That quiz kept making me laugh. OMG. So funny.

Gah I forgot to take my afternoon drugs. I need to start my laundry. Also, make cookies. My mom bought the missing ingredients. Yay!!

I keep having this lingering feeling that I'm coming down with something. It's really freaking annoying.

Work this week and last week is a job that's stressful but I like anyway. I just wouldn't want to have to do it every dang week.

I'm sending out the charts going to other locations. What makes it a pain in the butt, is a good portion of the time the charts are somewhere else in my building, and I have to track them down. First thing I do is send a router, basically saying "you have this chart, but this person over there needs it, send it back down." They're supposed to send the chart down with the router on it, so that the people working the middle (answering phones etc) know to give it to me. But they hardly ever do. I get back maybe a tenth of them. It's so goddamn irritating. Once a day or so I literally go around the building harrassing departments for charts. I know the doctor hasn't done her dictation, but it has to be in Tigard for an appointment tommorrow. I'll route it back to you, okay? Gah.

So, yeah. Work sucks. Especially having to be there at seven in the morning. Oof.

Good drink:

a shot or two's worth of cranberry juice (I have the kind that's just cranberry juice)
shot of citrus vodka
sparkling lemon-lime water

Mmm....fizzy.

It's a folk version of Baby Got Back. No shit. Sort of a folk-rock kinda thing, actually.

In any case, it cracks me up. I got the link from my supervisor, of all people.

Yes, my supervisor now has my actual email address. *fear*

I like my icon

Excuse me for posting again, I really wasn't going to. But my parent started up this argument with me, of how could I be vegan and pro-choice?

How can you be pro-life and eat meat??

Gaaaah. Okay, my issue is, what causes the least pain? It's debatable whether or not fetuses, up to a certain gestational age, can feel pain. But I know a cow can, or a pig, or a chicken.

Not to mention that the quantity of pain and suffering caused by the American diet is far higher than that caused by how many abortions happen in one year.

They're trying to prove that my logic is faulty, I find theirs much more so.

It's so infuriating. I almost blew a fuse.

One of these days I'm going to sit them down to watch Meet Your Meat, or something like that.

But then, how do you argue with a person who insists that human life is automatically more important?

Fuck whose life is more important. How can I say that a cow's pain and agony while alive in factory farming condition, is less important than my pain? Pain is pain is pain.

On the issue of abortion: I'm careful with birth control. I'm lucky enough to have been exposed to lots of information about birth control and failure rates and sex ed in general. Not everyone's so lucky. But birth control does fail occasionally, even when you're careful. Nobody's going to make me stay pregnant. Nobody owns my body but me, and telling me that now that an error has occured, that you have to let that fetus develop and give birth to it....to me, that's slavery. Fuck that. I've told my parents flat out that if I get pregnant, I'm having an abortion. They told me that if it ever happened, never to tell them, because they're not sure they could forgive me. They've also told me that they'd be willing to raise it if I didn't want to. Sorry, but no.

Just say no to sex with pro-lifers!!
