Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken.

— Oscar Wilde.

Full disclosure: the quote above came with this layout. It felt appropriate so I decided to keep it around for the time being. I’m sure you wonder who I am, what this blog entails and why I’m even doing it in the first place.

For the sake of anonymity – I am a 25 year old female that lives near the west coast of North America (woah, specific right?). I am a vet tech – a registered/certified/licensed veterinary technician. In simplest terms, I am basically a nurse for animals. I can hear the vet techs in the back screaming *noooo we’re so much more than that*. While I agree, for sake of ease I am going to leave it at that for now.

Lately I’ve found myself feeling unfulfilled in my career. I’m so sick of the typical Monday to Friday nine to five work week. I have a lot to say about a lot of different things, some of it related to my job, some of it not related at all. I have always liked to talk (ask anyone that grew up in my household) and feel like now is a good time to start putting my thoughts to paper. Well, keyboard. With this blog I’m hoping to reach out to fellow vet techs, other women, anyone needing inspiration or even someone just looking for a laugh. I’ve been told a time or two that I’m funny – I’ll let you all be the judge of that.

I’m excited to see how this blog develops and where it goes. Whether I have one subscriber or one hundred subscribers, I’ll be humbled by the fact that there are people out there that want to hear (read) what I have to say.

Let’s do this.
