Blog homework: A time I stood up for myself

16

It was one of the only times as a kid that I ever sought adult intervention. I was in 5th grade. I was being bullied by 4 boys at once. They had all picked on me individually or as pairs but this time they all ganged up on me. I was new to the school and stood out like crazy. I was tall, redheaded, and...

yes, I do not get why a guy would strike a women... but I do not understand why people fight other people. I mean I get angry at people but I never wish them harm

There were a lot of interesting things on the microscope today! I did a bunch of cytologies on ears, urine, and skin. Ears are kind of boring, bacteria and yeast. But urine can have crystals in addition to bacteria and cells. Crystals develop when the urine's pH is too high or too low and there are many different crystals. This is from a puppy who...

Hi all 😀 I've been a busy lady this week and weekend. After a lot of fighting I FINALLY closed on my house Friday. I'm a first time homeowner although I'm not new to having a house. It's just this time the deed is actually in my name. Next step is renovating the place. Work on Friday went smoother than anticipated with the exception of...

I have been quiet on here for a few days. I am trying to get everything finished to close on my house and I need to concentrate on that, it's a big distraction right now. I am so pissed about it. Was supposed to close Monday, didn't happen. Was changed to Thursday [tomorrow]. I find out today that there is a document that hasn't been...

Buying a house... ugh. Stressful. A couple years ago, we were supposed to close at the end of July but ended up having to wait TWO MORE WEEKS. It was bs. On top of that stress I had to deal with getting the kids enrolled into school. It started just three days after we moved in. So worth it though. I hope everything gets figured out asap so you close!!!

Allow me to vent if you will

About work, of course. We had an 'emergency' Thursday night, dog fight. Doc tells me to hang out and triage the dog, she'll go on to her appointment without me. After dawdling around they bring the dog in. His front legs are swollen and I'm checking his wounds, looking puzzled, I ask when the fight happened. 'Wednesday night' they reply. The fuck. You come in...

 @littlejohn22 Kim Deal [the lead singer] was in The Pixies before she formed The Breeders with her twin sister. I love both bands. 
littlejohn22:
I missed a lot of music when I was in my first relationship (mid 90's) she thought some music was evil so sad...@amberetta so I am playing catch-up 

Sad because there's only water in my cup
