Spike's Bitches 25 to Life
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I had two goldfish named Sushi and Sashimi.
Mine were betas... I figured if they were clearly identified, I wouldn't be so broken up later. After all, it was right there on the label.
Feel better meara and Cindy. I think I am missing someone else who is sick too. Um, definitely Stephanie who also gets bar-ma (typed bra-ma but it sounds like the BF thing is going fine, so bar~ma it is.)
Slept (or, rather, really didn't) for crap last night but I don't feel especially rotten today. Of course still being in my jammies with coffee helps mightily. I was feeling pre-migrainey last night but I dosed with meds, removed everything with any scent from my room and put my sleeping mask on. Seems to have helped with the oogies if not actually letting me sleep much.
Ever have one of those strange dreams with family and friends in it that seems completely AU when you first wake up (or while you are still dreaming) but then you think about it and realize that, no, those people are just that strange and while their actions weren't exactly taken from real-life their personalities, motivations, charms and flaws were? [Not yet enough coffee obviously to defeat the mighty runonandon sentence.]
I met a guy named "Sir" once. I thought that was super-weird. Apparently his dad was in the military--dunno if that had something to do with it. But--calling your kid "Sir"??
There was an old man in my neighborhood growing up who was known as Sir Hugh (long story) and his St. Bernard was "Wee Pup Excalibur."
I know what I forgot!
connie, all my thoughts and wishes for you and dh. You are both very strong people.
I need to make a list of chores for today, a list of errands and a new grocery list because puppycat shredded it last night.
I sense a meaningless (for you all, I mean) post coming up. After all, if I don't tell the inblisible people, how will I know it really happened?
The daughter of a friend of ours named her child "Princecharming." Yes, it's all one word, and now you're thinking what could be worse? The poor kid's nickname--"Boo."
...I find that I have no words.

You grew up in The Goblin King's Labyrinth? Did you get to play with the fireys? And dance a magic dance?
connie, all my thoughts and wishes for you and dh. You are both very strong people.
We do our damnedest. Thanks.
The poor kid's nickname--"Boo."
Boo's not an uncommon nickname in some places. Southern, I think, mostly. I had a friend in Atlanta who used to always call me that.
But the Princecharming thing?
It seems that every last person in his family has a name that begins with "King" or "Queen" or "Duke" or "Prince" or "Princess."
PLEASE tell me they live in old town Alexandra.
Health vibes to meara and Cindy and whoever else is hurty.
Hi. Healing-ma to the sickies: meara and Cindy 'specially. meara, when my kid was a teenager he had a sore throat so swollen he couldn't swallow water. The doc prescribed steroids, in a descending amount, and told him not to attempt to talk. Since you're already on antibiotics, I'm guessing your doctor's on top of this. But if it doesn't get better soon, I'd either go back or see someone else.
lex-Maidengurl, is a punt dog the same thing as an imitation yapdog? What about a corgi? I don't know anything about them except as wee as they are, they were originally bred to herd cattle. Also, unless the off-leash dog park has a high fence, I'd not recommend slipping the leash on a greyhound; they're not apt to stop once they go. And they'll chase cats or smaller dogs, anything smaller than they, basically, that moves. Friends who have rescues take them out to a farm locally two weekends a month where they have lure chases. It's not frequent enough exercise but it sure makes them happy on the days they get to run.
ION, I'm starving, but I can't think of anything interesting to eat.
Frack. I meant to wish connie and Hubby well--fast healing and general on-your-feet-ma. And also, happy Idol-going.

I'm assuming it's the same thing I call a "drop-kick dog." The little yappers that are just the right size to punt into the next block, and give you ample reason to want to do so.
Most corgis I've come across have seemed too fat and waddly to be much good at herding. They are pretty funny, and seem good natured enough. That might be a good choice.

A friend of mine refers to these as "kick-me" dogs. Not that she'd ever kick them, but the temptation is there.
I'm afraid that that dog I want (Japanese Chin, one of the foundation breeds for the toy spaniels) might fall into the puntable category, but they don't behave like puntable dogs from what I've seen and heard.
