My career might be over before it really starts.  All of you who know me know how hard I've worked for this, and I was going to keep moving up the levels of certification, take courses taught by top equine veterinarians, and eventually become one of the few Master Equine Body Workers in the world.

is the bill itself.  I've already emailed my opinions to my representatives.  In certain parts of the country anything that provides relief to a horse needs to be done by a DVM.  So there, I can't scratch my horse's itch without my DVM because that provides relief...

Yes.  You read that title right.  Apparently in SF they've invented something called a Sushiritto, that's half sushi, half burrito.  Why?  WHY NOT?

If they had a vegetarian one, I'd be tempted to try it.  Perhaps they'll make one when they get more popular. IF they get more popular...then again this is San Francisco we're talking about here.

I was stumbling about the internetz and came upon this unsettling site.

The fact that as many as 9625 out of every 10,000 individuals may be neurotypical is frighteningly sad.  Many of you forum dwellers may even fall into the category of being neurotypical.  (but then again maybe not!)  We must fight to find a cure for being neurologically typical! 

So I'm making Pumpkin pie for thanksgiving.  I don't need help with that recipe, but the next day I'm going to another thanksgiving with my friends.  My good friend's boyfriend is gluten free as it rapes his stomach/digestive system. Because of that I want to make a gluten free pumpkin pie recipe.


Of course I know shit about gluten free.  Any ideas?  I saw almond meal at trader joes...would that be good for crust?

I stumbled upon this and thought of you

A distant star can be distinguished as a small moon or planet.

LUKE: Look at him. He's headed for that small moon.

HAN: I think I can get him before he gets there...he's almost in range.

The small moon begins to take on the appearance of a monstrous spherical battle station.

BEN: That's no moon! It's a space station.

HAN: It's too big to be a space station.

LUKE: I have a very bad feeling about this.

HAN: No, really, if there were a space station that big, don't you think we all would have heard about it?  Luke, you hear about any job openings for giant space station construction workers in, I don't know, the last two decades?

LUKE: No, not one.

BEN: It may be possible that the Empire built it using the labor of enslaved worlds.

HAN: If the Empire were imprisoning entire worlds to get slave labor for building a massive space station, surely the Rebel Alliance would have heard about this and gotten the word out.  It would generate tremendous sympathy for the rebellion.  The rebels have tons of spies, we definitely would have heard about this.

BEN: Perhaps the Emperor is taking special pains to keep this space station a secret.

HAN: But it's at Alderaan!  It has what, a billion people?

BEN: Two billion.

HAN: You can't hide a giant secret space station if you park it outside a planet with two billion people!

LUKE: But look at the sensors, there is no Alderaan, it's gone.  No witnesses to tell about it.

HAN: Bullshit!  Two billion people means what? There would probably be five or ten thousand ships coming and going. Cargo ships, passenger liners, private space craft...

BEN: The machinations of the Emperor's plans are not always easily understood.

HAN: Okay, so look, I think we can assume if there is a giant space station here, it's the reason why Alderaan is now an asteroid field, right?

BEN: Right.

LUKE: Right.

HAN: So, if you had a space station capable of destroying a planet, and you decide to make your first target an unarmed world like Alderaan, the only logical reason would be to intimidate star systems into submission.

Luke heads out of the cockpit and to the central hold.

BEN: That would appear to be the Emperor's goal.  Fear and intimidation are the chief weapons of the Galactic Empire.

HAN: So why not publicize the hell out of such a thing?  You can't scare anyone with a secret space station.  You have to scare people with a space station that's splashed on the front page of every magazine and newspaper in the galaxy.

Luke returns, carrying a thick, paperback book with pages worn from age and frequent use.

LUKE: Hey, so I took a look in this galactic almanac, and Alderaan doesn't have any moons.

HAN: Oh.  That's a space station.

I just stumbledupon this

HOW CUTE! 

SERIOUSLY WTF

The most recent entry just pisses me the hell off.  It's one of the many reasons why I will NEVER get rid of Hrosie of Doom(again), even if he finally clusterfucks himself and goes back into early retirement.  Because last time I tried to find him a "nice retirement home" where he could keep the other tb company (hell I could see them from the fucking road every day, can't get much safer than that) at this lady's HOUSE.  Oh, this other tb was also a rescue, who'd was 1)afraid to have any mouth pressure while riding because of some asshat who'd made a habit of ripping on his face, 2)would blind charge fences while jumping because of essentially the same reason as reason 1, THIS ALMOST HAPPENED TO HIM.  Oh yes HoD got yanked back out of her hands faster than you can say "FIRST RIGHT OF REFUSAL MOTHERFUCKER!".  


SERIOUSLY

it's not that hard.  And I know not all of you here share my love of animals, which is cool.


But if you don't give a shit


BUY A MOTORCYCLE, BIKE, CAR, ETC ETC

GET OUT OF ANIMALS


Do ANYTHING else, and let those of us who actually do give a shit take care of them.  



Sorry for the rant, but I was inspired after reading that this morning.  (not that I'm surprised in any way.  but it still pisses me off)

DREAM ON!!!!!!

ALLOW ME TO READ YOUR TAROT FORTUNES

When God loves you, he gives you hodgekin's disease!

Somehow I've decided that finishing up this bottle of rum is a good idea in the middle of the week.


ASK ME ANYTHING!

This is what I made for the back-to-school brunch/staff meeting today. 


First off you need to have your mother use up the zucchini you needed for the recipe, so you must buy more. 

Once back from the store you must pour yourself a big glass of wine (your choice, I went with a white zinfandel since the merlot we had was shit), and commence drinking. 

Next, pull out a big bowl, and crack 12 eggs into it. 

Whisk in some milk/cream (I used 2% since it was there).  I'd estimate 1/2-3/4cup but use your judgment. 

Next, after having another glass of wine (or more depending on how much it takes to get you feeling warm and fuzzy), sprinkle in more salt and pepper than you probably should.  I used sea salt, but that's just me. 

Follow by a hefty pinch of Herbs De Provence (probably a tablespoon, again, use judgement). 

At this point you will remember that you bought a bag (6oz) of shredded parmesan cheese.  Toss that whole thing in too...remembering to remove the packaging. 

Once that's all whisked together, rinse, and chop up your three zucchini you had to purchase because SOMEONE (names will not be mentioned) used the previous zucchini that evening. 

After they're all chopped, you may either steam them, or put in a glass microwave safe container.  Cook halfway through. 

Add these to egg mix.

Butter/pam/whatever your dish, and pour the entire contents of the bowl into the dish.

At this point the oven should have been preheated to 350F.  Bake for 40-50mins or until solid and golden brown.

To finish, have yet another glass of wine to celebrate your success.

So Mr. Africa has made plain that he simply wants to get into my pants.  Which makes him the....4th or 5th guy I've crushed on since last official boyfriend who just wanted in mahpance.  Therefore his fantastic, muscular, ass is getting canned.


Which leaves....




Cute Assyrian Nerd!  Who is intent upon proving to me that he is a BAD BOYTM, when he isn't really at all, which only makes him increasingly more adorable.  Which makes me want to pounce him.  Also, he's hot as fuck, from Iran, recently graduated from UC Berkley, and is moving down into my area by the end of the month for his new jorb!   

I get to see him tomorrow, and parents/friend/friend's parents will all get to meet him as friend's parents are giving him two kick ass servers for free.  Because Friendster apparently gave them all their old servers when they ate shit. 

Mak and I wanted to go trail riding through Mexico.  I was after authentic tequila, and herbage, and I accidently the whole thing!!

Suu: what do you think of the costumes?   



Everyone else: What do you all think?

Aaron Vargas has been in jail ever since Feb. 8, 2009, when police say he shot and killed Darrell McNeill, the man he alleges sexually abused him when he was just 11 years old. After the shooting, 12 other men came forward to say that McNeill, a former Boy Scoutleader and popular member of the community, had also abused them. Some had reported the abuse but law enforcement officials took no action.

People are rallying that this guy should be released.  What do you guys think?  I'm a bit torn on the matter, especially given my history.  On one hand IF this man was guilty of molesting children I think he can go rot in hell.  But what if he's innocent?  Or, is it worse to commit murder?  Was Vargas justified in killing this man?

What do you think?

So my laptop has decided to not let me type, and when I restart it gets stuck in the restart--looping through it, and beeping.  Or I get some primative "set up" screen that doesn't function. 

I'm about () close to throwing it through our glass door.  What do I do?

You were in my dream last night.  You were trying to kill everyone because you wanted to lose weight. 

THINKING OF MOVING?








WHY DON'T YOU JUST MOVE INTO MAH PANCE?????





They come fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and hardwood floors.

For I know the answers to all questions.

Day 2 of house-wide flea genocide has commensed!



     

Last week while I was subbing in the JK room at preschool, one of the children commented that his Rudolf looked like a zombie because he was missing the little black circles on his eyes.  Naturally, the other teacher and I had a good laugh at this little boy's construction paper Rudolf, and tried to make up words to "Rudolf the Zombie Reindeer".


So itt: we butcherimprove christmas songs, one line at a time.  I'll start.


Rudolf the zombie reindeer...

Would someone be able to do me a huge favor and attempt to lighten a couple photos for me?  They're for my externship project, and came too dark to see where I marked, and I don't think I have a program on my laptop to lighten a couple of the shadowy ones up.

STEP RIGHT UP! 




COME ONE!  COME ALL!  AND ALLOW ME TO SPEW MY HATE ALL OVER YOU LIKE A BAD PORN VIDEO!

 

So we can stop threadjacking Suu's corset thread.  Also, so I can spam all of you with my needless hrosie updates.

Not safe for anyone

ONE OF THE PARENTS AT PRESCHOOL CAME DRESSED AS REAGAN TODAY

They're trying to get me.  I see it in their faces.  Those smiley faces that are just so happy.  Or rather, they think they're happy.  They tell me I made a mistake when I broke up with my then-boyfriend.  He was so sweet and perfect, just like them.  They're all so sweet and perfect.  Except for one small detail.  They aren't any of those things.  All of their smiles, their advice, their habits, Tupperware parties, and luncheons are all so empty, so judgmental.  But the funny thing is, or rather, the scary thing is that they have no idea their entire lives are just one big parade.  One big endless, vapid parade. 

They tell me that my opinions are only that way because I'm young, and don't know any better.  They say one day I'll appreciate the idea of having kids, settling down, and having a nice quaint marriage (read: unhappy and sexless) marriage like theirs.  One day, they say, I'll want kids.  Children that are as unruly, or as unhappy as theirs because Mommy and Daddy have ideals Tommy and Timmy must stick to.  When I say that I don't want those things, that I want to actually live, they just smile.  Those smiles.  They're so empty, so helpless. 

But I'll never be like them.  Even if I do decide to 'settle down' and have a family.  It'll never be like theirs.  They're trying to get me.


But they won't.

NEW ORLEANS – Two civil and constitutional rights organizations called on a Louisiana justice of the peace to resign Friday after he refused to marry an interracial couple, saying any children the couple might have would suffer.

TOOK MY INTERNETS?????????

WHAT SHOULD I DRINK TOMORROW?*
















because you know, I've never EVER had alcohol before...

How do I make it without 1-making it slimy, or 2-making it curdle like that shit from panda express.  I want to start experimenting with tofu dishes in our wok.

ECH, have you ever tried soaking some apples in cinnamon/sugar water (perhaps with some small holes so they will absorb the c/s water more easily?), then baking them in the oven?  I was thinking about trying out something like that, maybe to bring to work for the staff, but I'm not sure how to go about it, or if it would even work.
