   Yeah, roses really smell like poo-oo-ooo!!


Today's subject was inspired by listening to "Roses" by Outkast. Apparently panda poo is particularly fragrant. >_<

I stayed home today from work because I didn't feel well. As many of you know I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and I had a really bad flare up today. I was diagnosed a little over a year ago. My joints are all swollen and my pain meds didn't do anything but upset my tummy. I have spent the entire day in my flannel panda pajamas. RA is an autoimmune disease that makes your body's immune system to attack it's joints. It really sucks. In the future I have this to look forward too...



I hate it. I have to take all these stupid meds and I hurt all the time. I want to go do things like walk to the other room but hurt too much to do it. I think that is why when I get those stupid NO votes on my art it hurts my feelings since those people don't know how hard it is for me to draw. John had to help me out of bed this morning since I felt like I had been beaten by a band of baboons with bazookas!!

Enough of this "poor panda" rant...let's move on.

The subject at hand is poo.

Speaking of poo in hand, working in veterinary medicine I worked with alot of poo. In when I was taking my Laboratory Procedures class we had to watch this video that talked about accidental contamination. They were talking about not eating while working in the lab area. They were showing this girl doing a fecal analysis while eating Cheetos!! Eeewwww!!! Checking poo for worms AND eating at the same time! Nasty!!

Now don't worry, even though it looks like this post has gone down the crapper, I am not going to ask you about your bowel movements. The question for the day is...

What is the crappiest job you ever had to do? Did you get paid enough to do it? Would you ever do it again if someone paid you more to do it?

The worst job I have ever had was working at a movie theater. It was my first job and one of the jobs was to pick up inbetween shows. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE GROSSED OUT STOP READING! The things you would find on the floor of the theater explains why it's sticky. Empty food containers of course, lots of spilled popcorn and soda pop. Empty whiskey bottles and other alcohol containers. Dirty diapers, used condoms and other odds and ends. It was just ewwwww! I got paid minimum wage for it. I wouldn't do it again if you paid me more. That was just....yucky!! So now, the next time you are in a movie theater and your feet stick to the floor...just think of this little story. :P

YOU CAN START READING AGAIN! I am done talking about icky things. ^_^

Thanks again for visiting and reading all my ramblings. You guys are the best! I appreciate all your support with my art, I was suprised to see my name on the "Highest Rated Artists". That is all because you guys support me. Thank you so much! ::cries:: The next piece I am going to work on is Kumagoro from Gravitation. I am hoping you guys will like it. ^_^

Memo to Riceballs- I finished your Gopher picture and emailed it to you, hope you like it! I did my best on him but I have been feeling really sore the past few days and he probably isn't my best work. He is an original design and kinda fits what you were looking for. If the rest of you guys want me to post it here let me know. ^_^

Ok, I am going to get going. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and I will chat with all of you later. Love you all and thanks for all your support. ::huggles::
