Maybe saying they're not "acting human" is wrong since this seems to be a not-uncommon human behavior thing but ?????? of course someone doing a delivery isn't going to know what's going on in your head use some sense In other news, Grimy the possum is still in rough shape but has a reasonable amount of energy and I LOVE HIM

What kind of cookies?

Man, y'all ain't ever heard of Snake Hoes?

Oh man, that's a big change for sure!! I've never lived by myself before either, sometimes I wish I had for a bit just to learn how to better be alone but that's not how things worked out so guess that's a flavor of life skill i'll continue to lack in! I love that your roomie is still gonna be close and accessible, that should make things easier for everyone, but still very intimidating! Come in here and holler at us if you get lonely, unfortunately for you some of us Center roomies will never ever move out >>

if only

oh shit I keep forgetting who I've spammed with pics and who I haven't Mosey on over to the pet topic where I'll put a post together here in a bit!!

❤️ they're totally just love bites, maybe. probably. possibly. He might wish to eat hand.

yesssssss a good deep cleaning day is good for the soul

What in the fuck

that's not as outrageous as my first assumptions for whatever reason i didn't think you like.... chugged it but that it was consumed in a smaller sitting if that makes sense and i was concerned

Still waiting on that, they said doc should have results within 24 hours but the way the pain clinic runs i might not hear back until next week. I suppose "best" case scenario would be them deeming whatever's going on in there a candidate for surgery (in the past they've flat out said no, they don't want to do surgery on me for a myriad of reasons that boil down to it not really being worth it at that stage) but then again if that's the case I'm fucking terrified of having that done so whatever guess I'll fuckin' die I dunno I won't go too sad sack on here, but I'm stressed lol

I have my suspicions that Daisy (the Mother's Day baby poss) is a dwarf like Fili was... so this is an interesting journey. She doesn't seem food repulsed the way Fili was but she's still a little too weak to try eating on her own so we'll see. I'm seeing lots of dwarf babies in my FB groups too, moreso than last year... might be year of the dwarf possies

Thanks y'all, I'm pretty devastated by this one since I had to treat her as if I was sure she was going to become someone's companion. It really really helps to have support, I love y'all ❤️

ok but what if you did and it gave you the ability to fart a knife at someone twice a year

Oh no. Dementia is such a cruel thing and no loss is ever easy...even if you try and prepare. I'm sorry =(

Oh, as if MT ever does anything I say

POSSUM WATCH 2019: Daisy was handed off to her new family today! One of her new human siblings wanted to hold her on the way home but when told she was already stressed and to let her hide in her carrier and bond with her at home he happily accepted that and said he was looking forward to it, so I think it's absolutely safe to say she's in a great household. (web i hate all these autosmilies, plz die) NOW I GET TO CRY LIKE A BITCH WHILE I FINISH CLEANING OUT HER CAGE BECAUSE AUUUUUUUGH MY BABY

lol nah the MRI was for me and my fucked up spine sorry for the confusion

things have been busy lately and i have the attention span of a gnat but Daisy is finally growing! She's still pretty fragile, but has tons of energy and finally that scale is showing bigger numbers. also right now our a/c is borked because frozen bits so i'm probably gonna die of heat bye

Yeah, that sounds much better. It started being threatening ultimatums of "no one can leave until the entire truck is unloaded" which would mean there were 3 or 4 of us desperately trying to stock around active customers because we were a busy location and it'd really piss the customers off and we'd still not get everything done because we'd have to drop shit to help if asked. I do not understand management choices there

Vet says it's just a little fatty mass, so yay! Still gotta keep a regular check on it to make sure it doesn't morph but god damnit am I ever relieved.

Oh man, I used to do truck shifts for Ulta and that meant going and unloading boxes and putting out product at like 3am on Fridays and for a while it was pretty good, lots of the pros you mentioned... no customers, I had earbuds in..... but then they banned us from listening to music and the deliveries started getting STUPID ridiculous for what was mostly a crew of petite women (and then me with the bad back, but that was a whole other weird issue) and then they'd make us stay later and later and it was just...... no good. Sometimes I think fondly of listening to an audiobook while lining up eyeliner though haha

welp my mentor sent her husband and one of her sons to fetch a cage from me and these fuckers stroll in to my house with a cardboard box tied up with a bow that has "Happy Mothers Day" written on it baby possum inside I can't even be mad lmao

Man I have had A MOMENT. Got my first batch of baby possums for rehabbing this season yesterday and while we were over at my mentor's house Lee noticed a slightly older possum by itself in another cage and wanted to take a look.... turns out this little dumbass got himself stuck in a chimney and was COVERED in soot. Naturally, we named him Grimy and took him home with us to rehab. Little dude was fucking COATED, he's right at the stage where they really start getting in nice thick fur and he was just saturated. Took a very thorough bath with a very angry little opossum. The paper towels we wiped him off with were turning black. Once we got him clean we discovered a pretty nasty tail wound, so I spent the night agonizing over whether he'd make it through the night long enough to get to the vet today (last time I had one with a huge tail injury she did not make it.) Good news though, Grimy went to the vet, his tail does not appear to be necrotic, just bruised to east jesus and back, so he gets pain meds and to be a spoiled lil poss with tail rubs until he gets better.
