Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And I haven't heard back from the therapist I very tentatively contacted over the weekend, which, see above.

Maybe they took the long weekend. At any rate, sleep is good. As is optimism.

So far today:

Wake up with very sore back. Am half hour late for work since I am so slow moving. It hurts when I sit, stand, or walk. Unfortunately, lying down isn't an option at work. I now have a chiro appt. for later today.
Bought milk at cafeteria. Didn't notice that it was past due until I had a mouthful of chunky sour milk. I spit it out and got milk all over me and my cubicle. I suspect that sour milk will be the dominant scent for weeks to come.
Would like a do over please.

We're getting a new addition to the family. A second dog to go with are currently dog Thor (dog of thunder). It's going to be an energetic little Beagle that's going to be named Fenris. The kids are pretty excited and Thor will have somebody to play with outside. I was sort of amazed that there was such slim pickings at the shelter, they were running low on dogs to adopt. We found ours only because he had just been transferred from another shelter and there wasn't time for anyone else to adopt him first.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I wonder if more people are spaying/neutering their doggies? Or was it a random fluctuation in doggie supply?

I dunno, I always think of shelters as not having enough room, but it looked to be about at a quarter capacity and a lot of the dogs there were already adopted and just waiting pick up. This is a no kill shelter as well.

Yay puppy.

I wonder if the rise of more breed specific rescue societies means that unwanted dogs are being directed to more places other than general shelters.

Well, there are still plenty of dogs in shelters, no?

Or maybe people can find the specific breed of doggie they want by searching shelters via the intertubes....

Right - petfinder!

It links up shelters and rescue organizations.

My local SPCA never seems to have more than a handful of dogs for adoption at a time. Cats on the other hand...
