Ohh look a home I can afford to buy.

Our vet suspects that Alice has Cushing's Syndrome/Disease. The good news is that once confirmed, it can be maintained. Our vet also wants to de-bulk Ellie's tumor. While it's not a cure, it will help her get around better so we're considering it.

Found this The Rubber Lovers Contact List - Sorted by Location while searching for Quiksilver jeans. Wow.

Even if you want to, sometimes you just can't go back and right your wrongs.
The first summer I came out as a lesbian, I hung out with these 2 gay guys, going to bars and stuff. I was scared to death, not sure if I understood the culture or even what being gay was all about. One guy had a party at his house (which he had saved for a long-ass time to buy) and my upper-middle class suburban self did not hide my disdain for how run-down it seemed to me or his (kinda scary) neighborhood. Basically, I pissed all over this guy's pride and joy. He never spoke to me again.

I saw him a few years later and tried to apologize, tried to show him that I recognized that I'd been a real shit but his anger towards me was so great that it meant nothing to him and he blew me off.

Serves me right.

I was out walking the dogs, minding my own business, when I noticed my neighbor's dog running loose again (2nd time this week) and into the street. He's very sweet so I coralled him and called animal control, who wasn't on duty yet. I had no choice but to take him to the Humane Society of Santa Clara Valley, where I had to sign something saying that there's no guarantee that he won't be euthanized. What a fabulous start to my day.

And Alice and Ellie are pissed because they had no walk today. Although Ellie kept going after the other dog, armed with her 4 teeth.

Currently chatting with a morgatge specialist from move.com. It's pretty kick-ass.

I'm currently reading Naked and it's fabulous. Last night I was weeping over the part where someone in his family was wiping their ass on the towels. Howling when he mentioned finding corn on those same towels.

There's nothing funnier than a fart.

Does anyone else remember when candy bars cost a quarter? Just mentioning it makes me feel old, or at least like a grown-up.

Looking forward to seeing what Amy's new webcam brings to the world.

Brought both dogs in for the afternoon, but now they're looking at me like the fun's over and it's time to go home. I'll take their word for it and split.

The Onion | TV Listings kick ass!

The Iron Chef is coming to New York!!!!!

"31735041707864" -- Amy.

Why is this not in the US news? Gore stung as tenant calls him 'slum landlord'.

Ever wondered what a model of Gilligan's Island complete with thatched huts would look like? Now you know!

According to the original Hair pages:
"Welcome to the year 2000! The Age of Aquarius is here!"

The other night I saw this fabulous episode of Laverne & Shirley where Carmine, aka the Big Ragu was living in a glamorous apartment (his bed was a board on top of the bathtub, his roommate slept on the couch) and performing in the new musical Hair. The entire cast came over to visit (decked out in full hippie regalia) and sing the opening number with Carmine showing his fabulous chest. It was quite a moment.

Sometimes I love being Catholic (or at least having grown up Catholic): Internet 'Adultery' a Sin.

Last night I rolled my car windows down a little when I parked (I mistook the wafting scent from the dumpster for my car so I figured it needed a breath of fresh air). I forgot, of course, that I had parked next to the sprinkler so when we went to walk the dogs, water was pouring into my car. I valiantly burst forward with my key to roll up the windows, getting drenched in the process. Not 2 seconds after my mission was accomplished did I realize that I could have used the other door, which was away from the sprinklers. Duh is me.

Uhh.... hasn't this been on MTV for a long time already? CBS Brings 'Big Brother' to TV.

What do Bob Vila and father's day have in common? I'm really not sure.

I have to say that the good folks at Gun Dog Supply have actually turned out to give fabulous service, which is always the most important thing for me.

In response to yesterday's declaration that Dan is Hot Shit™, he is creating a Hot Shit™ line of clothing and a soundtrack to celebrate his newly-discovered Hot Shit™ status.

Ellie is famous!!!!

Sometimes I think I'm speaking but the people I'm talking to actually hear me in Swahili. Makes for one hell of a communication problem.

Props for Dan, aka Hot Shit™
A special gift for my good friend, Dan, in honor of his fabulous new job:
I Think I'm Such Hot Shit.

Disclaimer: Dan really is fabulous. Last night he called me and was practically exploding with enthusiasm for his new job (his first real job), so much so that I asked 'did you just call me to tell me that you're hot shit?' In essence, yes, he did, but nobody deserves to think he's Hot Shit™ more than Dan. Why? Because kids were ASSHOLES to him for far longer than it was funny. Because he was my only friend when those same kids were assholes to me. Because he's finally figured out that he's as fabulous as I'd always known he was. And because he finally got new glasses.

Feel free to page Dan and tell him that you think he's HOT SHIT™ too!

This is so sweet, (and a little sad), I'm getting a little teary-eyed. Pooch's plight puts pilot in a pinch. It reaffirms my decision that if we ever travel with Alice on a plane (Ellie would bark the ENTIRE way, so she'd have to stay home) we would put her in one of those hip Sherpa bags and have her under the seat with us.

Am I becoming one of those people who has run out of stuff to say and chooses to just use pictures to express myself?

Another headline that defies comment: Internet 'Slavemaster' Linked to Kansas Murders.

Oops.Atlanta pitcher Rocker sent to minor leagues. That's the price you pay for showing the world that you're a bigot.

How can you resist a face like Gavin Friday's?

I can't stop playing with these t-shirts.

I inadvertently left Eminenya in my Napster directory so I'm proud to report that as of right now, lots of people are playing this new song and saying 'what the fuck?'

I seem to be finding a lot of weird shit on the Web today, including error messages in languages I don't know. What an exciting day!

Tell me that this photo doesn't look like Pres. Clinton is standing in front of It's a Small World.

Life is Fabulous
because if it's not, what's the point?

I was trying to get a new leash for my Dad, we have this really bitchin one for Ellie that has done wonders for her pulling habit, but the only place I could find them online is Gun Dog Supply. I'm just not into the whole hunting thing so I'm kinda creeped out, but they had the lowest price.

I'm just a slave to consumerism.

I eventually found my Kipling bag from the good folks at Parkleigh. I'm still not sure what they sell (aside from Kipling) but they've been very nice.

Living on a Wall of Velcro™
Yesterday Andrea turned the couch cushions up and effectively made a wall of velcro. We spent the rest of the day throwing socks, blankets and pillows up there to see how long they'd hold.
