I have an uneasy feeling that my case worker at the employment centre is trying to shove me into a tight little pink box. I really hope she's satisfied with the third pair of work shoes that I've bought myself in the past 5 months. I have a feeling that she wants me to wear something more ladylike when that's not what I want for myself. And the work clothes that she speaks of....do I get to pick out androgynous work clothes? I hope the answer will be yes.

Oh, gosh. I'm glad your hamster is ok!!
A couple years ago I had my mouse in an exercise ball, but my dog got it open and bit the mouse. Just as I picked him up off the floor, he passed away. It was terrible.

I skipped work because of a schedule confusion and now I'm freaking out. I don't know if I should just show up tomorrow or call them or just forget about it...
I have $2000 left on my credit card and $800 in savings. I can DO IT! ;) So what if it ruins my credit or I never get to buy a car that won't crash when it snows or I never get to visit New York. I get to live in my truck coloring in pictures of kittens with off brand crayons from the dollar store! That is what I've always wanted to do with my life.

ouch. that is terrible. :(
a similar thing happened recently, i had my hamster Misha in an exercise ball, my dog got him and started shaking the ball around. i didn't notice until i heard a horrible electric sparking sound that i realized was my hamster screaming.
i took the ball away and he was having spasms, he calmed down after a while and i gave him a treat.
i'm just really glad my dog is still a puppy and not strong enough to open the ball.
but both of them are fine.

That's very scary. I don't use those balls anymore, but if you do, someone once suggested using a piece of tape to help keep the lid on. I imagine that could be somewhat helpful.

Mochi and Misha are interesting names! That mouse's name was Orpheus. Lol, I like Greek mythology. :)

Telling people things seems like a hit or miss proposition.

What is on my mind mainly right now is how Bible-thumpers can be such idiots. Earlier today there was a poll on another website asking if you plan to donate blood this summer and this...lady... said that it was against her religion to donate or receive blood from anyone except Jesus and that anyone who gets a transfusion is going to hell, (that would sound so very nice to people who are alive today *because* they got a transfusion) and she then, of course, quoted from a Bible verse. Funny thing is just last night I watched a video about all the things the Bible forbids us and says is evil (besides homosexuality) that most people do and don't think twice about it: Gossiping, cutting your hair, getting a tattoo (ironic since so many people have Jesus ans other religious images as tattoos), women speaking in church (not men, just women), women trying to stop a man from fighting another man (the verse says something about her grabbing the man's genitals and getting her hand chopped off for doing so), and again it says nothing about a guy trying to stop a fight, having sex before marriage (I don't know about men, but if a woman who has lost her virginity before marriage the Bible says something about throwing stones at her), working on a Sunday, even firefighters, surgeons, and the police apparently are going to hell for saving someone's life on a Sunday. Oh, and you also can't get into heaven if you don't have genitals for whatever reason. Say you lost them in a freak accident or some insane person cut them off? Doesn't matter, tell Satan I said hi. :twisted:

So, if heaven really does exist, it must be a very lonely place because there's hardly anyone up there. :roll:

Edited: I've quickly lost interest in WWII when I saw images of bombs going off on YouTube.

Waiting for a book I ordered online to arrive. It's already a couple of days overdue.

Don't understand people. Being part of their world is too confusing. Being alone is better.
