buy it.. even though it's essentially on it's way back to the manufacturer.
Tick tock... tick tock, closing time goes the clock.
BING! I CAN buy it!
So I get this thing home (courtesy of a cab) and lo and behold, as soon as we get it in the door I am blasted by the heat in the apartment. The temperature was a sweltering 31 celsius.. about 87F in the apartment. Me and Libby immediately begin to rip the thing out of it's boxy cocoon and I install the window brace, then adjust the settings and turn on the sucker, and get blasted with nice cold air.
It seems the previous owners were idiots and didn't know how to install it, or something, or didn't wait for the coolant and oils to drip back down, but hey, their loss, I have an AC. Granted, it's pricier than a window AC, but given the window setup right now, this makes much more sense because it fits in the kitchen and keeps the place cool.
I now bequeath it..... Steven Coldair.
current mood: cool

Lzst night it was a basting hot 29 in the apartment. I was not pleased, Lbby too was so hot he was using a bag of frozen peas to keep cool. Today i am heading to work early so i can take advantage of their a/c. I'm also going to buy a portable a/c unit... It is too hot and the heat wave is miserable.
This was updated via cell cuz too ho to have laptop running.

1:09 am - Decisions....
|
|
So.... I am writting this on my Nokia 5800 phone and i am in love. Gooorgeous phone. Plus on wi fi too. No shitty Rogers data plans for me! But... I am considering moving to Vancouver island. Maybe transfer to the Nanaimo Best Buy. The island... it feels like home. It feels like nothing else.. I want to be there, especially if it is sparsely populated. I like not dealing with a lot of people at once.
