I’m running out of stock phrases to use as titles for Blog posts. That’s not good!
Here is a run-down of things I’ve accomplished: I’ve finally mailed out some Xmas cards. I’ve purchased presents for friends and family (including one heart stopping trip to Target at lunch today). The box of presents for Indiana is supposed to go out tomorrow (should be there by Tuesday or Wednesday). I forgot a few key items (sorry Indiana!) or else I would have FedExed it out today.
Hmm. It really seemed like I had more done.
Oh, well! In other news, our neighbor’s golden retriever broke loose of its chain (yes, I know) last night. Gene took out the garbage and the next thing I hear is him saying to come there right away. He’s got the dog by the collar and is asking for his shoes and a leash so he can take psycho dog back to the neighbor’s. (This is not an easily moved dog). Gene knocked on the door — pounded on the door — and no one answered. This is a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) and it was at least 10 at night. So we decide to put the dog into our back yard so it can run around until we can get the neighbors over. Gene calls and leaves a message that basically says, Get your dog by tomorrow or we’re calling the ASPCA. (Technically, I would have called a no-kill shelter). By the time I left this AM, the dog was gone.
Fucking idiots. They shouldn’t be allowed to own dogs. Speaking of dogs, I’m going to go let the beagles in.
