Get a Rott

Ah, I've got my heart set on a Golden. I have met my share of really wonderful Rotties though.

Oh well my apt's small enough with just my big a$$ in it

LMAO! It's OK, I laughed my a$$ off so it ain't here any more. Now, what was that you were going to say?

I try to squeeze 7 years of love into every year, you know, to make up for that 'dog years' thing.

I'll still keep the comment to myself. Go get that dog now that you have room. BTW. . . Greyhounds make great indoor dogs and it would keep up with your running.

Hmmmm... Nope, greyhounds are girly dogs. I need something virile and macho that'll reflect me, haha. At least make me look like a geek nobody wants to screw with.

Hey do you know RikaStrom? Or any other Houston FReepers? When I get down to visit my Large Luscious Cupcake in central Texas area we should find a honky-tonk and have an impromptu FReeper party and get trashed...

Sure don't. We are just organizing a Houston Chapter so I hope to know some of them soon. Holler at us when you make plans and who knows. . . ?

BTW, I lost track of my "Spinal Tap" video. Do you have a copy?

Sorry bud, I'm a cheap bastard, I rent 'em and move on... The only flick I've ever actually gotten around to going out and purchasing was Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Comes in handy for when you have company over. Haha. The last time I was high, I mean mellow, I nearly busted an artery laughing at that damn thing...

That's really cool about that Houston chapter thing. Good luck to y'all, and be sure to ping RikaStrom about it. I guess I should see if VA has any active chapters... If they meet at a bar I'm there...

Here we go:

about two years ago, God sent Lilly into our lives. A month after she came into our lives, my Mother and Father both got sick and moved in with us. It was a very difficult time culminating in the death of my Father. This little angel dog was the only thing that brought us laughter during those terrible months. And to this day, brings me so much happiness, I can cry. I used to laugh at people like the person I've become. But I don't care. I love my dog in ways I can't even describe. And, for the 100th time on FR, here she is:

I used to just think dogs were dogs, too. But then one like your Lilly comes into your life and changes you forever. Cute, cute little Angel you have!

Thank you. She's a joy. The funny part is that I never had a dog in my life. My mother never let us have one and until two years ago, I never wanted one. But when I decided to get one, it was like an obsession. I HAD to have her. That's why I believe God sent her into our lives just when we needed her. Just as a PS, my Mother lives with us now, and she ADORES Lilly. Says she made a mistake all those years by not letting us have animals. Lilly keeps my Mother company all day while I'm away at work.

Imagine, if you let the dog in to sleep with you, there is someone to sleep between the two of you. You can all stay warm and still be mad for a little while. :)

Thank you, now I need a packof6!

It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.

I hope everyone who participated in the "I want a Puppy for Christmas" and the "Tribute to Brunna" threads will stumble across this post which I'm directing to just a few people for brevity's sake.

You may be pleased to learn that I was joined by a new doggie companion yesterday. I found 'Paddy' through a local rescue society website. He's a 7+ month-old Border Collie/Brittany Spaniel X whose history of neglect is now at an end. Already, he has brought a measure of peace and healing to my broken heart.

You will probably never fully appreciate how much all of your interest and understanding helped me in those first painful days. Technochick's Tribute to Brunna has been saved to my hard-drive forever, as well as having been shared with friends and family all around the world.

I wish you all Peace and Joy at Christmas and throughout the New Year.
