Talks to the Animals

yeah i guess so... how about some specifics?

im good....
what kind of....stuff?

No need to apologize at all!! haha

I'm actually done school for the year (finished at the end of April) and was back for my first ride last night. My charming beastie dumped me in the mud haha. But yes, I was counting down the hours for two days before . So you have three now all at your own place? AH you're so lucky. I technically don't own either of my two so I don't get to do what I want with them past a certain point. I can imagine an off-the-track TB would be quite a handful if you're out of practice. They're a handful all the time (I helped a friend retrain hers into a riding horse two years ago and I've ridden a couple at my barn)!

Yeah, its hard to know what to do when it comes to that "real job" stuff. Especially when it comes to loving the job vs. getting paid :sickL. I just finished my second year doing a BSc in Animal Biology and I'm planning on going to vet school after. The system is a bit different here in Canada than it is in Australia though.

I'm off to bed for the night though! I look forward to talking to you more!! Night (Not for you, but oh well)

I just realized I didn't answer your last post! I'm sorry!

I know how you feel about leaving the job. I've been working in a small animal vet clinic for 6 years now, and as much as I want and need to move on and get some clinical experience with horses, it's hard to leave when you get to know the patients, and I don't see them every day like you do! Do you plan on staying with that job? Or will it eventually lead to something else?

Yes, it feels strange when I don't have a cat under my feet. And there's something about strays as well- it's almost like they're grateful to you. My cats have always been strays. And I'm especially thankful that I ended up with that kitten. He's been epileptic since he was three, as well as being arthritic, and just generally has the most pathetic immune system possible. I can't imagine what would have happened to him if no one had found him.

Yes, I must say that I'm extremely lucky to have been able to ride all these years. I live for it! Now I only get to ride during the summer and over the winter holidays since I don't have time when I'm in school. I think I saw a photo of you with a horse- do you ride as well?

Fair enough.
But you still didnt answer my question...

Care to share in a PM? If not, dont worry about it.
And can I ask why I am happy paint?

Talking to me is like happy paint. That is officially my new pick up line.
I actually understand what you mean. No matter what good things happen, there is still that demon or old memory hanging over you right?

Not at all. I was just reading your blog and said "OH!" She's not in a slump anymore. But apparently I'm wrong again.
BE HAPPY!!!!!!!! LIFE IS GOOD!!!!

Scratch that, your no longer in a slump. See? I read your blog too.

Drool from afar! So far away you need binoculars. ; )

I've got too many shackles now to count, but they're self imposed- my job, my dog, my boyfriend... and etc. I'm sure you understand. Obviously. I posted my resume on www.yardandgroom.com and got a reply from the woman I ended up working for almost immediately. I would have stayed permanently, but I couldn't renew my visa because I wasn't done school, =(. I did go by myself. Just for kicks. I needed to make a big, bold move, and I did.

My retarded things... no matter how long I've known someone, I can't call them on the phone or let myself into their house. I'll sit outside for HOURS contemplating what to do.
I`m afraid of windchimes . And just, various other retarded, insecure things.

You`re great to chat to- normally I`m hesitant and awkward chatting to people, even on the `net, but... whatever.

It`s strange to think it`s what, about noon, where you are.
