that's exactly the problem. my vet and i misunderstood, and thought that having the EU Pet Passport meant you didn't have to wait six months (not that it would have changed much if we hadn't made that mistake because i only started considering moving to dublin a couple months ago). i can't leave my dog behind for six months, and if i'm not moving to dublin right away it's senseless to plan on sitting around waiting until my dog can go. at this point i think i am just going to have to resign myself to either staying in rome or find some other city i would like to move to. either way it fucks up my plans and means i am stuck in a long distance relationship.
and yeah, i thought of the uk loophole but the uk is actually stricter than ireland for transporting pets :(

unfortunately i think it only applies to major things. this year something similar happened to me where instead there were two really horrible instances where i visited my parents and they were insane and screamed at each other a lot and broke some dishes and kind of threatened to kill each other and i had this identity crisis, of sorts, where i could't get any work done for about a month and couldn't even sleep it off cos i also didn't sleep for a month, so i ended up doing really unbelievably terrible in two important exams i wrote in that time. even though in the end i still ended up with good grades this semester, i am kind of disappointed in myself in that they should have been much better considering how much work and how little sleep i was getting. ah well. i couldn't do the academic consideration thing cos i never saw a counselor or did anything about it but it's something i definitely wish i had known about. and now you do.

I didn't see a counselor either! And now the semester is over. I think I'm fucked. But I am exploring options, so thanks.

Hmm. Today was the busiest day I've had at work so far, and apparently it will only get busier. I can well believe that a supermarket would be very busy near Christmas but HOLY CRAP THAT STORE WAS BUSY. I haven't ever seen so many people in one room before! One very big room, granted, but still. It was heaving. It took one person three hours to get round the shop.
A few moments of drama: one of the Scouts who was doing some bag packing fundraising balanced a jar rather precariously on a trolley, and the woman who had just bought it moved the trolley and it fell off and smashed. The woman shouted at the boy, and then at my manager who was more bothered about cleaning up a pile of broken glass than she was about getting a replacement (understandable, really) and then stormed off.
Then later on, there were two boys being talked to by the security guard, two managers and a Community Support Officer. We thought they'd been shoplifting but it turns out that they were attacked by some lads with a glass bottle.
What is the world doing? It is Christmas! We are supposed to be being nice to each other!

I have found myself referring to people as "brosef" "boss hogg" and "boss" without any irony whatsoever lately and I feel really weirded out by it.o
