Indispensible

I can't say I have much to say today. I had to euthanize two feral cats at work. I always wonder; what if we'd found them earlier? Would they still have been feral? What was the turning point? The worst thing was, I missed the heart on one of the cats and had to inject it again or watch it die much much more slowly. If I'd had the choice, I'd rather I'd never missed and instead it died immediately, the first time. This is starting to seem like a veiled metaphor, so I think I'll stop.
Life is always harder when death is on my mind.





Just seems like everything is ending, lately, everywhere I look.

Maybe it will be better in the summer...

A New Dawn: A Re-iteration

I often find, in my trials and tribulations as a member of Studentiae universitii that I need an outlet for all the crazy chaotic cogitations that have no place in either academic society or... society-society. I get the feeling that this blog will fit its' title nicely; sometimes my posts will make sense, and most of the time you'll be stuck wondering where the heck that came from. I'll be witty when able, and I might even attach a drawing for you, isn't that sweet of me? Because these posts will be more stream-of-conciousness than streamlined, I can't guarantee any sort of within-post continuity.
I've also found that my life is hella boring, and with luck only a tiny piece of my real life will invade the fantasy world I'd much prefer living in, where I don't have to scrape up the money for next month's rent and can instead live the dream of being a paleontologist Mondays, jazz saxophonist Tuesdays, author/artist/travel journalist Wednesdays, biological anthropologist Thursdays, veterinarian Fridays, make those fake foods for restaurant ads Saturdays, and I just might take Sundays off. (Schedule up to negotiations.)
I really miss the days when I could roll around in the grass chasing bumblebees, climb trees, and commit rampant horseplay with my friends without getting strange looks from stranger people. (Stranger Danger!)
If you were wondering, I'm a female Biomedical Science major with an emphasis on veterinary medicine, and an Anthropology minor, and that really sounds way more impressive than it has any right to.

If I were a dinosaur, I'd be a Troodont of some sort, most likely a Saurornithoides.


I never grew out of the dinosaur phase...
