Stuck in the mud in my driveway. 🙁

I've gotta get to bed.
I've gotta get to bed. I need to wake up early to get Maya and get her to the spay / neuter transport tomorrow. I also have a million things to do at work so it would be great if I got in a little extra early.
Anyway, here's a funny thing that might be worth sharing: When I was out last night this old man came over and said that he loves my shell. He said it was really cool and that it reminded him of something he'd seen while tripping on LSD in the 70's. Then he assured me that that was a compliment. As if that could be taken any other way. 😂

Gotta give a big, fat "THANK YOU!"...
Gotta give a big, fat "THANK YOU!" to my mom who built me a larger place for Pomona plus made two cute ass beardie beds, AND is watching Maya for me until I can get her to the clinic in the morning. All in one day. Super Meta to the rescue! 🙂
"How are you feeling, Blu?"
"How are you feeling, Blu?" Pretty good right now!
Well, though yesterday started out sucky it got better. I did some things around the house that needed doing so I felt better. Then me and Shaun went out for dinner last night with a group of friends and it was GREAT. Can't go wrong with Baja or this crowd. 🙂 THEN we hung out even later because we were just having too much fun to call it a night.
Since Shadow stayed with a friend last night I crashed at Shaun's place. Haven't done that in a while. I always sleep really good there - probably because I'm not listening out for what's going on with my ani-pals. And because he's got the windows blacked out in his room so I don't get woken up by the sun. I just sleep until I'm rested and it is good.
So I came home about an hour ago. Everyone's doing ok. Out of 7 dogs only 1 couldn't hold it and peed in the floor. I'd say that's pretty good. 😃 My dogs rock. You don't even know.
Best part yet - I checked my email and it sounds like Maya baby is gonna have a home later this month. I AM SO EXCITED! 😃

"How are you doing, Blu?"
What a fucking day!
What a fucking day! And I hadn't even planned to be awake yet! 😳
A stray dog on a chain came around because Maya was in heat. Shaun's neighbor lady got the dog by the chain and had him tied to her tree so that Maya could get away from him. But we had to get him off her tree and tie him to Shaun's for a while. She had company coming over and couldn't handle him. Shaun called me at like 8 this morning for me to come and get Maya. She is now in Munford at my mom's until her spay on Monday.
We looked around the neighborhood for the owner of the dog, but couldn't find anyone. It was a husky looking dog dragging a LONG ass chain. He did not seem well-socialized at all. But if he lives on a chain - go figure, right? Shaun called Animal Control because what else do you do? He would at least be held for 7 days for someone to claim him.
I gave him food and water while we had him tied up. I got close to him, but I didn't make eye contact, come at him straight on, or move suddenly. Shaun gave him a bone and then was re-filling the dog's water later when he said he started seeming all friendly. That's when Shaun tried to pet him and got bitten. I wasn't there. I was driving Maya around at that time.
After he was bitten, but before Animal Control showed up the owner came and got him. Turns out that Mr. Bitey Dog is named Soldier. The owner SAID he had his shots, but who really knows. I think Shaun should get a shot anyway. He's always getting bitten by dogs lately. 😳
It's been a fiasco.
Blegh. Boo for dog stuff that is hard. I miss the days of throwing everyone together in the dog room and having it work out. 🙁
