Okay, feeling way better today. I've been energetic for most of today and had a good attitude. I'm not sure what was up with last night's sudden sadness, but oh well. I'm really enjoying my job so far. The people there are great and fun to spend time with, there are many dogs in the office at all times (and I may even be able to bring Honey with me to work), and of course I love visiting the various animals at the sanctuary and petting them. Yesterday I saw the goats for the first time, and today I saw the sheep for the first time (for the first time because both have large areas they can roam and so I didn't see them the other times I've been around). And now, if he's around, I always go to say hi to Frank the pot-belly pig because he's so friendly. Most of the other pot-bellies are friendly, too, but Frank comes RUNNING. Sadie, one of the resident cows, gets to wear a horse blanket in the cold because she's arthritic and a little bit thin. She looks so cute in it!

I called several egg farms today. Mostly got clueless secretaries and message machines, but it's progress anyway. I got hung up on once, fff. Thank you, kind secretary, for shooting down my polite request for the number of birds at the farm, and frequency and size of depopulating, before I even properly got to ask. Also, the mother of a friend I made through BYC was going to bring her older laying hens to auction (not a good place to go), but she called me instead. The hens are going to end up at AnimalPlace and be adopted out instead. I also researched a lot about livestock auctions in northern California, which I may attend at some point (will be depressing but does offer a chance to save some critters possibly), and got a rather strange call about hens behaving like roosters. This does happen sometimes with hens if they have ovarian cysts, but still...an odd call. XD

I uploaded four new icons! ♥ One of a Himalayan monal (the one I'm using), one of a secretary bird, one of a chick, and one of a baby fennec fox. :D

Once NaNo is finished, which for me will be on Sunday during the Night of Writing Dangerously, I have lots of art I want to do! Making a text file list.

Also, that wishlist meme that is going around. I will be trying to get everyone at least one thing on their list if I possibly can. I sometimes fail at actually having time to do things and I can be somewhat forgetful, but I will try my hardest to fulfill as many wishes as I feasibly can!
