9:28 am	Fall Fun So Friday the 13th definitely sucked! I took Birdie to the ER for a blood feather, he is okay though. Saturday I took Carlos' sister,Patricia, to Zoo Boo. That was so much fun and I think I was having more fun than Patricia :). Sunday we went to a "church" if you can call it that. It wasn't even a religion. It is called Unitarian Universalist. Very weird and cool. The Reverend was a lady, and she didn't use any sort of bible to get her message across. I suspect that most of the members are Wiccan, Buddhist, and reformed christians. I think I want to go again because the church promotes a positive flow of energy and doesn't condemn any religion. They even refer to God as a "she" which ticked Carlos off, but whatever. Later that day we took Birdie to the park andwent to the pumpkin patch and picked out a practice pumpkin! yay, what a fun weekend. Current Mood: chipper (Comment on this)

6:59 am	My "Crappy" Job I love my new job. I get to walk these amazing dogs. One dog is Aidan, he is a great dane "puppy" and is so strong! he has a brute personality but he can be a sweetheart too. My other pooches are two dauschaunds (weiner dogs) named Velvet and Pepper. Velvet is long-haired and very sweet, and not strong at all like Aidan. And Pepper is elderly, so she keeps bumping into things because she's losing her sight. All three are so adorable and special. I get to pick up after their poop, so you can say my job is full of crap... HEE HEE! Who knew I would absolutely love my job.... did I mention I only work 1 hour a day? okay... if you count travel time, it's 2 hours.... ooooh! I tried a Zumba class at the gym last night, and I have to say I felt more of a burn there than Pilates. I think it was because the moves were not so difficult to follow. But I might try Pilates again because I heard it can stretch out your body and make you grow a bit taller... which would be awesome for me!!! Current Mood: giggly (Comment on this)

9:30 am	Fun Weekend this weekend was so much fun. Carlos and I went to watch "Fearless" which was very sad and then went to play pool, but I watched. I know I suck at pool so why play? Saturday we went to Sunken Gardens in St.Pete. It was so gorgeous, but surprisingly small (4 acres). Then we went to the Dali museum because Carlos had never been. He liked it, but there was some stupid guy on his cell and it was rining in the museum. So the guard politely requested that he put his cell on vibrate (not even to turn it off) and he almost had a shit attack "Someone's dying and i'm waiting on a call" Why would you be at an art museum if someone you cared about was "dying"? I swear he was stupid. Half of the gallery was tired of his shit that we all asked him to leave. Then we went to a strip club for the first time. It was interesting and weird at the same time, but then i got used to it. Sunday we went to the Olive Garden (I didn't get too fat)and watched the Desperate Housewives premiere. Today I have to buckle down and do the unfun stuff like laundry and burning the asiago cheese bagel i just had... mmmm... Einstein Bagels! Current Mood: chipper (Comment on this)

9:09 am	Fearless..... Today is Fearless day. Carlos has been waiting for this movie to come out for months. I'm trying to convince him to have a "Fearless" after party, which is my excuse to have sushi considering that this is an asian film. My arm is still recovering from the dumass FBS technician. Let me explain. I donated blood on tuesday and the technician who was in charge of drawing the blood out poked the needle into my vein the wrong way. So my blood wasn't flowing steadily enough because he was too busy trying to flirt with me (you know, Puerto Ricans)that it took him a while to realize he stuck the needle in wrong. so when I was done they took the needle out and afterwards another FBS tech was trying to bandage me when all of a sudden my blood was "gushing" out of my arm (not normal), so it took them a while to supress my blood flow. Thanks to him I look like a heroin addict because I have an outstanding bruise in my arm due to my blood not flowing out evenly, that and my surprising paleness.

8:36 am	The almost thin future pet sitter..... wow, so i'm 141 now! Crazy! That's officially 10 pounds and a size 8 . I feel like it was a short time ago, but in reality it took a while. I am so happy. So I quit Losertane, I am so happy. The day right after that I got a job offer for a reputable pet sitting service.... I wasn't even looking for a job. and it was funny because the owner was looking for someone to pet sit in the area i live, so i will have an interview sometime this week. I went to see the Quentin Tarantino movie "The Protector", man that was an awesome movie, but I cried, i didn't know it had an animal rights issue behind it.

10:26 am	Drama There is alot of drama going on at my job. I expressed my concerns to my "manager", if you can call her that, and she has expressed the willingness to change. Should I stick around to find out if she indeed does? Hmmmm, I really like my job, so I think I can hold out a bit. We have already had one person quit because they couldn't take her crap anymore. I'm on the verge of quitting, and my other co-worker already has another job.... which pays more than double of what she is getting now. I honestly don't need to work alot, but I do like where I work, so I will stay until the real manager comes back and see if anything actually changes.

7:30 am	Cut The Cheese.....ummm, literally So i'm trying to give up cheese. So far i'm doing pretty well. It's going to be pretty hard because that's what i've used to substitute my meals with. But I just can't conciously do it anymore. I feel too guilty. I am directly supporting the slaughter of innocent beings when I use ANYTHING from them. So I must stop. This is a battle I am willing to go through. I should at least try. I can't be dissapointed if I know I gave it my all. I am aware that this is a complete lifestyle change and that the world is espceially unfriendly to vegans. I will be as strict as possible in commiting myself to stopping the abhorrent tragedies imposed upon these helpless creatures. However, this change won't be sudden due to the complexities of this change, I will smoothly transition, any milk derived products I have purchased are either being given to my sig. other or I am reluctantly consuming until the tainted supply is depleted. I've already obtained a list of vegan foods that are easy to find. This morning I had a strawberry pop tart (VEGAN) and it was yummy after not having eaten it for several years. I also plan on attending and/or organizing more animal rights and rescue efforts On a lighter note, I got the environmental science class, so yay! P.S. I will so miss cheesecake, Godiva... and grilled cheese sandwiches Current Mood: exanimate (2 Comments |Comment on this)

6:55 am	Hooray for Shoes! I bought a new pair of shoes, actaully two. Usually this wouldn't be a big deal to most but I haven't been shoe shopping in a while....So I got two pairs of RocketDog shoes which I love cuz of the name and of course the shoe... they use no leather!!! So I am happy. One is brown & looks a bit chunky but in a good way. One is black & flat with metal studs on the sides. I took Birdie shopping yesterday. We went to the mall, DSW, Petsmart, WildOats and finally Target. he behaved well and everyone loved him. Except for this one weird lady who was scared of him for real... I was like... what's he gonna do, peck you to death? Hee Hee. Too bad I can't take him to school or work. That would be awesome. School started last week. I have 3 classes and am trying to sign up for a 4th. They are: Architectural theory 9:30-10:55 am Architectural design 3 11:00-1:05 pm Intro to Logic (which I lack) 5:30 pm-6:45 pm So I have a nice comfy gap in between which I use for study time & chillin. I'm trying to sign up for environmental science. It's not required but I really want to learn for once! Current Mood: chipper (1 Comment |Comment on this)

8:40 am	Carlos' Birthday Wow what a day! It was so much fun, but I was so stressed to begin with! Anyway. I gave him a b-day card which I made out of 3 cards.... it kicks ass! He loved all his Carlos Mencia gear and was so psyched. He had no idea he was going to Orlando until i told him to fill out his gas tank all the way and to keep on driving. I gave him little mini gifts as clues to where we were going. I.E, first stop was the train and trolley museum, so I gave him a pic of a mini train. He loved the exhibit by the way. Next I gave him a bunch of fake body parts.... we went to Ripley's! Then he got a bit hungry, so I gave him a little race car... we went to race rock. He had no idea we were staying at a hotel until I checked in. He was so happy . Two of his best friends showed up as a surprise. The next clue was a little basket ball, we went to NBA City for dinner. Then we actually had time to spare, so we went mini golfing, it was so much fun!
