Sara is sleeping and Zim got angry and attacked Gir for no reason and so I tried to take Gir the precious goofball angel out to rescue him/keep things quiet but he only wanted to get back in the cage to his Zim. Rats r dumb.

May 27-28

Oops I have been very busy with the birthday extravaganza weekend and I have yet to post.

Friday I went to work for a few hours and then drove to Richmond to see @Blooketchup I made decent time despite construction. We saw X-men Apocalypse when I got in then we went to Sara’s friend Jake’s apartment. I was passed out on the floor and we left at like 4am and then woke up entirely too early.

We went to a pet store and I didn’t get any rats YAY! I did buy bandit a new collar with fishes on it. He will be a preppy fisherman now.

Then we went to the river with the dogs and Sara’s brother. We all walked barefoot and it was horrible. We dropped the dogs and Michael off and picked up Jake and came back to the river. I fell asleep on a rock for most of the time because I am boring.

Then we came back to Jake’s apartment and Michael came back. Michael and I walked to the store for alcohol and we came back and drank way too much. I attempted to drag Michael into a closet at one point, sadly, I was unsuccessful in my efforts to get some action. I fell asleep on him possibly multiple times and I confessed my love via text to several people. I woke up on the floor under a table on top of a surge protector with Luke Bryan inexplicably on my phone’s background.

Shoutout to the wonderful @blooketchup, who is having a crappy night & losing a beloved rat. She is a great friend/mom/animal caretaker/person & took in a little pregnant Siamese rat from a feeder bin, then found homes for all the babies & incredibly kindly held my precious Phantom for me for months & months until I was able to travel up to get to her. I fell in love with Phantom from the moment I first saw her, before her eyes even opened, & Sara didn’t have to hold her for me, it’s not like she would’ve been a difficult rat to rehome. She does what’s best for her animals & there should be more people like that in the world. <3

December 19

TODAY WAS SO EVENTFUL IT WAS THE FIRST DAY I FELT GOOD SINCE THE WRECK

I awakened in North Carolina pretty early and stopped at a Durham Biscuitville for breakfast. I was still pretty tired and rather than risk driving sleepy I decided to just sleep some more. Finally made it to Richmond around 9am. I went to a lot of thrift stores, a cemetery, Wawa, petsmart, and just drove around exploring. It was chilly but the sun was phenomenal so I parked on a secluded street and napped in the backseat for an hour, it was perfect.

Then I met up with @blooketchup when she got off work and we went to the pet store and I got ratties (pics to come!) and her parents bought pizza and now I am warm and cozy and we are going to sleep AND TOMORROW WILL BE FUN TOO I'M SO HAPPY I HOPE I FEEL BETTER FOREVER
