Also, we have a shipping company! The original one I had found started acting all shady, not returning calls and just all sorts of nonsense. So the we were scrambling to find a new one today and we did! The food truck should be here by Monday and it was still a very affordable price to do so.

If you're still considering other options, that's how we got the S4 down to NC. The guys that picked it up were very personable and kept me updated on where they were and when they'd be here. The whole process was as smooth as can be. :)

I have had gummy bears, cola bottles, grapes, and blackberries soaked in vodka. I played a Doctor Who drinking game with my brother involving 3 drinks.

Bad news: I'm still sober enough to answer the random question :/ I HAVE FOUR DAYS OFF. I SHOULD BE DRUNK.

Payton slept last night instead of pacing and whining. Which meant I got to sleep too.
Blissful.

It's supposed to be almost 90 at the lake today so I think I'm going to pack him up after lunch and take a little road trip with the bad puppy...

Just spent a nice afternoon with a certain Border Collie, a certain GSD, two lovely red ACD's, and my own two dogs at a nice secluded lake island. :D



Oh, with great people company too! :p

Found a job. Bank teller, so the hours are nice and pay is good.

I'm settled in pretty well here, but I still want my own place. Zander has made friends with the resident dog and cat. BF appears to be trying hard to make things better.

I guess that's all pretty good news.

I :lol-sign: over the last picture--a tired Joey is a good Joey! congrats!
A tired Joey is a good Joey indeed. The motel doesn't want him sleeping on the bed so they have me a blanket for him to sleep on the floor. Considering this place smells like **** and cigarettes even though I asked for a non smoking room I don't give a crap and he is sleeping with me tonight.

Met Laurelin, Mia and Summer today. Summer is such a love.
This vacation is really what I needed.
Current work wants to talk to me about changing my schedule around, and making me bingo manager.
Things are looking up :)

The concert was crazy perfect. Took us 10 hours to get there though. Was supposed to be a 5hr trip but we got a flat tire and waited 5 hours for a new one. Of course my sister and I were bawling because we thought we were going to miss the concert. But we barely missed part of the first song of the first opening artist. We saw all of the 2nd opening artist and all of Justin. It was...amazing. Ludacris came out and sang baby with him! And his manager Scooter Braun smiled at me when I screamed out his name and another guy from his crew, Ryan Good walked by us during the concert and high fived my sister! We saw a ton of other famous people -- Justin's ex gf Caitlin Beadles, his best friend Ryan Butler (who looked at us twice when we yelled his name!), his body guard Kenny, his photgrapher Alfredo Flores, his guitar player Dan Kanter, Ariana Grande, Cody Simpson, Mike Posner, Nathan from The Wanted, and I'm sure there are others that I can't remember LOL! It was crazy. And he was SO close to us. We were on the floor. Best night ever. Like...I can't even. <3

I don't know if this should go in Good News, Venting or Musing. It's kind of all three, but I guess it's mostly good...

I got a call last night from a number I didn't recognize, which I never pick up. They left a voicemail so I listened right away, and it was a customer from the dog daycare I just left. She owns one of my FAVORITE dogs in the whole world (I love her second dog, too.) The voicemail was basically saying how sad she was that I left, how much the dogs would miss me, and how much she appreciated knowing that I loved her pups just as much as she and her husband do.

I was in tears not even halfway through the message. I actually had to go back and listen to the second half later one because I started crying so immediately that I could barely focus on what she was saying. I can't explain how much it meant to me. On my last day, I bought some tracheas for my 5 favorite dogs, and left notes explaining that it was my final day there and that I'd really miss them. Customers don't have employee phone numbers, so that means that she must have gotten the gift, read the note, and then gone through the trouble of asking for my phone number and then made the effort to get in touch with me to tell me these things. I just... I can't get over it. My poor boyfriend must've thought I was crazy because I couldn't stop crying.

It has been so hard to leave, and then to get that call? I'm so happy and so sad at the same time.
