The Compulsive Ramblings Of A Philotherian: e-collar

I ended up not going to work today -- for undisclosed reasons. After everything had settled, LaVaughn and I decided to go to town for some last minute Easter dinner items for tomorrow. We finished off our journey to town with a MISERABLE limeade from Sonic. We get these a couple times a week, but today was the first that that we got a blue coconut and it was awful! Like I almost took it back because it tasted to awful. Since we were in a rush, we just took them and left.

Speaking of Easter dinner. my uncle made it home today, so dinner is happening tomorrow. My mom and her husband will be coming down as well. I like Bob, don't get me wrong, but things are just so awkward with him around sometimes. I believe I've talked about this before. Tomorrow should be interesting.

I've spend the rest of my day either spilling water -- I've done it twice already -- and playing the Sims. And by playing the Sims I mean building houses. That takes up 90% of my gameplay anymore. It's a good thing that's one of my favorite things to do.

Since there's not much else to say, I'm going to get back to it. We're going to have a full house tomorrow, so I'm going to enjoy the peace and quite of tonight...

Love & Peace

Zoe sat so pretty in front of the window until I got the camera out and took these:

Dinner tonight. Shrimp and flat bread:

We're getting nearly a dozen eggs every day now:

Our temperature and humidity gauge we got for future joey issues:

And by bass I mean spring. How pathetic is it that I have to resort to blog titles that make absolutely no sense? What purpose does that hold? When nothing happens during the day, like nothing BIG that jumps out, I'm left with creating a title that sums up the day. Doing that is impossible for me because every blog would be titled; Cat, Sugar Glider, Pictures... Boring. See, it's just not possible.

I'm going to completely disregard everything I just said and talk about things that happened today.

My aunts poor dog, Max, has been licking his incision NON stop for days now. He's really only hurt himself more by trying to make everything better, because now he has everything inflamed and just nasty looking. He's now sporting a brand new e-collar and it sucks! Not only for him, but us as well. It's so sad seeing him mope around with giant cone on his head. He makes things worse when he tried to pick up a toy and play... I feel so bad.

He's actually handling it quite well, considering he's a simple little creature. He doesn't constantly try to get it off or anything, he just takes it. I never took him as the submissive type.

Since the weather is getting nicer and things are starting to bloom, I've found myself outside more and more. I started by following the chickens around the yard and photographing them in their state of happy, then I made my way down to my precious ducks. All 9 of them... not 11. They're so gorgeous -- I can't wait to start hatching out some ducklings!

I was limited to only 130 pictures today, which really hit me hard. Out of nowhere my memory card adapter decided to break. I'm not sure how, but the switch that locks the memory card decided to break of... in the LOCKED position! I'm screwed until a new ones arrives. Speaking of, I need to order one. Thankfully I have my old 1 GB memory card read. It's close to 8 years old and still as sturdy as it was the day I got it. Did I mention that it's a cheaper brand as well? As opposed to the Toshiba one... that broke!

I believe that's all I have to say today. I have to work tomorrow, so I need to go savor what's left of my day. Until next time...

Love & Peace
