Being besties

I am in class...bad Bree

I am in class but I wanted to update y'all on life!

My harv man is a joy to be around and is being a perfect angel.
Except he ate my laptop cord.
But it was an accident.
He was trying to bury the rawhide behind my back on the couch and it accidentally got in his mouth so what's a dog to do?
That's what he told me when I freaked out about it.
May have mentioned it to the boyfriend every time I have talked to him since it happened. In a whiny voice. Loudly....don't know why he puts up with me.

But he and Dynia play hard and then spend most of their time together napping, sometimes together. I'll post pics of it after this post. It will be hard for all of us when we give him back :-(

Did you know that heart problems are the most common congenital defect? Oh the things you learn in class.

Had a nutrition test yesterday. That class makes me lose the will to live. It is taught so poorly and there was so much information and so much memorizing and I did SO poorly. But is OK because a lot of people did crappy and I'm not gonna fail. But it was still a sad sad day for me. But it was also my short day so I went home and took a nap with my roommate's dog and that made everything better. Also made some ham and potatoe soup in the crockpot and felt like Betty Crocker. Win.

I got invited to Sepsis/ SIRS rounds at the Dr. Who I want to do research with's house. Apparently her and the people who do research with her meet once a month and she cooks and everyone socializes and then discusses a paper on sepsis. I am a little nervous to go but I am also really excited because I was included in her mass email about it which makes me think that I will be getting into the research program this summer. I ally do wish I had a single solitary clue what I was doing with my life, but it is kind of exciting to explore all my options. And I will get so god at drawing blood which would be really nice because I have only done it a couple of times and it is a really important skill that you don't get to practice much in school. You learn medecine and how to diagnose but the practical skills are something you get during clinics or out in practice. Any chance I have to practice is great.

Tomorrow my girlfriends and I are having a potluck like we do almost every weekend and I am making chocolate lava cake in the crockpot which sounds soooo delicious. It is so fun to have people to cook for and to hang out with. I love all my v school girls. Yesterday we did tabata ( the workout where you do an exercise really intensly for 20 seconds then rest for 10 seconds and do that for 30 min) and there were 8 of us from our class there. I like that I always see someone from class at the rec. Plus I did tabata twice in one week which was a goal of mine because it kicks my booty so I used to only be able to do it once a week.

For spring break I am going to see the boy from Sat until Thurs. Then on Thurs I will be going to stay in a cabin in the Smokey mountains in Gatlinburg with my girlfriends for my friend bachelorette party. Hiking in one of the most beautiful places in earth? Hell yea! Plus for SAVMA symposium my friend and I both got spots on the trip for  the Shedd Aquarium, my other favorite place on earth. The architecture is gorgeous, it's on the lake, and there are beluga whales. Love it so much. Well worth the $30. I also got a spot in a wet lab for canine chiropractics so that should be really fun too!

OK now time for more class :-)

Poor Addie

Things that make the Addie-cat's life sad.


-Mom leaving. Distaste shown by waking up my roommate for snuggles every hour on the hour from 4am until she gets up.


-Mom returning with the frenemy dog. Distaste shown by hiding under various objects end hissing at said dog.


- Being accidentally locked out of the bedroom when she leaves to check for bugs downstairs when mom goes to the bathroom. Distaste shown with pitiful looks in the morning.


- there being 2 dogs downstairs now. Distaste not shown but implied.


She isn't really that upset, but I do feel a little bit bad for her. Not the purring happy reunion she had been anticipating :)
