Focus ... Nope

That Cashmere arrangement thing didn't last for very long. He rendered my phone charger useless by nibbling on it, he stuck up my room, but that was never my problem with him. What turned out to be the last straw was last night. I was giving him more water - I don't know what he does with all his water every day - and before I was able to set it down, hesunk his teeth into my finger. I've had rabbits bite me before, of course. You can't have rabbits for most of your life without getting a mean one or two. I've had Cloudy, who tried peeing on me every day when I took care of him. I had Sasquatch, who was so huge, when she bit my arm, my hand went numb. I have Clover, who was so strung up on testosterone, that instead of attacking Marvin, he bit my arm and left a bruise. I never had a rabbit break skin before. I was bleeding ... because one of my best buddies bit me because I wasn't watering him fast enough.

I fell asleep crying last night. For some reason, that bite to my finger left me feeling betrayed. My buddy rabbit made me bleed on purpose.

So after I got home from school today, I grabbed him up by the scruff of his neck, hiked out to where the rest of the rabbits are - still holding him by the scruff of his neck - and more or less threw him into his cage. When giving him his water bowl, I slammed his head aside with the bowl to keep him from getting close to my hand, locked him up, and poured water in through the top of the cage. Beyond that, I didn't do shit for him.

I don't trust him anymore. And because of that, every time one of my friendly rabbits - such as Marvin or Dozer - try nuzzling me in a very friendly manner for food, I cringe away. Screw you, classical conditioning! Psychology class ... you never realize what you do until you're made aware of it.

I'll never bring Cashmere near a child again, I'll never bring him in the house again. I don't know if I'll ever be able to cut his nails again. If he bites me again, I'm getting rid of him. There's more than one way to skin a cat. Or, in this case, a rabbit.

On another note, my weekend turned out to be a fail. I worked Saturday because I was scheduled to. I worked Sunday because Owen called in and I had to cover for him. Someone else turned out to be across state, so we were one man short. I got to work up front and top pizzas, whilst Ben had to take care of phones, carry out and cut table. In the end it was me, Tyler, Kevin and Jake. Good golly, I'll never get on Jake's bad side. He has a nasty temper and terrible driving habits. Then again, he is a delivery person when he isn't working manager.

Monday was supposed to be my Dexter day with Caitlin and Emily, but that turned out to be a bust. And I have to work all of next weekend, so we can't do it then, either. One of these weekends I'm going to have to pull together my Rogue costume as well as a Sue Storm costume for Alyssa and a Shadowcat costume for Katie. We're going to cosplay Marvel characters sometime at the end of school. Except I'll actually be LARPing. Y'know what that means. Practice on accent as well as personality. I have Gambit down pat, but I feel inadequate at Rogue, even though I have tried my hand at her before. I've been drawing her all day. Delicious curves.

Speaking of drawing and deliciousness, I went back to finishing that preview picture of Remy for Fallen Apart. I've been drawing bricks so much lately.... But as soon as that's done, I'll scan it and replace the pictures I have up right now. In the end, I might end up redoing it completely digitally. I may be somewhat good at colored pencils, but I can do some awesome work on the computer.

In fact, I'm in the midst of creating this bunny/chicken gryphon on GIMP in the style of what that horse head thing was done. Except this time I learned a few more tricks to for easier going and it's ... a lot less realistic. So far I have part of the ear hair, the beak and the comb done. I have absolutely no reference for the wing I drew. That's going to be a bucket load of fun, if I ever do get to finishing that.

I also need to finish Lila chapter 19. It's been sitting half-finished on my desktop for over a week now. I just don't know how to end this story. I'm getting so near, but I don't want everything to be like: YUP! I'm summed up! Y'all can go read something else now.

And, in case I can't get anything finished anymore, Crystal came up to me (via computer, of course) and asked if she could reopen New Nation. Being it my pride and joy role playing site, in which I didn't want to really close down in the first place, I readily agreed. So I get to role play Remy and Kurt again ... and Liam. My lovely OC Liam. He's a whack job, mind you. But seriously, I'm so happy someone will carry the torch for me when I can't get online to admin the place.

Oh my dear. I have recently discovered that I can indeed drink (vanilla) frappuccinos ... so I do that when I have a late night of Calculus homework. It's weird. I never even liked the slightest hint of coffee taste before. Caffeine. I can't get the side effects of it elsewhere. So I pick up this. Joy.

And as a side note: Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
Hahaha! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die!
