I admit it, when I first saw my bunnies my first thought was of a slight disappointment. they were so scared and looked so wild. Snowy's antic relieved me little. At least they had personality. But now I have to say I've completely come around. This morning they came up and snuffled my hand. And they made such sweet vulnerable little noises when I was moving them to the room they're going to be in.

I love my rabbits.

I have read this one paragraph in Quo Vadis, 5-15 times now and I just can't get past it. A big blocky chunk of text devoted to description. I can neither imagine it nor figure out the why's or whats of it. I think its time to skip it and move on, something I don't do by principle but in this case its affecting my reading.

Writers shouldn't do this.

In other news I am trying to work hard and I give myself a week more before I can say I will look to my hobbies and continue the dancing.

There is a streak of stubbornness and cowardice in me that in trying to drive out of me, I have driven deep into me where it lies hidden to rise at trying hours. Take the final summit ascent on Kilimanjaro for example. I must root this fault out

I can feel it inside me, waiting to turn its nose up at difficulties, as if ignoring them squarely in a most royal manner will give me grace for losing out. It's a frightened person's snatch at leaving the room before the ceiling comes down. A feeling that strength and character can carry one no longer and the best thing is to call the grapes sour.

Don't get me wrong, I don't feel it now. But I know anytime I am staring squarely at the face of defeat this trait will rise in me and I will turn away tamely without fighting. No, let me rephrase that. I will feel this urge but I hope that I will rise to the occasion and go down fighting.

You know its a good evening when

-you're listening to someone swear and scream at people who kill dolphins

-oh they're real!

I don't think I have laughed so much in one evening before (obv not because of the dolphins)

What is GDP? Are my people happy?

It's called a learning curve, stupid!

Just when you think you're done being a fan girl.

I love watching Merlin! It's so campy and silly and its a real estrogen brigade. Ho yay!

Was looking at company management changes. Was looking under the announcement of cessation section for a certain company where a certain director was listed. Cause of cessation? Expiry at 59.

"Are you from McK?" he asked

"No, I'm from the other."

"Ah, that's good. I hate the McK."

Hmmm... I am going to have to learn to deal with the general perception of people in this line of work
