Is it not possible to find a pair of shorts that actually covers your butt??? Seriously. Most unsuccessful shopping trip ever. They are either SHORT SHORTS or knee length... why is there no in-between.


And I just want this cold to go away. Or, I want the cough to go away. I guess otherwise all the other symptoms I had are gone now. But it's been over a week, I'm sick of it taking me an hour+ to fall asleep at night because of the coughing, or I wake up in the middle of the night having a coughing fit. I finally bought some cough syrup but I don't know how well it works. I should just go to the doctor but I don't have time for that nonsense. =P
I found some good middle of the road shorts at the Levi's store in JCP

Right there with you. The rest of the symptoms went away a week ago, but this POS cough is still lingering.

I have to try and focus on work today, then go clean out a cage full of bloodied-poop blankets and the blanket that my dead ferret went to the vet in.

Not ready for this. Can I hide under the blankets until it goes away?

Stupidly left my car at the garage next to us overnight. The people that live below us park there all the time so I figured I would be okay for the night.
I totally meant to move it early this morning before they got there, but forgot.

So out walking the dogs right past there just before 9am and got screamed at by the owner. I'm standing there apologizing, with the dogs in one hand and bags full of crap in the other.

The guy was incredibly rude (but with reason, I screwed up). I just feel stupid. I hate the parking situation here.

I was going to go over and offer a proper apology, but reading reviews of the place online tells me that they're just huge jerks to everyone. I just don't have it in me to get yelled at again.
Now I feel like I need to take the dogs somewhere else in the mornings to pee because I don't want to walk past the place.

Anxiety and all that crap sucks :(. I hate being this fragile, like wtf is wrong with me.

(((Hugs))) After Dameon passed away, it took me almost a week to deep clean the cage. Even longer to finally wash his favorite bed. :(

I would take my time, except I'm hoping it will help Barrett if her scent isn't all over the cage. He's been sniffing, digging and dooking in his waking hours trying to find her. :(

Belle has a yucky yeast infection in her ear. I have to put these drops in her ear once a day and clean the ear every other day.

WHAT A BABY!!! Good grief. I know it's not pleasant but the barking and carrying on when I haven't even TOUCHED her yet is a bit much I think. Good grief and the pouting? beyond pathetic lol.

I had a long hard day. I worked 10.5 hours today and it was rough all around. I'm tired and hungry.

I walk in the door of my house, and my dogs greet me. They should be in their crates, that's not good.
The house is TRASHED. Not only did my brother leave the back door (to the outside) WIDE open, he left his bedroom door open, so all of his fast food wrappers and misc. CRAP is all over the floor all over the whole house and I know Maddie's the culprit, because she's all fat and bloated.

And since he left the back door open, there's bugs in the house.


I start to clean up slowly..... Apparently one of them thought it would be awesome fun to chew up my prescription glasses.

Please shoot me now.

I got formaldehyde in my eye today and Ken's friend is moving in because he broke up with his girlfriend. He will probably live with us forever. He'll sleep all day, we'll provide for him and his life will be great...

Mondays have sucked lately.
Thank dog for agility class. Not sure how I'd get by without it.

I have something in my eye... but I can't see it. It burns. And it itches. :mad:


Also, it is way too hot for june. And no one here has air conditioning. I have stuff to do for school... but when its 95° out, this is not happening.

Instead of using treats, try using her favourite toy as the reward instead?
Like we have been trying to explain in our thread about take and drop, it doesn't work with treats when those behaviors are teached to Lotta. Since Lotta likes toys so much, those should be teached so that the reward would be to continue playing with the toy instead.
We have linked a tutorial by ourself where those behaviors are teached without treats in pages 2 & 3 see the last message of the thread. We have tried to ask questions about that tutorial but...
Does anyone know answers to those questions?

Hmph. Guy walks into the clinic, asks about some stuff with his girlfriend, then asks, "What law is there that it's ok to break out a car window if I see a dog inside?" /facepalm

I told him there was no law and it was vandalism and absolutely illegal. He said he'd do it anyway. Tried explaining that dogs don't usually bark in a car if they're in distress, signs to look for, elapsed time, no air conditioning, etc. He wanted no part of it. He said he'd throw a rock through their window. I told him they owner of the car would likely press charges and he will be lucky if the dog is friendly as he closed the door in my face, laughing.

Grumble grumble. And my day was going so well.

Please post your own thread. No one is going to understand what you're talking about and be able to answer you here.

Yesterday my co-worker had a phone call that made me a little suspicious. Today he tells me he has a "doctor's appointment" on Friday.

Yeah right. He has an interview.

Meanwhile I still haven't heard back anything from any of my applications.

ugh.
