I cancelled my mom's visit. I am still dying and I just can't. She was disappointed, but accepted. She's coming in three weeks instead. Sigh.
I should go to bed right now, but it's been a stressful evening, so I'm waiting for my brain to calm down. And I feel like every post I make here is depressed, so a little happy update:
Dog training was fine, we're still a power couple, the dog and I x)
And after there was a lecture about problematic dogs, which I don't have, but I'm always interested in learning about how dogs work. And this was a positive training lecture about dogs language, and how we should use their way of working in a group, based on wolves, to take control. No yelling, no physical punishment, just a few easy ways of showing the dog that you're their leader. I loved it. As I said, our dog isn't a problem, but our old one... I could have used this knowledge with her! She was a real queen and a pain in the butt.
I loved it. I'm wondering if I should aim towards some sort of future in dog behaviorism. But nah, there's a reason I don't work. But I still like the idea of learning as much as possible.
And, speaking of, I asked our trainer if they could write a description of the homework in the group on Facebook, for those who isn't there. And she said NO. Well, because she'd use a day or two just typing it ๐ One-finger-system. But she said if I'd like to do it, I should. And I said yes. All just try to write what they tell us.
So tomorrow I'll write the last two homework on Facebook. How to learn the dog to lay down and how to start leaning the dog to heel (I think it's called in English).
I feel a bit proud they trust me to do so.
I don't think I have anything new to talk about. Still tired as fuck. Today I slept for two hours on the couch (or I wouldn't have been able to go to dog training) and I was still dying.
Oh! I signed up for a text-based RPG (play-by-post) site - it's just the usual suspects with a few new faces (for me). The RPG-scene in Denmark is really small. It's just the same people as it was 10-15 years ago ๐ I do have some history with a few of them, but I'm letting myself exist. I don't have to interact with everyone. I do have the right to be here.
This one is a Hallmark-type of game with a small village and the drama there. I made a young man who was sent there to live with his aunt because he made to much of a scene at home in NYC and that's not good when your mom is aiming for mayor and your dad is a rich bastard. I'm looking forward to make some drama 8)
I also joined a site where there's no set setting, but you can make whatever you want. I hope I can get someone interested in playing with one or two of my characters from my writing, but honestly, I don't associate myself with the "Character Factory" for nothing x) I'll just make something that fits someone's dream RPG. I can play almost anything and in any setting whatsoever.
I feel a bit on edge though. RPG has some bad memories for me, I was in a bad place in a toxic environment and lost my whole circle of "friends" at one point. There's just so. much. drama. in those circles. But since I can't get myself to write on my own stuff, I need an outlet. And people are not very critical when it comes to RPG.
It's fine. I can walk away anytime I want to.
Oh well. I think I'm about ready to go to bed. Hubby already went. I'll take the (very tired) dog out and then get to it.
I'm looking forward to a couple of weeks with nothing but dog training twice a week. I need a break.
