14. Worst thing to ever happen to you?
To have a mysterious, painful and debilitating illness for the last 8 years of my life with horrible symptoms and no real diagnosis or lasting cure... ~sigh~
15. Tell me one weird fact about you:
When I was little, I used to play I was a veterinarian med student and cut open dead animals to learn about their insides.
16. Do you have any pets?
A 2-year old Sheltie: Roxie
1 year old Blue Tabby: Kalcifer
10 month old Silver/Cream Tabby: Nelix
3 tropical fresh-water aquariums: 5, 10, and 29 gallons.
17. What’s the weirdest pet you’ve owned?
probably either my southern hognosed snake, my red limousine bottle calf, the fox and flying squirrels I've fostered or my praying mantis to name a few...
18. Where are you?
At work, waiting for the phone lines to get busy.... and hoping they don't. XD
19. What is the dumbest thing you’ve done while intoxicated?
I don't really get drunk... the one time I did I kissed a lot of guys I didn't like or even know. I was almost assaulted in the bathroom because I could barely walk straight, let alone defend myself. That made me feel quite sleazy the next day. So I don't drink like that anymore.
20. If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
My weight. I don't want to be a size 0 (eeeewww) but I would like to be able to have more energy and get out and do more.
21. Weapon of choice?
My loverly Browning Medallion 30.06 semi-automatic bolt-action hunting rifle ~swoon~

Draw, Paint, Read, Sleep, or Have Sex... the order of priority changes according to my mood. XD
30. Do you swear a lot?
Yeah... but I feel that people put too much stress and emphasis into words and that's silly. It's one thing to say the word, another to put that word on a person. Just saying 'shit' is different from calling someone a 'shithead' for instance. I try not to do the latter.
31. Biggest pet peeve?
Not being upfront with me. Like me, hate me, whatever. I'll be glad to keep my distance if you don't care for me, just SAY SO TO ME. I'll appreciate straightforward honesty loooong before I appreciate lying and dodgy behavior.

Women's 12.5 or Men's 11 (yes, I have HUGE wuffer paws :P)

Tres Semme all the way!!!

I have several. Ragdoll, Cool Water, Jessica McClintoc, White Jasmine, Phoenix by Axe (what? I like to smell boyish sometimes) and a Sweet Pea scented body splash.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not a lot to say, I suppose.
I've been hit hard by some illness issues that have me wiped out by the time I go home. I went to a specialist yesterday and they ran a gambit of tests on me, did some blood work, and scheduled me for yet another ultrasound. I'm so anemic I felt positively wasted after they drew all those vials of blood on me. They gave me some medicine that should help build my immune system up a bit while we wait for my test results to come in so I can come back so we can review them and see if something definitive might finally come from all of this. I'm so tired of being ill...
Anywho, the marriage certificate ceremony went well. Being together with my parents and brother was fantastic fun and my Mate and I miss them very much. He's so happy to be able to call my family his own. It's weird though seeing my last name substituted with his... I'm adjusting well enough though. ^__^ Still a little floaty and giddy at times, but all in all just very happy to know we're this much closer to him being here permanently. We just have to file for his adjustment of status from a citizen of Holland to a residential alien of the US. After that, it's just a matter of getting him a social security card and driver's license.
So lot's going on... and I guess I had more to say than I thought. Go me!! Sorry that my musings have taken such a somber tone.... perhaps I'll put more 'yippy-skippy' into my next INS. We'll see.

FA+

#11: extreme dodgeball, is that the game played with them heavyweight, oversized medicine balls?
#14: I heard of some cases where people have amalgam AND gold fillings in their teeth, and the electrochemical currency removed the mercury ions from the amalgam, slowly poisoning them with it... let's hope it's not that, it takes years for the body to get rid of mercury.
#15: "Cumon, let's play doctor!" - "Why, is your new dog already dead, Jim?"
#16: I guess I know which movie lent the name to your blue tabby. :)
#17: what in the world is a red limousine bottle calf?
#29: now that your S.O. is around those priorities might get a lot of juggling around I guess. at least you have a good excuse to not doing new art.
#31: I hate that, too. people received a frickin' cold shoulder from me for this in the past... nowadays even that would be too much affection from my part. heh.
#32: not boring. :)
#33: that would be... lesse, 42? that's actually really big pawsies. how tall are you again?
#35: plum lace bra? *purr* hm, lucky underwear... XD
#36: IM IN UR JOURNAL UTTERING SILLY FRASES KTHNXBAI
http://icanhascheezburger.com/ (just in case. I guess you already know this site. if not, the page count goes well beyond 100 )
#40: smells like Teen Spirit.
all those bluddy blood tests... they want our best, apparently.
"Doctor, the patient went all unconsious on me... at least I was able to take the blood sample. But it's not much more than a bleeding gallon full, I hope it's enough."
ah, so your mate is dutch? nice. now he can sing like Sting, "I'm an alien, an illegal alien, I'm a hollandse in New York!"
XD
14: But I don't have any fillings... and it's actually possibly some kind of freaky cystic fibrosis or god only knows what... they have also considered the possibility of ideopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Try to say THAT three times fast. O__o;; That's what all the tests are for. To try and whittle down a mutlitude of options for why my body is keeping me anemic and bleeding like hell all the time out of nowhere for no godawful reason... Urrgh!! Just thinking about it like that pisses me off. I hate my body.
15: Yeah... something tells me dissecting a dead minnow with a broken piece of glass on a rock in the back yard wasn't exactly a worthy veterinary practice... ^__^;; But I tried!!
16: Couldn't be Howl's Moving Castle... nawwww. :P
17: http://cattle-today.com/Limousin.htm .... to explain, I woke up one morning and looked out the window of our TV room and saw vultures up in the trees waaaay out in the pastures behind my house. Upon further inspection I saw a large red body on the ground and a tiny calf wobbling about next to it. The rest of the herd had moved to just a few yards away and kicked at the calf if it came near them. Fearing for it's life, I ran out and hopped on my quadrunner and chased down the little fella. When I passed the mom, it appeared she'd expelled her uterus and bled to death shortly after the baby was born.
It just so happened we'd just gotten done sending our holstein steers to butcher, so we had some milk and calving bottles left over. After a few hours of chasing him down in the cold drizzle, we got him in our barn and started him on some hot freshly mixed milk. He'd received some colostrum from his momma before she'd gone down, so he was alright. The guy who owned the cattle back there was so impressed by my story of 'heroism' that he gave the little boy calf to me as a gift for my efforts because he had no interest in rearing the orphan. Redd stayed in our 1/2 acre pasture until a freak accident in which a bad snakebite evidently caused him to fall down a rocky ledge, leading to his death at the tender age of 2 1/2 years. He was a good little boy and is sorely missed. I loved romping with him in the paddock on my quadrunner... ~sigh~ Good memories.
29: You guessed right!! XD "Hmm... sketch this commission or... fuck like bunnies... hmm... decisions decisions..." Let me have my honeymoon and get it outta my system and I'll be back to sketching up a storm soon enough.
31: People like that are just pathetic and not worth anyone's time. If you respect someone, you are straight forward with them. If you can't even begin to offer me a little respect, you're NOT worth my time.
32: Why thankyou. ^_^
33: I'm 5'11".... quite tall for a female of the species. I wish so bad I was shorter with daintier feetzies. ; _ ;
35: *blush* Again... why thankyou. ^__^;;;;
36: AWESOME!!!! O o O;;
40: Murr? O.o
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yeah, reminds me of when my brother used to drink the whole soda and when I'd cry and remind him we were supposed to share half, he'd simply reply his half had been on the bottom, so he had to get to it by sipping away the top half. Whatta jerk. Maybe they need the bottom half of my hemoglobin?? O ___ O;;;
