I went to go get my grandmother from Philadelphia and while we were up there my mom actually took me to walk around the area for a bit.
I wanted to get a philly cheese steak because after the MANY years we've went to PA to either visit or pick up my grandma I've only walked around once, like 11 years ago and I've never had a philly cheese steak.
not much of a story but... it's what happened XD

I and my family were planning on watching a movie together, so we ordered some pizza (as you do) and my parents took the dog for a walk. Several minutes later, my father came rushing through the door telling us that our dog got injured after he ran headfirst into the side of a moving car. Chasing a rabbit while off the lead it would seem.
So we took him to the vets and they told us he had a collapsed lung and that he had to stay with them. We spent the better part of the week fretting over his life and whether he needed surgery or not. Luckily for him, his lung was healing by itself and all the vets had to do was drain his chest cavity of air.
He's now back with us, safe and sound but we've still gotta keep an eye on him so that he doesn't do anything stupid enough to damage his healing lung (like go up and downstairs, bark at strangers, pull on the lead when he has to go on a short walk etc). He's going for a checkup this Friday. He's doing fine and so far he looks like he'll make a full recovery, which is good.
Suffice to say, none of us were in the mood to watch the movie after that. -w-

* Went to FinFur Animus, a Finnish furry convention! Conventions are a whirlwind of events, but few notable ones are: worked as a volunteer artist before the con this year, and got to seem many of my works up as decorations, including a bandolier that they later sold for a whopping 535 EUR @_@. Got to give a Dutch friend their first time in a fursuit. Listened to a live-drawn retelling of Russian folk tales!

By the way! I haven't heard of you guys ever making mention of going to conventions, is that something you haven't ever thought about?

*Did reverse-Halloween! We don't really celebrate Halloween here, so we went out and did it wrong - as in, we wouldn't go begging people for candy, we'd actually just give out candy to people on the street! Pic: https://twitter.com/Karbikworks/sta.....840839683?s=19

I went out this October knowing there was a fox in the field. I had my gun to shoot it because it keeps eating our chickens. Walk through out arena for out horses. Step half way out and hear a rustling thinking it was one of our Barn cats I call "Hey, kitty."

It...was not...a cat. It was a skunk. We started at each other for a full minute before I move and it begins to scamper off and I went back inside.

In short: I go to shoot a fox and meet a skunk. We scared each other and then parted company.

It was raining as I was walking backwards, spreading hand fulls of grass seeds on a patch of newly renovated dirt. My hood was up and my head was down. Suddenly, I stepped into a hole in the ground with my left leg, 4 feet down (over a meter). It was an old steel oil barrel that was buried in the ground, it was going to be filled with concrete and used as the base of a new flagpole. I fell in and hit the rim of the barrel with my hip, my other leg still above ground. It hurt a lot, it felt like I broke my ass. I was one leg in the barrel and just laid there face up in the rain. I rolled around for a bit in the dirt, and needed help to get back up. Everything was sore, but there was no serious lingering pain immediately after (it left a huge bruise for about 2 weeks though).

I went back to work a few hours later, moving a tractor out of one of the barns. It had a cultivator attachment on the back that was folded up to the exact size of the barn door, so it was important that I lower it just enough to not hit the ceiling, but not too low that the blades would tear up the concrete floor as I backed out. Because it was raining, the inside of the cabin fogged up and I swung opened the back window of the tractor in order to get a view of the door frame above. I raised the equipment up slightly, but as the tractor went over the lip of the barn doorway, the equipment tilted towards the tractor cabin and shattered the back window screen I had opened. I got covered in glass.

A few weeks later, the day before we were to fly to Slovakia for a business trip, I was lifting old 50k sacks of wheat from an old dusty attic in a different barn. They were awkward and would tear easily. After a few hours of lifting them into the bucket of the frontloader, I felt like something was wrong. I was super sore and very slowly I started to lose the ability to walk and all the muscles in my lover back and left leg cramped and I fell in the mud and couldnt move for about 15 minutes. I had to wait for one of my friends to come and run out to me and help me up, we went to the doctor and she said that when I fell in the whole a few weeks earlier it did something to the nerves in my pelvis. It wasnt permanent damage, but it was a lot of things going wrong and incredibly painful. I could hardly walk or sit, and I couldnt even put my own pants for the next week. I ended up flying the next day with the rest of my coworkers to Sloavakia, but in pain the entire time. The trip overall was great, even though it was 5 days of pain. Im still recovering right now and feel much better. but still not 100%. I go back to the doctor tomorrow to see how I am.

I've been well!
Not much happened here, sadly. About the most exciting bit was pulling together a new bundle of info on various matters towards materials research, tank armor development, evolution of a language, ammunition propellant, overall tank development, Soviet prototypes, and more. I've been designing quite a few things, so learning more as a whole is wonderful for me.
How have you been though?

My October was quite a good month for the most part. Nothing much happens to me. My mother discovered what was causing her to be so unwell. and we can fix that. So that is good news. Most of the time though i am just lazily laying about like the dragon i am.

I am hoping you two are doing good. Its nice to see the communication between the community and you guys. Feels welcoming!~

Октябрь наверноебыл самым сложным в этом году (я надеюсь что ноябрь и декабрь будут вести себя вежливо), сильно подкосило осознание скорого экзамина,факт того что если я не сдам попаду в армию и конечно сора с одним из самых важных друзей
Ну канешн спонтанное желание поучаствовать в Инктобере и у меня даже получилось!
Простите что на русском, мне всёже ещё сложно свободно писать на английском.

when to a con in mexico guadalajara jalisco called Confuror, had the best time of my life! Make a lot of friends and win some prizes on the events there. Also take a lot of photos that are my treasures.

I put an engine in my new car! Im boring...

Funny enough, I did the same. Resurrected one of my project cars with a new engine(among other things). I can't really call that boring.

Ha, fair enough. If only mine didn’t need more work.

I did some personal art and did a lot of work!! My life is boring lmao.

I went on a vacation beginning Oct 31 st to the UK! Wanted to be there when it took off for the Moon, but the launch has been cancelled so I'm just enjoying some good time right now with a friend. The good times technically began in October... :P

Meh, not much just looking for a new job. My current one just isn’t paying the bills and I’m fed up with it in general.

As usual, I dressed up as a leather horse, but I had an excuse to do so in vanilla company because nobody questions dressing up as a horse on Halloween.

Hiii!

Well, I wore a costume at a Halloween party, something I think I haven't done in 15 years, and had a ton of fun! I also learned something about using skin paints. Painting people's faces is cool!

...and I caught a flu.

How are you? Is life treating you well?

I didnt have time to answer before but: the most interesting event for me in October was when the protests started and I had to walk 9 km to get home from downtown because the entire public transportation system was suspended.

It was all so sudden, it's almost like if a revolution had begun out of nowhere haha

I've been keeping safe from all the mess so far, keeping home for the time being.

Ну, хороших историй у меня, увы, нет.

Октябрь был не самым простым, хотя бывало и похуже. Первую половину месяца я провёл, готовясь к экзаменам по внутренним производственным инструкциям. Большая часть важных день ушла на второй план. Съездил в одну командировку, где впустую проболтался неделю и, предсказуемо, не сдал, т.к. учил не то что надо. Вернувшись, после небольшого перерыва, меня снова выдернули в командировку, уже в другой город, стажироваться в оперативно-выездной бригаде электромонтёров. Покатавшись по местным электроподстанциям за две недели вдоволь полюбовался на ушатанное в усмерть оборудование 60-х и 70-х годов. Была в этом какая-то сталкерская атмосфера, но не более. Был свидетелем того, как в одну мощную ночную грозу, ознаменовавшуюся массовыми авариями, люди не спали по несколько суток, находясь на работе. Толком ничего не делал, только стоял, где скажут и смотрел. Вернулся домой глубоко опустошённым, ведь мне ясно дали понять, что сдать у меня не получится, дополнительно подкинув мне ещё бумажной возни с отчётом, растянувшимся на 4 дня из-за переделываний. Осталась только одна попытка не остаться без работы - ближайшая неделя. Но энтузиазма что-либо делать у меня нет. Из года в год проводя в ожидании очередного "рокового часа", волнение выгорело и стало всё равно.

Вообще, один из самых опустошающих месяцев за последние годы.
Извините за поток уныния. Добра вам там c:
