Hertio's needs

Heratio is used to commotion. He is used to people coming and saying hello to him and sneaking him treats. He is used to being pet all the time. he is now alone most of the day. and when I do come home, I usually am sleeping a few hours later.

With his rabbit agility classes, I am learning more about bunnies; and one thing I learned is that bunnies need a real companion. They bond with each other (sorta like best friends) and develop great relationships.

Heratio and I have decided he needs a wife. He has girlfriends, but he needs more. He needs a warm body ever night and someone to bicker with, he needs to know he is not alone.

Just like me.

So, we are on the hunt. And to be honest, we are both kind of picky. He likes his woman looking good..all cute like. And I want someone that enjoys cuddling as much as him. we need someone that is laid back, and OK with relaxing and watching movies.

We both agree a bunny his size is best, so a sort of small bunny.

And one we will love. Because I saw Heratio, and knew he was mine, before I even held him. we need that same affection for our new friend.

So, we are on the lookout for a nice piece of ass for Heratio Cane.

Rabbit Agility

Heratio is taking rabbit agility classes. He is learning how to sit, hop and turn left and right on command.

No, this is not a joke.

Yes, I am paying for these classes.

Now, can we get back to the story please?

He has gone through one class, and he is amazingly good at sit and hop. I tell him ‘heratio sit’ and he sits. I tell him ‘heratio hop’ and most of the time he hops. If you would have seen our walks before, and if you see them now, you would be amazed as well.

But this class is also to socialize bunnies. And that is where there is a problem, you see, heratio is spoiled, and doesn’t exactly know he is a bunny.

So while the other bunnies hop around and say hello, my bunny sat in a corner. And when bunnies came up to him, he put his head to the ground until they hopped away.

Near the end of hoppy hour, he started SMELLING bunnies, and that is a BIG step and I was very proud of him. until about five minutes later when he started biting the other bunnies; and got thrown in time out.

Apparently my rabbit is rather stubborn as well, because apparently he did not learn anything from time out, and went back to biting.

Guess who got kicked out of hoppy hour?

Yea, Heratio Cane. The baddest Bunny around.

My goals.

People always say ‘if you want something do it’ but no one ever believes them. but this past year, I have done just that. I never thought I would travel or actually meet Gord. I never thought I could afford to move out on my own.

This is the year I found a lot about myself, and its only august. I discovered how strong I am. I found out if I want to do something, I just have to come up with a plan and do it. I DO enjoy travelling. And it feels so good to tell people ‘yea when I was in DC this year…’ ‘oh I got this when I was in Vancouver..’ it makes me feel like I am doing something right.

I can tell people I have accomplished things this year. I have done a lot of things I never thought I would do. I moved out ON MY OWN. I am capable of taking care of myself. I do not need anyone to help me. I can do it. I can achieve things.

Once I decide I want or need something, if I want it bad enough, I will do it. it shows me how strong I am and how independent I can be.

I love this feeling. I love achieving my goals.

The only problem I am having, is that I am running out of goals to achieve.

Vancouver

Five days after I moved out, I went to the backstreet boys concert (eeekk!) and then flew to Vancouver.

It was amazing. Everything was amazing. I love spending time with Gordon. We saw so many things. He introduced me to mountains and the ocean. He introduced me to suspension bridges and lynn valley. We found how amazing gilato is, and rediscovered hand holding.

I know when I am with him I am taken care of. I know he will not allow anything bad to happen to me. I feel safer with him than I have ever felt my entire life. I think that is one of the reasons we work out so well; he is a protector and I like being protected.

I love his presence. Him just being on the couch and being able to look at him. or waking up in the morning and seeing him. it’s the little things that people that aren’t in a long distance relationship don’t really notice.

I want to go back, the sooner the better. I do not want to be without him. he makes me laugh and smile and I feel perfect when he is around.

With every trip, and with every time we get to be together, the distance gets harder and harder and I miss him more and more. But, we are working on it, and we love each other and want to be together. so as long as that stays the same, everything will work out.

I just want it to work out a wee faster than it is working itself out.

New Home

I have so much to say! I FINALLY have internet access at my house, so now I can tell you all about my life this past month and a half.

I moved in, and this place is perfect for me. its an old old Victorian home converted into apartments. But it has the old woodwork and the old radiators and the old fireplace and all of that stuff. It fits me well, because I am sort of an old soul type.

I always go overboard when I grocery shop. I mean, its only me, do I really think I need all of those groceries? So, needless to say my cupboards and freezer and fridge are gradually getting filled. Which is exciting because that makes me feel all adult like.

I am much happier on my own that I was living with my parents. I think I have just out grown their home.

I was rather excited when I got my FIRST BILL. That was a sign that this is real, I am grown up, I am an adult. And I am surviving. And I am happy. what more could I ask for?
