picked up the dog from the groomer, and I swear it happens every time we bring her home from there without fail...as soon as we walk in the house she runs straight to the back door to go out, presumably to pee, but also to immediately roll around in the grass, which is dried out, and it ends up all over her groomed self.
what a goof.

Talked to the librarians again. It was much more comfortable this year. Different tone. Felt more laid back. I liked it.

Just took my dog for annual check up, shots, bloodwork, etc. $400. This dog needs to get a job.
our dog turns 16 in may..we've had him since he was 5..great dog and love him to death..he's pretty much a leased BMW payment every month

Mine is 15 now, and the medication costs are rising rapidly. He's not very appreciative.

after the vet appointment we stopped and had a drink and an order of fries..some lady came and sat down next to us and gave us her life story in about 25 minutes..I bought her drinks as she told us about her 2 boys that will never give her grand children..

we had the drinks and fries at the local golf course and sat outside on the patio since our dog was with us..The local high school girls golf team was there practicing on the 1st tee..it was ugly...I give them an A for effort though..
