I brought home a little froggie from PetSmart.

I brought home a little froggie from PetSmart.  I just looked in the tank and could NOT find him.  He's hiding under the moss ball.  TEEEEE.  😃  How fucking CUTE!!!

Drowning Doesn't Look Like Drowning

FYI:  it really doesn't.  When Shadow was about 2 he jumped into the deep end of the pool at our apartment even though I told him to wait a minute for me.  I had my shirt over my head and only heard the splash.  Looked around and didn't see him... and then I did.  He was under the water, not making a sound or waving his arms.  I hit the concrete hard and drug him out of the water by his hair (I can't swim - but the asshats who were with me could, but just stood there watching).  He was fine, but I had nightmares for weeks that I'd lost him to the pool.  Scariest thing that child has ever done to me.  So far.

Ugh. Just woke up from reading a book again...

Ugh.  Just woke up from reading a book again... by fireworks and freaking-out dogs.  🙁  They were all inside, but the pack is abuzz and the nerves are on edge.  Almost had a fight to break up.  I hate the way people celebrate the 4th of July.  This is the city - seems smarter and more considerate to go somewhere NOT SO NEAR other people's houses to blow shit up.  Just saying.

Happy 4th and all that.  I'm ordering pizza and laying low with the dogs.

Got a new polish yesterday from Walgreen's.

Got a new polish yesterday from Walgreen's. It's a Maybelline something or other - one of their denims. I think these are new since I haven't seen them before. Without topcoat it really does resemble denim, but I had to topcoat these because of the stamping. Which, btw, I know that my stamping is not great here. I am wayyy out of practice, and not only that, it was like, 3 am when I was working on these. And, I started doing one thing, then Shaun had a good idea, so I scrapped that and started a few nails over, then didn't like them, and did them over AGAIN. I bet I did each nail twice to get them to even look like they do. It was an ORDEAL. I was so frustrated by the time I was done. LOL I do like how they turned out, though. And I REALLY like that blue color. I might have to snag another bottle of it, just in case.


I think it's awesome that we just melded together...

Shaun, I think it's awesome that we just melded together at some point after we met, but we need to remember a date to celebrate so we can do it like this:

Ice on the ground in July.

Ice on the ground in July.  How crazy.  And all of my dogs came running in, SO BEWILDERED, like, "Mom!  The sky is throwing rocks at us!"  Poor things.  They did not understand the hail.
