Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Warm weather! Woot! I got invited to go be a sword jock today and go swing some stick, so to speak, but it was too short of notice for my taste, plus there's cleaning to be done... always cleaning to be done... at least it gives me something to do... I was pondering hitting Lowes to pick up some lawn chairs for out back... but it seems like the upcoming weather is going to be a little wet... and they're even calling for a ''wintry mixture'' on Tuesday and I think Friday.. something like that... snow, when it's going to be like 40 degrees, c'mon. I'm officially tired of winter, only because it was a shitty one for me... I didn't get to go out and enjoy it at all... went boarding three times... that was it..... got new boots and such... got to use them once... so I'm a little bitter and tired of winter now.
Went out the other day... I'm on a quest for matching lingerie, but having no luck... so a shopping trip to the mall about an hour away seems to be in order. Woo! There's just so much I want to do/buy... and not enough means.
This summer, I would like two pocket rockets... so that I may host ''Pocket Bike Jousting''!!! It'd be sweeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My neighbor woke me up early this morning... well, only early because I was considering ''bartending'' tonight... but I really don't want to go, so I'm thinking of using the excuse that I got woke up too early... lol. Seriously, it's beautiful out. I want to go for a walk, and just relax and enjoy it.
I learned how to do ''poodle feet'' yesterday! Yay! I seem to have done pretty well. The past few days I've started to get more experience with shaving dogs, all over, not just hygiene clips. So, that's cool... I was having a MAJOR off day on Thursday... I was so off, I would say it was devastatingly ''off''. For example, a Golden Retriever came in for a shave down... cool. AFTER having cleaned up the pads and such, I had to stop and help take some other dogs to the front desk, so, I take him off the table, put him in the stainless, go take up the other dogs, come back, put him back on the table, turn on the clipper vac, and try to shave him... but I don't really see a change.... for at least five minutes, I run the clippers over this dog (mind you, I took off most of the length BEFORE his bath, this was just the second cut to even him out), THE CLIPPERS WEREN'T ON. Yeah, I just stopped, and hung my head. It was THAT bad of an ''off'' day. It turned out pretty well, hour wise, but still. The owner of the resort wants us done by 3PM, since we start at 7AM. The earliest we've gotten out in the past two weeks was 5:15. I'm glad for the hours, it's just tiring... yesterday we would have been done by 2, but we had the owner's standard poodle and irish wolfhound to do... good to work on, just time consuming.... so 5:30 it was. Shrug. We opened Thursdays back up, yay!!! So, I won't have to stress too much about that, now. Phew!
It's been decided that I am going to do a photoset, for sure... it was supposed to be this past Wednesday... but I wasn't prepared, so within the next two weeks. Here's hoping. Fingers crossed. And we'll hope it turns out as well as I have it pictured in my head.
I have not been doing any drawing or painting lately... bummer, I'm trying to focus on my classes for work... focusing being the hardest part about it. My thoughts are reeling and going every which way constantly... especially when I TRY to get something accomplished. Ug. Fuck it, I'll be inside all week because of the rain and junk, maybe I'll get them done then.

I have a few ideas, just depends on what happens and timing, to see which we do first. The one is quite simple,but it's cute and playful. So, we'll see.

Poodles are evil anyway. My mother's poodle gets more presents than the rest of us kids combined. Make their little paws suffer!
