Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We were originally going to daytrip a local con, but when we checked the website yesterday to see the schedule, we found out it had been cancelled.

Instead, we took Mr. S to the zoo. Got to see pandas, cheetahs and a few other animals.

(The car window went up all the way when we tried it this morning.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

someone just hit on me in Target. It is unsettling to me for a stranger to come up and start talking to me when I've come to accept that I am generally invisible in public. I mean sure my hair isn't, but a passing hair comment is not walking directly up to me TWICE and starting a convo and offering his number. AND I WAS NOT RUDE. Although I did ask him if he often just talked to strangers in stores because it was weird.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did he seem reasonable?

talking to strangers in Target aside from a shared experience of inconvenience, fear, or someone needing assistance is not reasonable.

I was not afraid of him, he did not seem off. I talked with him, shook his hand, told him my first name.

That was very brave.

Our wings are not tired.

I've talked with people in stores pretty frequently. I'm apparently approachable, probably because I smile at strangers. DH is worse because he is such an extrovert he just talks to everyone everywhere! Not in a flirtatious way, but is just super friendly.

So, I am getting another dobie from a Florida rescue. It will be my third doberman so I told DH I want to name her Trinity. First because she is the third, but also because she will surely be a kickass bitch! She is only 2 so it will be good for upping our walking levels, which we both need.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I look forward to meeting Trinity (even in photo form!)

She is living in Lake Placid FL right now so we are headed out shortly to pick her up. It is 3 hours away. The rescue approved us remotely because we already had been approved when we got Zoe about 7 years ago from the Fort Lauderdale dobie rescue. That and they checked out her FB page and knew Zoe was well loved and that this would be a good home.
