Less than a week until classes start

and I think I'm ready. Thursday, a bunch of the vet students are getting together for a bonfire on the beach, so I'm excited to meet my new classmates, and I've got a couple of loose ends to tie up, but I think I'm ready for this.


Hopefully, soon this blog will be more of what it was originally planned to be: an in-depth look at a student's journey through vet school. During the application process, I got rather addicted to a couple vet student's blogs, but I couldn't find one that corresponded with Western U and their PBL curriculum. I'm going to try really hard to keep up with posting, so hopefully in 4 years, somebody who's curious about the whole process can read from beginning to end what to expect.


In other news, Skwissgaar is feeling a million times better than last week. The first couple days he was home, he mostly slept a lot, and would only eat a couple bites of wet food, if you really tempted him. Now he's running around like crazy, eating normally, drinking, and generally annoying the crap out of me. I've never been happier to be annoyed.


I also finally got my car tags taken care of, and now officially have a California car. I bought the car in June, and didn't want to have to transfer the tags, so I decided to drive it here on temp tags, and register it here when I could. Bad idea. It took forever for my bank to get the title from Colorado, and when I showed up at the DMV, nobody knew how to deal with an out-of-state car that had not previously been registered. It took 3 hours, and having to get the teller at the DMV to consult with her manager, but its taken care of. And to make me smile, my new liscense plates have a "TA2" in them. Stupid textspeek? Sure, but this tattooed freak appreciated it.
