Flee From The Russians!

Damn they were good! I wish we had a culture...
I am exhausted.
Work was hell.
Poe is doing better.
Don't know how things are with my mother.
Want to sleep.
Goodnight.

Musical Quote of the Day

"Why do I have to fly
Over every time
Up and down the line
I'll hide in the clouds above
And you that I defend
I do not love

I wake up
It's a bad dream
No one on my side
I was fighting
But I just feel too tired
To be be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind"

Well Damn

Mom took Poe to the vet today instead of Thursday. Poe has a fatty liver. It's a disease that can occur in humans too, and mostly in the obese, so it's odd that Poe has it. What happens is somehow fatty deposits end up on the liver. When Poe went to eat, he would throw up. We did notice but we thought it was just hairballs. Anyway, eventually he stopped eating because he didn't want to be sick anymore. Of course, this makes him weak and the body consumes his own fat which ends up in his liver, making it worse. So now we have to force feed him a special food which hopefully will get his liver working again. He has jaundice, too...the inside of his mouth and his ears are all yellow, although the doctor said his eyes where okay, which means he isn't too far gone. Basically, he has two weeks. If he can keep the special food down and starts eating more and we don't have to force feed him, he'll be okay. If he throws up and shows no improvement, we have to take him back to the vet and...and see what he says. I'm optomistic...several years ago there wasn't really anything anyone could do about this and the cats would die...so hopefully Poe will come round. He kept down his two syringes worth of special food so far today. Come on, Poe...
In other news, my mother is being an absolute bitch tonight. I don't have a lot of hours over the next little while...I am going to ask Amanda for more, but Mom asked if I was working the weekend. I said no. She was in the next room, and I heard her mutter to Meagan as if I can't hear her, "She only works one day a week..." to which I angrily responded "I can't help it if I didn't get that many hours, I'm still trying to change that!" and she hopped on that old horse of "Get another job then!" FUCK, IT MAKES ME SO ANGRY! Then she keeps talking about how she's going to inspect my bathroom and if it's not clean I'm moving. I pay her rent, what does she care if my bathroom is clean or not? And, I'll have you know, it is clean. I have to empty the garbage, but that's it.
Too pissed for a Musical Quote of the Day. DEAL.

Poe?

Something is not right with my kitty...he's very, very skinny and just not himself. He has NO interest in food and when I went to pet him this morning, all I could feel was spine and ribs. I think he's probably okay, but I can't help but worry, so we're taking him to the vet on Thursday.
Anyway, tomorrow I was going to be working but now I am not, so that's good/bad. Have a rehearsal with the Little Eagles of Siberia, making me a Little Sheep of Calgary. Should be fun...and by fun, I mean intimidating.

Musical Quote of the Day

"I've been walking down this track
I've got tears in my eyes
Tryin' to read a letter from my home
And if the train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home

Well this train that I rode on
It's one hundred coaches long
You can hear the whistle sound for miles
And if the train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home

If my love bids me stay
I will never go away
Nearby I will always want to be
And if the train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night
'Cause I'm nine hundred miles from my home"

Like The New Look?

I think I'm gonna do some housekeeping around here...it's dusty...already have a nice new template, but hopefully I'll figure out how to add some custom stuff. Stop laughing...

Musical Quote of the Day

"Oh you dont mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
Do you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me"

-Nelly Furtardo Title: Say It Right
This is the ONLY song of hers I like. All the other ones make my ears bleed.
OH HOLY BLOG!

I have returned! At last! After long procrastinations about switching to the new blogger, I have finally done it. All I can say is I hate having change forced upon me...and yet...I want to keep this blog going....almost everyday for five years!
Well, the past little while has been uneventful, I guess. Just the usual missing Kevin. enjoying choir, finding work both delightful and annoying. Oh well...may as well have a good time while I still can. Which reminds me, I got into Mount Royal College! I know, I know, it's not that elite or anything...they'll accept almost anyone. But at least I can finally say it's under control and I am going to be a full fledged college student as of September. Hooray post secondary education!

Musical Quote of the Day

"Who is the man I see
Where I'm supposed to be
Lost my heart
I buried it too deep
Under the iron sea

Oh crystal ball
Crystal ball
Save us all
Tell me life is beautiful"
