TRYING NOT TO BE TOO UNHAPPY ABOUT IT, OR...DAY 271

My adoption application has been approved. And Pet Pantry is apparently not closing.
PIGSTRAVAGANZA!

The date for the Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue annual pignic has been set!

Date: Sunday, October 5, 2008

Time of the Event: 12:00 pm until 4:00 pm

Location: Reisterstown Regional Park Pavilion 401 Mitchell Drive, Reisterstown

http://www.baltimorecountymd.gov/Agencies/recreation/countyparks/regionalparks/reisterstown.html

This is a fun-filled day for all--including your piggies. For those of you newbies out there, our Fall PIGSTRAVAGANZA! Pignic is held under a pavilion, and next to a grassy area. There is plenty of room for piggie playpens. And, no need to worry about the grass, as it's not treated. Those of you who have piggies sensitive to clover, though, may want to be careful where you place your pen or bring a "pignic blanket" to place under your pen.

This event will include: - A Bake Sale with yummy goodies, and maybe even cookies for your piggies! - Our MGPR t-shirt will be availabe for purchase, for both members and non-members. - Various educational materials such as books and health journals will be available for purchase. - Supplies such as Oxbow products, and Carefresh bedding will be available for purchase to members and non-members at a rate cheaper than most retail stores. - We will also hold TWO raffles this year! - And of course, our quirky but fun piggy awards will be handed out to those irresistable little piggies in attendance.

WEEK 39

"I will not let thee go, except thou bless me!" (Genesis 32: 26)

Which is how I feel -- I have got too far to give up. Hoping not to bring bad luck upon myself, I would say things are looking up, and while things are not moving as fast or as dramatically as I would like, at least they are going pretty much in the right direction.

Of course, I have to be the best, the most, the biggest, the everything, and when I see my territory being encroached on I get uneasy. And it's hard to not compare myself with other people and their progress.

THE FALL OF THE YEAR

I hope it's not the autumn of my years. No beach this year, no summer romance, but that's nothing new, at least the no-romance part. I hate to say it, but deaths, illnesses and vacations at least made it semi-profitable. Now we're entering a new school year, TV season, football season and a new Jewish year. And some years fall has been a good time for new jobs...

WEEK 38


"No matter how much you care, some people are just assholes...Most everything can seem humorous...eventually"

From http://www.youmightbe.com/pages/nurse.html



A much more rewarding week financially, Thank G-d. Mom sez the Pennsylvania relatives are seeing me in a new light – they think I’m FUN. I never cared much about being fun, it was more important to be seen by them as successful, they way they do G – he farts and the family has orgasms.

Maybe to some people being fun is more important than how much money you earn, or how many people see/hear you on the radio/TV.

WEEK 37

A most unrewarding week financially, especially considering I took off almost a whole week last month. At least I got some rest, however, and next week promises to be much fuller.

This time of year seems to bring surprises – seven years ago it was September 11th, six years ago it was the sniper shootings, five years ago it was the robbery, and four years ago my father died.

Three years ago it was Hurricane Katrina, which really didn’t have much effect on me personally, other than emotionally. Two years ago I was in massage school. Last year my beloved Pippin was starting to get sick and I had to deal with the refinancing mess. Let’s hope this fall goes better.

I got some extra sleep.

A guy in Manassas drowned in a septic tank. How embarrassing. Mom told me about this crazy nun in the psyche ward who kept trying to drown herself by sticking her head in the toilet.The staff had to constantly keep pulling her out. Mom sez the nun constantly smelled like toilet.

So I guess I should be grateful none of my clients smell like toilet. And that I don't have to pull them out.

WEEK 36

Summer is unofficially over, yet I prefer to think it’s actually on the last calendar day of summer, which is about two weeks from now. And that summer really begins on Memorial Day weekend, a month before the calendar says so. Anything to stretch out a good thing.
