Animal loving.....

So folks ... the votes are in ... and yes ... I am ... employee of the month!! Check me out! My love for animals is so great that I actually excel at all things animal related enough to win a box of chocs! yum yum yum! And my chocolate ban is up on Sunday so it seems the perfect time to win such a thing!  Here is a few things I have learnt about animals in the past 24 hours ...
1) Greyhounds and Whippets have thin necks with not much muscle ... therefore normal collars can effect their trachea's so they have special collars ... they should also never wear a choke chain.
2) Drontal is the only worming medication that covers dogs and cats against all worms ... and these worms are not pretty, I saw pictures.
3) We own what may be the cutest bunny known to man .. and it has funny tear ducts ... and its ugly .. which makes it even cuter.
So there you have it ... my top 3 animals facts for the week! Although the last one is not really a fact .. except it is.

To end this note I would like to say that I have infact FINISHED my dissertation.....thats right! all done and dusted! fantastic!

Au Reviour!

Times a Ticking

When I arrived at work today I was a calm collected and normal human being.
When I left work today I was a person of mad panic and the ability to self destruct at any moment.
I realised, halfway through my shift, the extent of the amount of work I actually have left to do in the following 6 weeks.  And no, I am not talking about cute little rabbit and other small animal related work.
In the next few weeks, I am going to be bogged down under a pile of dissertation papers, writing and re-writing my work, to get it condensed into a short 12,000 word piece of something that is worth marking.  I thought I was going along well with it, until I realised that the big chunk of it in the middle I have yet to start, and that I should really get started on that! Shit a brick ... it takes it out of you.  And I also need to re-post on the marketing discussion boards.  God bless my university and its thinking that posting on internet discussion sites is a valid 50% of a final year piece of work. Bull shit.  If I come out with a good grade I will jump off a roof in shock.  At the moment I am on a 71.5% for my course which leaves me with a first class honours degree ... which is not what I am going to come out with at the end of the year after the shambles of this semesters classes.

Anyway that is enough ranting and raving from me .... I am going to be productive and go and watch dancing on ice!!
