• Life according to Fushigi Yuugi…

  February 2, 2012

   I made a strange realization the other day. My life has been sad and awkward for a while now, and I've felt buried and useless, uncomfortable around other people and pathologically distrustful of the world in general. I dislike humanity as a whole and after spending my days trying to avoid ...

• Well, here I am…

  January 31, 2012

  Just another day in paradise. Things have been... well, they've just been. Day by day, and so it goes... I've been reading a lot, I suppose that's something good. Tad Williams and Terry Pratchett have been the authors of choice. Very different styles, but the differences keep it interesting. The ...

• I know you’re there….

  January 24, 2012

    Many times in the months since Chances has been gone, I've felt that he never really left me. It's been over a year since he was diagnosed with hemangiosarcoma and near a year since he passed. I found a couple poems that made me cry, as I was thinking of him.  I stood by…

• *Rant* Overwhelmed.

  July 14, 2011

   I never thought I'd be here again, but here I am.   I live cheek by jowl with despair, hopelessness, frustration. I bed down with loneliness and I wake every morning only to stare depression full in the face. Panic and anxiety hover over my every move.    I ask for help and g...

  March 23, 2011

   I managed to get a couple of not-so-good quality pics of our newest addition, Wash.     Hopefully soon we can get a photo op with him in a Hawaiian shirt and some plastic dinosaurs.... LOL!   -Rebecca

• Lethal white? Nope, just awesome.

  March 22, 2011

   We brought home our new dog on Monday, after a 700 mile round-trip adventure to the soviet block nation of Minnesota.    We have named him Wash, short for Hoban Washburne, the sweet, goofy red-headed pilot in the Sci-fi series "Firefly", by Joss Whedon. He's funny, smart...

• Approved to rescue!

  March 17, 2011

  The house is empty without our Chances Hound. Stella is pining. After some serious soul-searching and looking around online we decided to adopt another Australian Shepherd, since the hole in our house is Aussie-shaped.    We applied for approval with an Aussie rescue. After an extensive...

• Do I Go Home Today?

  March 10, 2011

  (The plight of our country's shelter dogs is compounded not only by irresponsible breeding but also by the plethora of ignorant owners who lack even basic dog training skills and refuse to learn. Sadly, the dogs are the ones who pay the ultimate price for their ignorance. Absolutely heartbreaking...
