Re: YOU! YOU BETTER NOT BE SOBER, pt B
Zingoleb:
pet skunks are actually really good animals! the problem is that there's no rabies vaccination for skunks developed yet, so in places where rabies vaccinations are mandatory (i.e. most places) it's illegal to own a pet that isn't vaccinated (not to mention wild animal laws)
some states will let you with a special permit, other states won't let you at all. if you do have one you have to be reallllly careful letting other people handle them, because if they get bit then the skunk gets put down to be checked for rabies.
not to say that they necessarily will - kind of like any other animal, they only bite if they're feeling threatened. you have to raise them from babies (and, yes, have their scent gland removed) and basically have them in pretty much constant contact with you at all times. i was really this one woman's story who said that she tucked her shirt into the waist of her pants and put the baby skunk down her shirt, and it would curl up and go to sleep against her stomach, which just oh my gosh just sounds like the most adorable thing ever, i mean look at this thing:
(confession: i really love skunks and they are above and beyond my favourite animal. mmhmm, yep, yep, yep.)
thread related: this pot i just got is fucking great and makes me feel like i'm on shrooms. also, i'm seeing my therapist in an hour so i shouldn't have smoked but oh well
Aethien:
Therapists are good people.
Well, mine is. Helps that he's only ~5.5 years older than me, specialized in autism spectrum disorders and a metalhead too.
Also drinking Weihenstephaner Korbinian. Delicious brew from a brewery that's been active without pause since 1040. Their almost 1 foot high glass is gorgeous too and makes you feel like you're drinking way more than the 0.5 liter of beer that it holds.
Zingoleb:
this one is...getting better. she has a rubik's cube, which is nice because it provides a handy cover for my complete and total lack of eye contact.
nekowafer:
My therapist gets on me for not making eye contact and she made me stare at her for like ten seconds and it was awful. Also I don't think I could see a therapist while stoned. I'd be too giggly.
Aethien:
I don't think my therapist minds if I stare at his shoes instead of his face when we're discussing difficult topics. Or he's wise enough not to bother bringing it up anyway.
