Words of Wisdom From Cesar Millan
Posted by aranya | Filed under Uncategorized
I absolutely adore Cesar Millan, aka, “The Dog Whisperer,” so I recently started following him on Twitter. He’s one of those people who automatically follows you back, BUT you also get a little bonus direct message that says this:
“Thanks for the follow! Stay calm and assertive!”
I was beyond amused when I read this. But [...]
Pet Peeve Of The Day
Posted by aranya | Filed under Uncategorized
It really bugs me when people start off a sentence with, “No offence, but…”
I mean, c’mon! It’s too late. I’m already offended. You’ve essentially set yourself up for a guaranteed, offence-inducing comment. And who knows? If you hadn’t said, “no offence, but…” I might have actually gone on with my life, unoffended and happy as [...]

I’ve got another article in DVM News Magazine. It’s all about how we love our dogs more than our cats…. well no, not really, but it IS all about why we take our dogs to the vet more than our cats. You can read the full “It’s a Dog’s World” article on on the DVM [...]

Last fall I wrote a trend piece for DVM magazine, a trade publication for veterinarians. I examined the impact that the faltering U.S. economy is having on veterinary care of horses. I used to ride and jump horses regularly when I was younger, but my father would always tell me that I couldn’t own my [...]
Paging Playboy (Or More Specifically, Jimmy Jellinek)
Posted by aranya | Filed under Uncategorized
So, I’ve been sitting here ruminating over all the reasons why I think Playboy should hire me the MOMENT its editorial offices relocate to Chicago, and I thought, “Why keep this tantalizing and persuasive information to myself when I can post it on my website and use it for my own self-interested purposes?” So [...]
aranya tomseth version 2.0 has arrived
Posted by aranya | Filed under Uncategorized
Okay, so I maintained my “Better Living Through Chemistry” blog for several months for the purposes of a graduate school class, but I’m not going to rant and rave about the pros and cons of pharmaceutical drugs anymore. I think I made my point, and well, frankly, I’m bored of that topic. Besides, I’m done [...]
