    That's really awkward. Hope he doesn't ask you out on a date.

    Ugh. Why are people so weird? I'm so glad I'm not doing customer service anymore.

    I'm spent. Work is starting to feel more like the Shawshank redemption than a Career

    Just finished all of my paperwork (including ordering books) for grad school, which starts next Wednesday. All that's left is buying supplies-the fun part! Also, I'm a little nervous.
    @sufferlandrian -any chance you can take a vacation any time soon? Hang in there!

    First shift back on regular city patrol after the festival.... it's the "kitten". I am so exhausted, lol, but it's only the first of 6 straight nights.
    Heck! @sufferlandrian how did you manage to go for so long before you had coffee? I grew up in a Euro household where even us little kids had cafe latte before we trooped off to school.
    Even a large mug of dark roast isn't cutting it tonight though.

    I hate doing transfusions. Cross matching is a pain. I'll wait for a PCV to get to 15 before I do one.

    Got another Laryngeal paralysis dog in. He seems to be responding to meds. Maybe we can get a couple more months out of this old boy.

    Why do the dogs get that condition, @sufferlandrian?

    Most of the time it's genetic. Sometimes nueropathies, cancer or chronic inflammation can cause it but usually we never find a specific problem.

    The good news? Just hired another vet. The bad news? She won't be available until May. At least that gives me a date to shoot for.

    May? Yikes! But at least there is light at the end of the tunnel, even if the tunnel is long!

    In other news, I'm switching grad school programs and now will be pursuing a seminary degree. I'm still sorting out the details. Eek!
