New Dog

犬 あらた Inu arata

Or is itあらた Arata inu ...hmmm still have no clue in word order, forgive me! (済みませんsumimasen!)

It’s only 7:00pm and I’m already yawning…I’m so sleeeeeeeeeepy! I’m on a 4-12 schedule right now so it’s kind of odd that I’m already tired, but well…it happens I guess. Only 5 more hours to go before I get to go home!!! Tomorrow night will be worse though, not only do we have a bus coming in (they are all Chinese! Too bad it wasn’t Japanese… :)) but I’m also going to be attempting a change over to a 12-8 shift. So after my 4-12 shift tomorrow night I’ll attempt to stay up all night and only go to sleep after 8am so I can get a proper sleep and not have to worry about being too tired when I go in at midnight on Sunday. But wait, it gets worse, right after that one 12-8 shift I have to do yet another shift change BACK to 4-12. So that means that I’ll be trying to stay up alllllllll day Monday so that I can go to sleep after midnight so I can (again) get my proper sleep so when Wednesday comes I’ll be able go through my 4-12 shift without being asleep at the desk. But I’m not complaining! Oh no! But I would like to say this: Ugh…that’s it, that’s all I wanted to say…ugh.

Anyway, enough bitching and moaning, it’s been about a week since I last updated so I guess we should get down to business so-to-speak. Things are well, as well as can be expected which is great. Crystal got herself a new dog yesterday from the animal shelter. His name’s Quincy, he’s a mutt of some sort, Crystal took pity on him because apparently he was brought back a few times. Angel’s NOT getting along with him as well as I would have hoped. Now, anyone that knows my dog, and has ever seen my dog around other animals (especially other dogs) knows EXACTLY what I mean. Angel is very possessive of me, I’m her mommy and that’s that. So they’ve chased each other a few times, barked and growled and sniffed each other’s butt’s a bit. It’s only been two days but I really hope they both calm down with each other soon. Otherwise, I’ll need a new bottle of Advil VERY soon. Unfortunately though, the cats are not taking to Quincy so well, if you can call how Angel’s behaving “well”. That’s a sin, because I know if Crystal thinks long and hard about it, she’ll end up having to give away the dog. Her cats are just about everything to her now. Poor Quincy doesn’t deserve to be taken from one home to another, he needs a permanent home…Enough of that too now, I’ll start to feel heartsick.

Well, to be quite honest not much else is new lately besides the new addition to the apartment. So I think I’ll leave this as-is tonight, upload the entry when I get home after work and try to remember to update more frequently. Ah, and as requested check on the roommate’s clothes in the dryer, must not forget!

Well, for now, it looks like the blog goes on…
