So, I'm back in Ice River! I'm not sure how many of you actually noticed my absence, I was pretty stealthy about it. Like my brother, I took a trip down to Miami for the 4th. We visited our mom and grandmother, and our sister made a trip down as well. It was a great time. I really love the 4th of July. Not because I'm horribly patriotic or anything, I just love the firework shows and barbecues and the little American flags on plastic sticks that they hand out for free. Ahaha. I'm so shallow, I know.
Logan's stupid friend Kyle broke my flat iron last week and I finally got it replaced. It only took twisting Logan's arm so far back it nearly broke to get the one I wanted. He's such a cheap ass. Logan was kind enough to pay for it. He still doesn't get why I wouldn't accept some cheap $20 straightener with metal plates and I've since stopped trying to explain to him why the expensive ceramic ones are better. Plus, if I spent nearly $200 on the last one, I except him to at least try to match the price. That totally isn't unreasonable! If he doesn't get it, he doesn't get it, I suppose.
Anyway! My break is almost up, so I need to end this. I hope everyone's well. I feel like I haven't seen or spoken to some of you in the longest time.

A little kid brought a bird with a broken wing in to the clinic today. He had it in a shoe box with holes in the lid and some bird seed inside. He was so worried about it and wanted to hang around until the bird was all better, but obviously it would take some time for the wing to heal, so we told him he could come back in on Monday for an update. He said okay and that he'd see us tomorrow. So cute. I love little kids.
The weather this weekend is supposed to be really crappy and I'm bummed about that. I was so looking forward to sunny skies for Riverfest, but I guess Mother Nature wasn't in the mood to be accommodating. Oh well. That's fine. I'm sure the festivities will still be great fun even if it does rain or snow or whatever it's supposed to do.
Is anybody in the mood to make a trip to Calgary or somewhere next weekend? I have this urge to get away for a little while and do something exciting.

I'm so bored tonight! And Logan's being an annoying ass.
Hey there, handsome. Do you have time for me tonight?

I hate having friends over when my brother is home. If I bring girls around, he ~discreetly~ stares at their breasts, and if I have guys over, he glares at them. Even if they’re guys he likes, like Sam. Sam was at the house for a few minutes earlier this evening when he picked me up for dinner and Logan just sat there giving him evil looks until we left. I won’t mention that Logan also tried to get me to change before I left the house. He’s so stupid and embarrassing sometimes. Luckily, Sam took the cold shoulder like a trooper. My evening would have been seriously boring if Logan’s scowl had managed to chase him off. And after the day I’ve had, that would have been so depressing.
There’s this woman who frequently brings her dog in to the clinic, and while I don’t usually say horrible things about any of the clients, I’m making an exception to tell you that that old bag is a bitch. She’s always snapping at me and is extremely rude to the assistants and Elliot. Today she was particularly nasty and nearly made me cry at the reception desk. I don’t usually get that emotional in public, but I was already having a bad day. I had somehow managed to file stuff wrong and misplace invoices and spill coffee all over myself and my desk all before noon. Things after noon didn’t get much better. So, I just had a really frustrating day. I blame it all on Jacob. I should have just deleted his email this morning. What was I thinking reading it? I need to pretend it never existed.
Anyway, I should take some Advil and go to bed. Especially before I pig out on leftover Easter chocolate. Which, if anyone wants some, let me know. We have way too much. My mom and grandma went a little sugar happy with the Easter package they sent us.

Instead of going out for lunch today, I spent my break playing with the little girl pup at the shelter. She's just so cute! If someone doesn't adopt her soon, I might cave and take her home with me. And the last thing that little sweetie needs is some silly girl taking her home on a whim just because that silly girl thinks she's cute. Besides, my brother would throw a fit. He complains enough about my cat leaving hair all over the place that I'd hate to hear him bitching about a puppy peeing on the floor and chewing up his things on top of it. So, it would really be best if someone else snatched her up before I have a moment of weakness, ahaha.
Anyway! I'm excited it's almost the weekend. Does anyone have any plans yet? I need some fun after spending most of last weekend cooped up at home with Logan. It was chilly and Sam convinced me it wasn't worth venturing out into the snow while he was gone. Looking back, I'm thinking that might have been some bad advice. As great as Sam is, feeling like you wasted an entire weekend doing nothing but cleaning and going grocery shopping is awful. Those things are important, sure, but so boring. Next time I'm definitely going to brave the cold despite what the boys tell me about all the fun being out of town with them.

I really should have grabbed something to eat while I was out earlier. Now that I'm home, I have absolutely no desire to cook anything. Even microwaving a couple of Logan's Hot Pockets seems like too much work. They're not very nutritious anyway, and I don't need anymore junk going straight to my thighs, especially after that giant chocolate chip cookie I had this morning. Ugh. I really need to start eating better before I turn into a whale. It's so unfair that fattening foods taste so damn good.
So, while I was out today, I went shopping at Shahira's store. It's so cute, I love it. She has a ton of great stuff, too. That store is definitely going to become my favorite hangout in town. Right after the animal shelter and Mendelsohn's. Well, maybe it'll be right there with Mendelsohn's. Anyway! I bought a few tops and some lingerie. Nice lingerie - none of that crotchless pantie stuff, Jamie. I still don't know what you meant by that. So mean!
And now that I've gone from talking about being fat to buying underwear, I'm going to feed my cat and see if there's anything healthy to eat in the fridge. Then I'm going to catch up on episodes of Psych. Later!

Ugh. I ate way too many chocolate covered coffee beans earlier and now I am paying for it. I needed a little pick-me-up at lunch, so I thought, hey! why not eat an entire bag of chocolaty coffee goodness? That should wake me up! Bad, bad idea. First of all, it made me annoyingly hyper, and then as soon as the caffeine high wore off, I got headachey and started feeling incredibly nauseous. Bleh. Never again.
Also? While I'm being whiny, the waste disposal in the kitchen sink is broken. I don't know how this happened - probably from something Logan did. He's always causing a wave of destruction through the house. Anyway, I'm going to have to call a handyman in the morning to come out and repair it. I'd just do it myself, but I'm afraid of taking off my hand and I really don't know the first thing about fixing sinks. Although, if any of you actually do know how to fix a disposal and would like to offer your services, that would be very much appreciated.

I go away for a two week vacation, and when I come back the house looks like a tornado has blown through it. My brother of course makes the excuse that he's been busy with work and hockey and snowboarding, but I think he's just lazy. I know his fat ass was just sitting on the couch the whole time, munching on Cheezies and playing Halo. Don't think I didn't notice the orange dust stains on the cushions, Logan.
This ParksNet blog system has the potential to be a lot of fun, I think. I know everyone is putting in their two cents about it, but I've always been kind of bandwagon-y, so I don't care. Some of you apparently want to use your account for picking up people (you know who you are), but I'm not that tacky. Personally, I plan to go the way of embarrassing my brother every chance I get and laughing about the happenings in town. So much more tasteful.
This is probably a good point to stop and introduce myself. Hello, I'm Cameron! My brother and I have been in Ice River for nearly a year now. He's a hotshot resident at the medical center while I humbly sit at the reception desk in the local veterinary clinic. I'm not bitter about that, though! I love my job. It's fun, I get paid well enough, and bonus, no med school. Okay, so I might be a little jealous that my paycheck isn't as big, but that's the sacrifice I made when I decided not to study.
And I think that's enough information for one entry, so let me stop here! I need to grab my things and run off to work before I'm late, anyway.
