^hopefully. But yeah where these kinds of animals really belong is in the wild...but due to trashy people like that lions owner some of these majestic creatures don't get to experience that. Instead their best hope is a wildlife refuge that will give them some semblance of a free life.

It's 00:13am but the blood flow in my left leg is so bad I'm considering doing yoga this late at night

That would solve nothing and inflict even more pain. What's the point of hurting yourself?

It feels so weird to hear people my age or younger talking about their spouses, kids, etc. Logically, I know I'm actually probably in my prime reproductive years, but it still feels like I'm too young to be getting married or having kids (not that I want either anyway).

I've only taken one Torchwood personality quiz because there aren't very many out there. I'm pretty sure it's accurate and if I were a character on that show, I'd be Toshiko. I'm a computer lover. I think I have little bits of all of them in me, however. Maybe I'm a hybrid of Tosh and Ianto. I enjoy making coffee and tea as well.

On Doctor Who ones, I'm almost always Clara or Donna. I think that's pretty accurate and I'd be a hybrid of those two.

I love character quizzes.

Until now I never thought my special skills at a job interview could include being able to eat gluten, tolerate lactose or get a speck of peanut butter in my mouth and not die.

I got a call back for a job at a hostel in San Francisco once just because I listed "wrestling sea lions" as one of my responsibilities at a previous job (on a fishing boat).
Couldn't take the job at the hostel, as I was on the other side of the country and didn't have a place to live in the Bay area, but it was a fun interview. Really probably couldn't handle the job at the hostel, either.

I've been thinking about trying to make a movie about what it feels like to go through the day (or days) for a little while now. Have a few specific images I'd like to capture. Not really a skill that I have. Had a friend who was a cinematographer, but she moved away.
Today was the first time I told anyone about my idea, I think. So it's kind of on my mind right now.
As well as a sort of long term desire to do something like Gonzo journalism.

I'm very ready to get a job - I really wish my therapy stuff wasn't preventing me from doing so at the moment. I'm tired of feeling useless and parasitic - I want to be doing something and earning money.
