So today I was on a mission to take Sir Pugsley G. to PetSmart to just walk around and get him a few treats, while picking up feline pine for the cats.
He does awesome in the store walking around with me and being silly for the strangers. When we were checking out, a female Boston Terrier was too hyper for him and he got scared. Everytime she came near him he'd whine and back up, not even wanting to sniff her or be sniffed by her.
A piss and a dump later, outside the store.
We get into the car and I decide I'll take Sir Puggster to the dog park. After trying to remember exactly how to get to Tom Brown Park and find the right road to turn down. Something told me I would be better off just walking him around in the open field away from the dog park.
Why didn't I listen?
I walk Pugsley toward the park for the smaller dogs and everything was fine, but he was still hesitant to go in. Probably calling him "chicken" wasn't the right coaxing method. He goes in and I try walking him over to a free bench in the park to just chill and see how he'd do with the lil' dogs. He was still trying to run away from the dogs who were approaching him.
So this male Jack Russell Terrier, (if u ask me he was more mutt than jack russ, but besides that) comes up to Pugsley sniffs him and then leaves, then comes charging back barking and trying to nip at my baby! So I rush and pick him up before he's bitten.
The lil' fuckin' dog doesn't stop trying to charge at Pugsley and is practically clawing and jumping up my legs to get my lil' guy, who's a nervous wreck in my arms! I didn't care about the jack russ b/c had we not been in that park and it was some average mutt running loose, I would have already beaten the shit out of it to protect my baby. That may sound cruel but it's my maternal instincts.
In the process of being chased, my Puggers, vomited all over the place. When this bastards owner came over she kept trying to tell me her dog is usually an angel and it must've been b/c pugsley was on a leash that her dog attacked and had I had him off the leash her dog would have been ok with my dog. Yeah, but while saying all that she also mentioned that was just her second time at that dog park. So give me a break, lady!
Had I had Pugsley off the leash and her dog still attacked, I'd be dealing with a vet bill now b/c they couldn't even control the dog by calling for him. So she can kiss my ass! Puggers is now known as a wimp and we'll be keeping him out of the dog parks.
The reason I kept Pugsley on a leash is b/c I know he's hardheaded and doesn't listen when he's gone off too far. People can't just assume that their dog is going to be "ok" with every animal just b/c he appears that way. It just takes a second for an animal to snap! So in my conclusion of this tiny *rant* paragraph, if you can't control your dog by voice command....then more than likely your pooch needs to be on a leash. End rant and ciao!
with a seller on Etsy. I purchased two corsets in January and have yet to receive them. I could understand if the seller had contacted me and told me "hey I tried to send them and they came back" but not even that.
What I keep getting is the run around that they sent it out. I reported the seller and they finally contacted me shortly after being reported but only to tell me the same line again that they were sending it out that following day. That's 68 bucks that has been gone for over 2 months with nothing to show for it!
I doubt I would be likely to do business with this seller again unless it were a small cheap item. This makes me a bit sad. Plus, paypal only allows 45 days for a full refund so who knows how much I'll be able to get back if anything. *le sigh*
Alright, it's time to go get ready for work.
So today, besides being all congested, I had a great day! Right now I'm listening to my new mp3 player and BT's Simply Being Loved is playing and I'm just a bopping and typing. I dunno I just have an inner peace again.
I found my balance again and all is right in the world of Karen.
I just realized out of this paycheck I really did a lot for myself. I got my nails done and bought clothes, a pair of shoes and seasons 3 and 4 of Will & Grace. Normally, I am good and only get one or two things out of a check for myself to enjoy and the rest of the money goes to bills or supplies. The whole getting my nails and eyebrows waxed was a total impulse thing b/c normally I'm cool with the tomboyish thing I got going.
DelorisKaren is on hiatus for right now. I have to wait until the artistic mood hits me and tie myself to my office or guest room with a pen/pencil and pad or paint bush and paints.
I really want to go take a hip hop class and a pole dancing class. I think those classes would be super fun! I already know where I would buy my pole online for the house http://www.lilmynx.com/ isn't that pretty pimp?
I just know often I see myself dancing way better than I actually do in my head, every time I listen to music. Which makes me wonder if I was an awesome dancer in my past life or will I be doing everything I see in my head in reality? Either way its good stuff.
So next month I turn 26 and I still have no idea what to do for my b-day. I might just end up going to Biloxi, Miss. and gamble in one of the casinos. I can totally picture myself pulling the lever down on a slot machine and hitting the big jackpot and watching Med pull me out of the place immediately! He knows I'd spend half of it back in the casino. :o)
Next month I also finally go back to my thyroid specialist and I'm uber excited to be back on meds b/c I'm ready start losing some of this weight. I can lose weight, but like after a couple days the numbers go back up on the scale regardless of what I do. It's discouraging to say the least.
Oh yeah and like this weekend I felt kinda flattered that this gorgeous girl was so taken by how pretty my face is and my cute personality. It was like we both wanted what the other had. I wanted her body and she wanted my confidence.
So yeah....2008 rawks my sox b/c in the past 6 yrs of knowing I had hypothyroidism I have reached acceptance of my sometimes bloated look but know how awesome I will look again with the right hormonal therapy. Having no insurance in America is like the worst thing ever! On that note....I'm out.
(disclaimer: this blog will be in a jumble b/c one, I'm still hungover and two, stuff is still fuzzy and the memories are hitting me when they do. Now we will continue with our regularly scheduled blog.)
was great! Lastnight was KT's bachelorette party and we had the party bus. It was awesome! It looked like a huge tour bus and everytime we stepped out people were looking at us trying to figure out if we were famous or just spoiled brats. Had a couple offers from guys that if we let them strip for us they could ride on the bus with us. We picked three gorgeous looking guys at Tantra, but being the unsatisfied women we are, we found something annoying about them and left them at the bar.
At the beginning of the day I was pissed off with how much I had spent in two days and trying to think about stuff I could return and then I was like screw it, I'll get paid again. Spending over 300 dollars is not good.
Lastnight was kind of a blur of laughter and people busting their asses. I was fashionably late to the bachelorette party and when I got there everyone was already drunk so I polished off a bottle of raspberry verdi by myself, in about 30mins. Half the girls I knew and the other half I didn't but you know how most folks are happy drunks and blurt out their "I LOVE U's" to any and everyone. I know I was doing it!
Haha, now that I think about it, I kissed random folks lastnight and I'm just now getting Med's cold. So obviously I spread it around Tallahassee alil bit more. Oh it wasn't like french kissing but I did pop kisses.
Here's a pic I love that I ganked from KT's myspace of me, KT and Corie.
Here's some other photo's from the night b/c I lost my train of thought and I should probably be laying down again. I feel like I might puke. :o/
Well apparently Alchemy is back on Etsy. I was curious to see how the format was ran so I went rummaging around in it. I found three interesting posts that instantly gave me an image in my head of how it should look and be.
Ok, for those who don't know what Alchemy means on Etsy. Alchemy is basically a platform where members can make requests for certain items to be made and sellers who think they are capable of getting the deed done offer a bid to the requester. The person requesting can either accept or deny the bids.
So anywho. I was trolling around in there and came across one asking for a 5x7 of the Garth (Dana Carvey) character in Waynes World. I was going to do a realistic portrait of him when I realized I would much rather do a cartoony approach. Here is what it looks like so far. I still have to work on getting the mouth the way I want it.
Well for SPT I decided to post the drawing and a pic of me after I got my extensions. Here it is...
side note: Ok, painting was a lie, b/c I didn't even like painting when I was younger but now I have found a new love for it. Just thought I ought to put that out there. Moving on......
Etsy can be intimidating sometimes and makes me feel like I should be ponied up to a sewing machine or a soldering iron. True enough I could teach myself all that stuff but that's not where my heart lies.
Confession: I can never stay focused long enough on most projects to complete them. It's like my mind is always on overload/overwhelmed mode. I will get between 80 to 90 percent done then move on b/c I had another GREAT brainstorm! :o/
Like for instance I have a few paintings now just sitting in my guestroom that probably only need an hour or two's work on them and then they are complete and ready to put up for sale/display. I think working at night and sleeping most of the day has killed my motivation. Here are some of the pieces that need a facelift.
I was driving to work and got on I-10 East only to be stopped less than a mile from the exit I just left.
Then come the sirens and the numerous police cars and ambulances.
Then comes the 2 and half hour wait as the cops clean up the scene of a ten car accident.
I wanted so badly to fall asleep while waiting, but I was too paranoid thinking as soon as I get into a good slumber I'll hear cars honking at me to move out of the way! Plus, I was worried that I'd get a ticket. So I tortured myself to stay awake while Med sat in the passenger side snoring my ear off.
When I got to the point of where I wanted to strangle Med for his snoring, I left the car and walked toward the accident. I didn't see anything but then again I didn't walk all the way to the actual accident site. However, I had walked far enough that on my way back to the car I couldn't find where I parked. :o/
So like I said, 2 and half hrs go by and we're finally able to move on and go to work.
I get to work and I am no good at all. I kept falling asleep at my pc and typing in the wrong information. My "Backspace" key probably LOVED me tonight! Oh yeah and obviously I'm still sleepy and sarcastic.
On our way home from work traffic is brought to a crawl, yet again, but not b/c of an accident, but b/c they closed off the roads to do road work.
I looked over at Med and told him, "It's a good thing I don't have explosive diarrhea b/c I would've already messed all over your leather seats!"
LoL I am sure you can imagine his facial expression and I don't really know what made me say it.
Alright, time to go pop in my second season of Will & Grace on dvd. I just love Karen and Jack :o)
I'll be honest, I only joined vox to be able to comment on one person's blog. I know I will probably abandon this blog b/c I get into way too many projects and desert one for the other.
Yeah, I suck but I'm human. My day doesn't revolve around trying to please others. It took me awhile to even get to that point in my life to realize what other people think or say doesn't even matter and they are usually more screwed up then you are. All you can do is accept them and move on from there.
Hmmz....ok I'm being my famously random self.
Ciao.
