Life is full of shitty decisions.


If you have 6 months of a fantastic, normal, healthy life, and 6 months of a shitty, sick, incapacitated life every year, and you had the option to no longer continue your life, what would you do?

If it was your beloved pet in the same situation, then what? Do you continue their existence knowing that they're suffering now,...

There's no easy way to answer those questions, Dear One, and You may not like my answers. But here's what I can come up with:

To put it simply, "this goes with being a good daddy. It's the worst part, but it's the part that defines us as parents, I think". Someone I love told me that a few months ago...

I would go through those miserable days looking forward to the half year of good life. But then people and monsters are very distinct creatures. We're more or less aware that we're going to die, so we waste our time with careers, money and shit that will serve as proof that we spent one fraction of a second on this blue marble. Animals do not have this problem, which is why they exist but don't concern themselves with making sculptures or signing autographs, and also why the pain they feel today is not mitigated by the thought of a sunny meadow in June.

As for the job vs college... I don't think there's a figure that justifies being miserable on a daily basis, but maybe if You try to look at the job from a different angle, it wouldn't look like such a drag in advance. There's multiple advantages in it, judging by the way You phrased the question, maybe You could start from there until You find an aspect that You like, or more.

Okay, slightly more informative post, I guess.

About 6 or 7 months ago, Lilly, our rabbit was HELLA sick. I mean, not sure she was going to make it through the day sick. She had symptoms of a stroke, and later had a seizure in my arms. She was eventually diagnoised with vitamin D toxicity (don't ask me how that happened) and a blood-born parasite....

Maybe we should give the damn Hutt some chamomille tea with his food. Or some valium.

Somewhere down the street from here, someone's life is being destroyed in a blaze of flames. A fire is raging, taking down a wood and steel structure, and eating up someone's memories. It's tragic, but maybe it will be good for them. We all need a fresh start sometimes. I hope they're all okay.

I changed my major finally. I am now a criminal justice...

I don't like fire. I do like arabic, but I'm not terribly knowledgeable in it either, although I remember a little more of it than Chinese.

Anthropology degree and maybe get a job, or Criminal Justice degree and maybe get a job? Doing what with either?!

Either way, I'm required 3 semesters of a foreign language. Spanish is probably the most useful, but it seems so blah.Everyone takes spanish! No offense to my spanish speaking friends. None. Got it? Anyways, suggestions?

Hai.

So I eventually stopped crying and wrote my paper. I sort of feel better. I hopefully laid to rest some stuff in doing so.

Moving on. Literally.

Halloween was pretty rockin, for the most part. I rocked out at work in an awesome witch costume, and then I went to the haunted corn maze, then I went and rocked out as the Devil with...

It becomes extremely difficult to stay optimistic in the face of repeated defeat.

They rejected our bid and sold the house to someone else. It stung, and it sucks, but obviously, that house was not made for us then. We will find it, eventually. Just keep swimming, just keep swimming. I am a big believer that everything happens for a reason, and we will be...

The right house will come along at the right time. I believe in those sorta things too.

Cat ears. And I won't audition to be a bloodsucker. You can't make me. Ok, that's a lie, You totally can and aI would, we both know that.

But shapeshifting's more my thing.

And when You say corn maze I immediately think of that episode of Bones 'The Mummy in the Maze"

Hai. New Blog Time.

I am waiting for a call from our house guy to tell me if we can has house.

I've been in an old skool country mood lately. Lots of Dwight, Sammy, Lorrie, Kentucky Head Hunters, The Tractors. (Maybe it's not old skool to some of you, but since I was 10-13 when most of this came out, it is to me....

I am basking in the glory of Your vision. So much that I didn't recognize an apple earpiece until I took a second look and lol'd.

I've almost packed up my stuff though I'm not sure if I'm allowed to follow You to a new location or I'm bound to one single castle. Eek.

So I'm sitting in my secret corner of campus, drinking applesauce, and secretly watching the girl sitting one table over stare at me drinking applesauce. She might think I'm crazy. I'm cool with that. Honestly, a spoon is too much work, cause I gotta remember to take it out of my lunchbox and put it in the dishwasher before it and my lunchbox grows mold....

So Chicago was rad. It always is. The Harry Potter exhibit at the MoSI is awesome. The MoSI itself leaves much to be desired if you are over ten. Although the U-505 is fucking amazing. But anyways, Harry Potter.

It was fucking amazing. They had so much stuff. Wands, Fawkes, Thestrials, Robes, THE FUCKING MARAUDERS MAP! I squeed. It was really well done, except for...
