Why is everything here completely pointless?
      So my last goddamn baby rabbit died today.  I don't suppose I'll actually tell people because it bums me out so much and I'm so angry and disappointed in myself.  It got out, I guess, although I still think it is kind of unlikely that those fucking babies could get out of the cage I rigged.  I suspect the dog got it, which is even worse because Lola is just the gentlest darling.  She's watched me feed those things a million times, she was undoubtedly just carrying it around.  I found it right outside the door (present style), absolutely matted down with spit with a little hole in its abdomen where I suppose a canine tore his ultra thin little rabbit skin.  It makes me want to cry just thinking about it.  I would guess he died of shock, not even the injury.  Fuck!  I think this was when I was outside watering the plants and I heard her tear off into the back yard and thought nothing of it.  He was totally going to make it, too.  I was going to release him into the fucking wild.  
Why do people even bother. Even if I had released him, how long do wild rabbits live? Is their life worthwhile?
And then I had the terrible idea to watch a movie about underpaid mexicans working as janitors who tried to form a union and that doesn't help my poor bleeding heart. To care about everything so much, all the time, is just exhausting.
I guess posts like this are better when they're written "in the mood" so to speak. Earlier today I was just a wreck about this rabbit and everything. But I'm feeling better now. I like to read. Life is worth living because of enjoyable experiences. The rabbits were worth my time and money because I gained knowledge and I really think next time will be the one; I'll raise a baby woodland creature and it will live. I loved them for a short while. Shit, was it really only 13 days? That seems impossible. I wish he hadn't died.
