I got to work at a rabies clinic today. It was an overall good event. There were some really interesting conversations that took place and the others there were all very friendly. I felt like it was a wonderful way to spend a day!
"On Divorced Men" and I decided that we couldn't hike tomorrow since it's raining. We're gonna do lunch instead and plan our day hike for a few weekends out.
I've got more homework to complete than I could have imagined!! I can do it, but it sure is going to take more dedication than I currently have. I keep thinking that if I put it off and ignore it, it'll just go away!

Something Big is Brewing
Some of you may have gotten the emails by now and I'd like to start with a big "Thank you" for the work I know you'll put into your response. This is a rather big, terrifying move for me...and yet I don't think it has come as a surprise to any of my friends. My friends all know that I'm a bleeding heart.
I have to give! I hate to admit it but I feel entirely unfulfilled and empty if I'm not giving something of myself to someone or something else. This upcoming opportunity is important to me and I know it will help to shape me in ways I can't even begin to imagine. With each new venture in my life I am growing and learning and it is because of these ventures that I continue on this path.
I'm scared of course. I'm not one to seek out failure and really believe that if I put my heart and mind into something I can always come out ahead, but I also know that sometimes the battle isn't one you can win. I like to think that life isn't how Barnes' describes it when she says "he comes, he goes away, and everything goes on the same, except that people have something to talk about." I like to believe that although I may come and I may go away, I leave a piece of me in ever place I've been and every life I've encountered. I have an unimaginable number of pieces left to leave in the world and I'm excited to begin this venture. Again, thank you for all your help!

My Arms are Fried!
I did some great things I love today...it seems like I say this ever day...ehehehe! :)
Anyway, I got together with Chad and we went down to some random water area close to the bay...he'd know the place if you ever wanna try and go yourself. Just ask and I can get the info for ya. He has kayakes so we paddled it out onto the water and then...this was the most amazing part of it all...we climbed! Have you ever attempted to climb a cliff starting in a boat. HA! Let me tell you, it was the most challenging thing I've done in a long time (I'd like to say EVER but my memory has been shit today). It was so physically demanding that my fingers, hands, and arms are trembling even though I haven't been moving for some time now. HA! It's moments like these where you learn so much about yourself and your own body. It's great!!! I'm making a pledge to myself to try something (anything really) new each month. NO EXCEPTIONS!
I've actually signed up for my first experience paint balling. I think that should be fun!
Anyway, when we got back I did my taxes - a whole 20 minutes...hahaha, anyway, I can't wait to see that refund! YIPPEE! Now, I'm just chillin' with Chewy, Wally and a tall cold glass of magnesium. Apparently the average person doesn't have enough magnesium in their diet so supplements are a plus plus. It's suppose to be a calming agent...I just like the way it tastes, not sure that it actually calms me any. Oh well!
