It's tough when it's the middle of the night and the dogs want to pee but I can hear the neighbour owl chattering away in her tree...

I know she really only goes for rodents but the girls are SMALL and it's a scary possibility at 2am. 😳

Found out tonight that someone I considered a good friend spread bullshit about me this weekend.

I'm not only pissed but I'm HURT. I don't know why she would do something like that and it feels really shitty. 😕

Photo showing my new mini stapler that has a silicon cat with a white head and pink body along the top..

Small but (cute and) mighty. This new stapler I got for work has a distinctly satisfying snap AND it's adorable at the same time.

I have long-since been tired of night crew fucking with my personal objects on my desk - don't touch MY shit.
But I lost it today when I realized that MY kit I leave in the bathroom had no pads left in it.
I don't CARE, use if you need. But fuck, at least tell me if you took the last one. 😡

Should not have felt so close but I was hesitant after the pats got a touchdown. Lol

As much as my logical brain responds to the technical side of figure skating, recognizing interesting / well done moves or things that could have been smoother...
I really react to the performances. Pairs in it together? Routines that line up well with moving music? I'm sniffling my way through. 🙄

Thank you!
I have many friends who will help me learn - that's what led me to getting my license in the first place (safety for being around their guns).
It's the initial purchase that has me hesitant. A safety course doesn't teach how to BUY. lol

My momma just about made me cry...
Told her I was thinking about buying a .22 to actually learn how to shoot and she said Nana would be so proud of me.
My grandparents ran the local gun range while I was growing up and I never got into it... Like to think she IS proud even years later.... 💜

*multiple* shoppers drug mart stores in this town with the product I want IN STOCK and their stupid website says that "order online for pickup in store" is not available?

What kind of horseshit is that? Don't have that as an option on your website if it's not actually a thing.

Okay let's clarify that by saying I shouldn't get reminders for someone *not in my household / in a relationship with*.

That's different, obviously. Before that gets raised by a rando.

Y'know, I really don't mind helping people when I know how to do things more comfortably than they do.
But I still wonder how you get to 40 yrs old without knowing how to book certain appointments.
Or at least how to figure it out yourself.
I shouldn't get car appt reminders for someone else's car.

Yep, exactly.

People would actually care about you and enrich your life if you gave two shits about anyone other than yourself.

It doesn't take money to do that - and the fact that he HAS it and still doesn't? Of course there's no goodwill extended his way.

HIS kind of money legit could buy happiness.

If what makes you happy is being a good person and the results that come from that.

Unfortunately for him.... 🙄

I think it says a lot about the (lack of) stability in a party when they can't even agree on a mere handful of candidates who should be running for leadership.

If everyone ends up running they clearly have no cohesiveness.

Lol right??

There's something about having a non-sexual friend whom you can share the delight of your new butt-plug that just makes life that much better.

Me: but really, look how pretty it is!! I'm thinking unicorn?

Him: oh hell yes! At first I was thinking dragon but no, unicorn is better.

😂

I loved those books and wanted to murder the people who did the movie.

Vet called to go over Link's most recent bloodwork. Says his thyroid levels were kinda low - is he lethargic?

I actually burst out laughing at the idea of my little Pomeranian / tasmanian devil being lethargic. 😂

He's fine. For now the report says the numbers are good barring clinical symptoms.

Oh! This morning, the hoard of starlings in the trees and the resident murder of crows just started *losing their shit*.
I had no idea what was happening - but as I followed some of the crows' movements I realized there was a hawk sitting on the chimney of a house just down the way.
Pure chaos.

They're doing brush cleanup where I like to sit and read.
I will never be in the way of forestry people so I asked if/where I needed to move and did so.
Watched a softball sized rock nearly hit my car and swiftly moved farther back. 😳

Dude: no really I'm not just looking for a one time fuck or anything.
Me: okay, wanna meet up and chat?
Dude: what did you have in mind, just chatting?
(me yes, him declining to instead go to bed)
Me (test bait): dang, might have been fun to play but oh well.
Dude: we could do that.

Hahaha NOPE. 🙃🙄

We have been struggling against every hit to the forestry industry that impacts the shipments coming through our depot and trying SO HARD to minimize overall losses.

To find out today that company-wide the target was met to get a full bonus next month? Holy shit.

The opening quarter notes in this song fight so hard against the actual 4/4 of it that it makes me physically uncomfortable.
It's brilliant but my body fights it. Lol

When you're allergic to basically the whole world, hives and whatnot are generally taken in stride.
A weird reaction on my neck with no logical explanation, though, does give me pause simply due to the proximity to my throat.
Benedryl cream and extra antihistamine on board just in case. 🙄

Right?? 😂

I'm torn between chuckling and groaning over the fact that they named her Annette...

I am having a hard time placing the "relationship" I have with the person I am currently sleeping with.
There's nothing uncomfortable I just keep wanting to clarify certain things but keep stumbling over how to bring it up - and his comforting "you can just talk to me" doesn't help. Lol 🙃

Yep same.
Mostly just positive reinforcement. Oh, you ran in IMMEDIATELY when I called you from barking at the fence? Here's a treat. Have to call you more than once? Good dog but no treat aw darn. Lol

What sucks is I definitely consider myself "alpha" for my dogs - but in the sense that I show them they can trust me to lead them correctly.
Yknow, like ACTUAL alpha/pack stuff. Not the big dick shit that got thrown in somewhere with dog training. 🙄

Heating up my key with my lighter to get through my gate...I'm done with freezing temps thank you very much.
