This is the corrolation of salvation and love...

I would post more frequently, but I'm totally swamped with school. Ugh. Sorry.

Stella appears to have a really infected tick bite. I remember pulling one off her at a picnic the day we found her, but I don't exactly recall where I pulled it off of her. I'm almost positive it was her neck, and the sore on her neck looks like an infected tick bite to me. I cleaned it off, and put a generous amount of neosporin on it. She was good about that. She tolerates a lot.
She's doing much better with her housetraining. I'm very sure she was a housedog at one time. She knows she's supposed to do her business outside. If I don't take her several times a day, she will go on the carpet. But that hasn't happened in almost 2 weeks now.

I'm so proud of Ember! She's in the living room with me right now. For those of you who don't know my cat, she's SUPER shy and usually doesn't come out of my room. Here lately she darts out of it anytime I open the door, and spends her day sitting on the stairs, where she can dart back up to my room if anything frightens her. But right now, she's made it down the stairs, over several baby gates, and into the front of the house, and she's playing with Echo. :)

Mom was ALMOST on Fox News this morning. We took some of the pups with us to go advertise for the humane society. Diana ('Baby Di') and Luna are 'stars' now :) Barb ended up being on instead of mom. But that was okay. Its about the animals, not the people.

My tongue is really bothering me. It gets irritated easily, and the stud seems to slip around too much. Its stretched a bit, too. I'm gonna order a larger gauge stud and see if that helps. Its 14g right now. I'm ordering a 12 and a 10. I doubt I'll need the 10, but you never know.

New favorite band= MGMT. Check them out if you're into indie/psychedelic/just wierd music.

It's all that I've got.

Well. I guess I deleted my old blog? Hmm. Anyways. I'm sitting around waiting for my sheets to dry so I can go to bed. Stellaluna had her spay surgery today and she's sleeping on the dog bed across the room from me. She's so out of it... She's already a picky eater, so being groggy after her surgery, she definitely wanted nothing to do with food. I finally convinced her to eat at about 11pm, but of course she turned down the canned food I'd mixed her glucosamine supplement in. She ate up the chopped pieces of the Natural Balance roll I fed her, though. And she's drinking lots of water. So I'm not too concerned.

Echo's upstairs right now...'mrrrrrowwww'ing at no-one in particular. Just letting us know he's up there. And by us I mean me and Stella, cuz we're the only ones awake.
Been listening to a lot of Deas Vail and Heavens lately. Deas Vail makes me happy. Heavens makes for either a dreary day or a mellow day. Depends on how the day's already going.
I've GOT to get more school done. I HAVE to graduate in December. I've got too much life to live, and school's in the way. I'm a bit afraid of the future though...not sure what's out there after high school. It won't be too terribly different from how it is now, I think, since I'm already home all day :P I feel so sorry for public schoolers...once they're outta high school, it's like BAM they're out there in the world. And they find themselves with too much time on their hands.
...they should use that time to volunteer for the Humane Society!!! :D
Speaking of which. We're doing a super adoption event this weekend apparently. Hopefully we get some animals adopted out...my current foster kittens are quite feral and do not like me AT ALL. It's kinda annoying...I want to love them, but when they hiss and spit at me, it gets old. Mikey's home too, and he's mad. He wants to go back to Petco. He misses Monday. Gertie loved Monday, too. I'm glad she got adopted though...we had her a long time.
