I thought it funny at the time. She still doesn't. Oh well.

Hmm... we still need a ceremony venue. Since we're already legally married it doesn't matter if we're using a legally ordained officiant or not, but Jereme wants it to be a "real" ceremony. Conversely, he's also against any sort of religious ceremony. So... I don't really know what to do. We could do it outdoors somewhere but I'm nervous about weather (if those April Showers run late). Hmph.

That sucks, there's a really bad influenza going around in several areas. Highly contagious and lasts 10-14 days. Hope you can rest and feel better soon

Just got invited to a HUGE event (3000+ people) at our local hockey stadium for a game night for fans to bring their dogs with to the game (not sure how good of an idea THAT was...) to vend my collar/tag business... I'm STOKED to have been invited and sell so many collars, but dreading all the work leading up to it. This is by far the biggest event I'll have ever attended. :/

I miss my best friend. I wish she was still my best friend sometimes.

After all, this must be financially irresponsible of me - three years ago I couldn't afford internet! Oh. Wait. Three years ago? Sam was at a crappy job with awful pay after being unemployed for half a year, leaving me to cover all of the bills. Three years ago? We had just bought a house and were recovering from the initial expenses (closing costs, inspection fees, blahblahblah). Now? Sam has a better income. I have a better income. I do ONE THING for my own personal enjoyment, and I carefully plan and budget for it. But somehow...this is her concern.

Evan, put your biggest smile on. Walk right up to her and tell her you put a second mortgage on the house and are renting it out to afford your riding lessons but that's ok because the barn owners gave you blankets and the hay is really comfy to sleep in. Then...ask for $20 for beer.

and then go enjoy your riding lesson knowing she's stewing....

HA! I should do that.

I just find it hilarious that I'm being judged for frivolous spending when she smoked for YEARS when she claimed she couldn't afford anything. Last time I checked, that's not exactly cheap. But, to be fair, she has quit.

Boy is she going to be mad when she finds out we're getting another vicious, menace to society GSD.

Your sister is not a person that could survive with me and my siblings. She might as well wear a sign on her head that says "Mess with me. It's fun and easy"

It's so sad that a person has to make everyone around them miserable to make themselves feel better.
