crap. I think Shasta is starting to get another UTI. Been a year since the first one she got but she's licking herself again and she never does that. At this rate between my dentist appointments and vet bills for Riley and now Shasta.... I may never get my care credit card paid off!!!

I'm brutal about it sometimes. Just like there's people who think english bulldogs are adorable. I don't even think the puppies are cute!!! I will never understand the so ugly its cute thing. Like I love my kids to death. My daughter was adorable instantly. My son was adorable instantly but had these big ears!!! He'll be 4 in June. He's grown into his ears.

And I REALLY don't understand people who constantly fawn over new babies. I'm like "yeah.... I did that with my kids. I'm not doing it with yours". I'll stick to fawning over animals. I don't tend to like other peoples kids. I get that from my mom. My husband on the other hand is the freaking baby whisperer. Our friends have babies and he's all gaga over them. I tell him he's crazy. I'm good with babies but I don't beg to hold them or get all mushy over them. Show me a puppy or a kitten and I get mushy but babies wait until you think you're safe and then they barf on you, scream until you wish you were deaf, or fill their diaper with something so foul, it would knock out an elephant. (Can you tell I can't wait until my son is potty trained? lol). I love my kids. Even when they drive me absolutely batty. My husband can be the one who is all for babies. Haha, I wasn't socialized properly lol.

I completely agree with this. My cousin had the Seinfeld baby. You know that couple in Seinfeld with the ridiculously ugly baby and everytime Jerry, Elaine, Kramer, etc look at the baby they have this reaction of pure disgust? My cousin spawned this baby. And she posts pictures of it all over facebook, and people comment on how 'beautiful' she is. No, this baby looks like a drooling old man mobster and every time I see her all I can think of is how she looks like she should be sitting at a poker table with a cigar in her mouth talking about her next hit. I had to take my cousin off of my feed list because I'd get these gigantic close-ups of this baby jumping out of my screen and it terrified me.

I'd say most babies are pretty ugly, some are cute, but this one is definitely the ugliest I've ever seen. I hope if I ever have an ugly baby I won't be so clouded by motherly-goodness feelings that I won't be able to identify my baby as ugly, because I think it would be pretty funny to have an ugly baby and actually acknowledge that you know it's ugly to other people.

Ughhhhh I hate care credit!!!(I mean, obviously I love it and it's a life saver lol) I took out a card when Remy got parvo, and our insurance only covered not even half of the cost :-/ .. I still haven't paid it off completely. What a beating.

Lmao yes I know that episode from Seinfeld hahaha Elaine, you gotta have a baby! And then the other woman had a hideous baby.

And yes English bulldogs are horrible looking and they sound like pigs, if you want a pig why not just buy a piglet, much cheaper I met two English bulldogs in my life and both were just idk they just looks soo unnatural and seems like they are uncomfortable... They shouldn't be bred for theirs sake. I don't like any dog with that sort of face like pug or bulldog just not pretty at all, now if say this dog needed a home I would take it if noone else would.. Idk how to explain it lol

Well, this is nice. A truck has backed into a gas manifold and now its spewing gas and roaring and there's still a running truck up there. Everyone has been evacuated and now just waiting. Not to mention its snowing...not the best day I've had at work.

How many strikes does a bank you've been doing business with for 25 years get?

1) My son's checking account had bogus charges. When he went to the bank, per direction from the head bank, he was met with an obnoxious woman who demanded to know why I was on his account and who refused to help him get copies of the charges.
2) My husband goes in Saturday to deposit a jointly issued check for $30 lousy dollars into a joint savings account only to be told that he couldn't do that because both of us had to be there. This was NOT a tax refund which I know does that policy.
3) I go in today to deposit cash, already having an attitude over Saturdays incident, and the woman asked me for my SS#. When I asked why, her response was because she'd "never seen me before". ok...this is a lousy $100 deposit and the account is 25 years old. I wrote my SS# down and handed it to her. I did get a bit snippy because depositing money in our account should not be this hard and the idea that "she'd never seen me before" was a legitimate reason to ask me for my SS#. To which she said "you don't need to be rude" I"m not sure that is the proper way to defuse an already obviously irritated customer. I know it only made me more irritated. She then TOLD me she was going to need my drivers license because it wasn't on file to which I replied that I would call the head bank to discuss these things and I was not being rude at that time. And again, she says to me "You don't have to be so rude".

Ya know...I can go right down the road to your competitor and it won't be such a hassle to deposit small amounts of money in our bank accounts. The head bank wasn't to happy about any of this. I bet she calls me more than just rude before the day is over.

I think everything from last week is finally catching up with me now that Baxter is showing real signs of improvement, I have my car back, and that awful headache seems to be totally gone. Now I'm just wiped out. I need a day to just..sleep. Relax. Have no responsibilities. I had Monday off, but I spent most of it harassing the clinic for Baxter's results, running errands, making plans that ended up falling through, blahblahblah.

I knew it was a bad sign when I was really dragging through my workout, ended up falling asleep for another 15 minutes afterwards, and am now dealing with the afternoon energy crash.

At least there are only two days left, and they should (theoretically) be a bit calmer than yesterday and today have been. The only problem with that is that Baxter has decided that 7am is a good time to wake up on the weekends. He used to go to 8am without a problem, but apparently that's too late for his fussy little diva self.
