Stupid people

I know...my posts have been a bit like complaints lately but this IS zoo related!

Got a call this morning...you know, SUNDAY morning at 7:30...."Christine, it's Bill Brush, I adopted Roy from you. I am done with him, I don't want him anymore. I signed a contract saying I would bring him back to you and I am coming out that way today for a hockey game. Can I bring him today? We are getting ready to leave now. He has been peeing on the floor" Me-- "Did you do do a urine test?" Him--"I did every test you said we needed to do, even a stool check"....HUH? A stool check always tells us if a dog has a UTI so THAT makes PERFECT sense! He claims the vet advised them to take food AND water away at SEVEN in the evening. Whatever....any half-way intelligent vet would say that if a perfectly trained dog starts peeing on the floor that a urine test should be done. He apologized for "doing this, this close to the holiday"....I said it was no problem that he probably just had an infection and would be fine. To which he replied "I had him to the vet and had every test known to man done"....OK idiot bring him back to me now before I have to hunt you down and have ROB beat your face in! UGH!

So yes, Sunday, four days before Christmas...one day prior to starting my job....I am getting a bounce AND a Beagle from another foster home who is going out of town for the holiday. That will bring me up to FOUR foster dogs! The good news is, Rob will probably kill me and end my suffering very soon!

Job

So today I was official hired at Robinson! And about that marriage thing...don't do it! Not because it will protect from any pain but it is a waste of time and money!...I may be getting a divorce because I kind of hate Rob right now. LOL He wanted me to get a job....I wanted me to get a job but as soon as I got a job he turned into a madman! UGH! Too bad we cannot enjoy the good news like normal people! :o(

THIS IS TRUE....

If you get an email stating "THIS IS TRUE"....most likely it isn't. You know that whole, "He who excuses accuses" saying....yeah, it kind of applies here.....like "TRUST ME"....if curiosity gets the better of you and you would like to know if, in fact, it is true.... go to www.snopes.com and type in whatever it is in the search box. The name of the supposed "missing child" or the "sick baby who gets 2 cents with every foward".

I used to forward that stuff too...but now, I go to snopes and check it out before I forward that stuff. You should do it too! :o)

Marriage

So lately I have been reading about/talking to people that do not want to get married because of their parents or whoever having a bad marriage experience.

And I just don't get it....the problem with failed marriages isn't the marriage...it is the heart ache that comes when it fails. The only way to prevent that is to not ever get close to anyone. The downside to that is...never getting close to anyone. That saying, "It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all" comes to mind. I have loved other people but clearly the love of my life is Rob and though I have not lost him....I still think it was worth the risk and if I had said no to him when he proposed and we continued the way we were and one day he decided to be a jerk-face (this has happened actually. LOL), I don't think it would have hurt any less.

People are the problem...not marriage.

I am just saying----cuz I can.
