a sad but interesting blog found

http://whatikilledtoday.blogspot.com/

I went to this blog called what I killed today. This guy works with a lot of injured wildlife and he talks about all the animals he couldn't save from day to day. Like a 12 year old cat with a tumor or a dwarfed hamster. If you read some of the entries, the way he writes it makes you feel really bad for the animals. I think even if you strongly hated animals, you'd still feel sad.
I read this one blog entry by this guy and thought it was interesting. He said that it's not unlikely for an animal to give up and die shortly after an owner has died. I wonder if my cat would feel bad enough to give up on life if I died... probably not.

be better grandma!

This sunday is the slipknot, but more importantly Coheed and Cambria, concert. All the plans are worked out. The ride to and from Iowa is ready. The tickets are ready. My friend and I have our punk outfits ready.
I've been looking forward to this for months! But there's one slight problem...
My grandma had another stroke.
She hasn't eaten in four days. She's in the hospital and she's not doing very well.
To my dismay, my dad had to take my car to Elwood to go be with his sister and brother. Since my brothers car died, he took my dads up to college. Which is why he had to take mine, because my mom wanted to keep her car in Fremont just in case we have to go up there.
And we are pretty sure we'll have to. It's just a matter of time.
I can't wait to go to the concert... but I might be attending a funeral instead.
Sometimes things just don't workout...

expert

I'm an expert at being a friend. I can never get mad at people, but when I do my anger doesn't last more than an hour. And I stink at yelling at people because I never know what to yell about. I like to be there for people and listen to them talk. And if they're feeling down I try my best to cheer them up with as much humor as I can muster. But I also know when to be serious. Especially when dealing with a friend with a broken heart. If a friend calls and says they need me I'll be in my car within seconds and be on my way... unless I'm at work or school or the shower or something along that lines. If a friend needs my opinion I'll happily give it. But I won't express it unless it's needed and/or wanted. Because sometimes a friend can guess what your opinion is and don't always want to hear it.
To me the most important thing about friendship is trust, laughter, and love!
