Yay! Laura is amazing. (My flying books were done by Olivia, who is also amazing, and I reeeeeeeeeally want some black/white line art from Hira at some point.)
I had a whole section about civic pride.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Thrive to spite them
Today has been a day. I got overheated at work and then after got lost going to Torrid and accidentally spent 2 hours trying on clothes at Torrid.
Last night the cats got out and Penny came back asap but the others were missing. I found and got Duchess back but Scrappy is still out there.
And then we ended up renegotiating the cable and the account is being switched over to me for a better introduction deal. But we didnt eat until 9. I was on the phone for nearly an hour and I just want to stay in bed tomorrow.
Except I'm going to work for 4 hours because of this big CEO visit tomorrow.

Yay! Laura is amazing.
Totally forgot for a minute that this was a tattoo artist's name, and thought you were referencing our Laura. And I didn't disagree, I was just trying to remember what amazing thing we had been discussing recently.
Wait, I got one. She rescued an adolescent Doberman this week; Laura is amazing!

Aww, thanks Epic. The awesomeness of Laura caught my eye too.
Sad news on the dobie front though. Trinity is headed back to the rescue. She really is not a city girl. Her first year and a half have been spent in a very rural environment with large fields to run in and no people or traffic. The rescue where we picked her up was on a dirt road surrounded by orange groves.
DH is heartbroken, but after having her for only a couple days it was clear she was going to take a lot of training, and we just can't do it. He talked to several people who train or just have a lot of experience, and they all said 6 months to a year. Going from the fields to a city with lots of strange people, traffic, bikes, runners, skateboards, etc., was way too much stimulus.
So kinda heartbroken, but better to end it quickly. Rescue dude will find a better fit for her.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sorry to hear that, Laura. Probably best for all of you, but a bummer.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Oh, that sucks.

It does suck. DH is so teary over it. We really thought she was a good fit, but the kitties are quite pleased to have her going back. We'll try again, but probably with the Fort Lauderdale rescue again because more likely to be a city dog.

That's too bad, Laura.

Aw, that's gotta be so hard.

And we are trying another one. A one year old red dobie who is supposed to be good with kids and cats. We shall see.
