I just said goodnight to my poor litle Bunchkin (bunny munchkin, FYI) Nona. She got her baby making organs taken out and is now home. Poor thing is sore and doesn't want to eat much, but I was able to get her to eat some sliced apple, cilantro and banana chips. It was so weird last night (she had to stay at the animal hospital), the place seemed so empty! Anyways, healing vibes would be greatly appreciated!
I'm recovering from the whole POF guy trauma. After I posted my blog entry he texted me again. He asked if we could just be sex buddies (since I wasn't interested in a relationship). Umm....no? Anyways, that made me feel a little less guilty about the whole situation. Anyone who has met me should know that I could never do that.
Oh, and yes, the title of this entry is true! A few lovely events are approaching. A most wonderful person is coming to Ottawa for a few days (*waves* you know who you are!) and it will be delightful to see them again. Also, Monday of next week will be the start of my late summer class. I'm so, so happy to be back at school. I've been off since mid November, and am just excited to be back studying what I love to study. It's actually not a social work class I'm taking, but a sociology class about addictions. I realized yesterday that I knew the prof as a guest speaker from a class last summer. She was awesome and really involved in a lot of advocacy work related to harm reduction, drug policy and honest drug education. Yay!
Academics aside, it will be so nice to be in a class of people outside my major, and just being able to start fresh. When I started University I was able to do this as my past was unknown. However, due to the events of this year many people in my program are aware of my struggles. It's not a matter of them being gossips, but rather genuinely concerned. However, it will be nice to meet people and have them see me as normal. The only other new people I've met recently have been in the ED support group I attend. However, everyone in the group has the assumption that you struggle with an ED (or else why would you be there?). Now I will just get to be a student....how awesome is that?
Also, next week I have a 6 week post operative appointment. Hopefully I will get the news that all is well and that the gas bubble that they inserted to support my healing retina has dissolved. This will give me the go ahead to use air travel. I want to go out west so badly- not Calgary as much as Windermere or Victoria. I miss those mountains, and of course it would be nice to see the family (as awkward and dramatic as it is).
Anyways, I should be signing off. I have an appointment with an administrator from the school of social work....and being over tired would not help me convince this person that I am mentally stable and competent for a student placement. Hopefully it goes well!
Peace, Love and Veggies,
Alex
