I love the usual wheaten color of a ridgeback, but the black wheaten is lovely.

Kuma attacked Bear again two days ago. I'm so tired of this behavior and I don't know what to do. His meds have gotten his thyroid normal now. I'm just at a loss.

I wish I could find someone to foster him for a year or two. Or just to take him.

WRT your idea, sumi, I don't know, but we did discuss that exact idea here a few weeks ago, didn't we?

Art Crawl!!!

I can't remember if we did. It's possible. Was it about a tv show -- or something from real life?

I'm so sorry that Kuma is being a shithead. Perhaps now that his thyroid levels are normal -- some sort of training might have a greater effect on his behavior?

Oh, Kat. Bear ok?

What does the vet say?

What is even happening?

Oh Kat, that's so hard. I'm so sorry.

Ack. I have to get myself in motion. Mornings fly by, some days. Hec, if you pop in, insent from my less reliable email address.

Bahahaha!

Sigh. He was impossible to train as a pup and it has gotten worse now. The attack was more sturm und drang than actual attack leading to blood, but Bear is still freaked out.

I think another option is to get a dog run for him and put him in it when we are gone. We have enough land to do that.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

10 days sick leave, which is pretty standard

Really? We get 5.

Still, though, I see "menstrual leave" as just another way to excuse women from getting promotions. She can't work 2 days per month? Well, then she's not available as we need her for that position. Give it to Bob.

Wow, that's crappy. We get 18 sick days, and 15 vacation days starting out. (I'm up to 20 vacation days now.) And there's short term and long term disability benefits if you are really sick.

Yeah, but you live in - wait for it - Soviet Canuckistan. Actually I get a lot of sick leave too.

Sue, I saw a woman wearing leg warmers yesterday (with FLIP FLOPS) and thought of you!

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

We get 10 sick days per year and vacation is accrued. We get up to 10 days vacation but you have to earn it first. I get 6.25 hours of vacation per month, if you want it broken down.
