Oh yes yes yes. That’s the one.

Two things.

What was the US version of the Descent?

I KNOOOOOOW! There is so much drama in that little snippet of life!

Two things.

Just watched this episode last night for about the 20th time. Near the end, when he holds hands with the Doctor and Amy and describes how he sees the wind in the starlight, I just fall to pieces. Every. Single. Time.

I immediately volunteered to walk the dog.

I hate myself for laughing so fucking hard at that comment.

You. Will. LOVE it. I consider myself to be the “cool aunt” of all pets, and there are few experiences better than showing up at a house and being love bombed by the critters I’m sitting. I hope you can make it happen!

A friend of mine had a rescue greyhound that was a leaner. It would take him some time to warm up to new people—the way you knew he had accepted you into his pack was when he’d quietly sidle up to you and lean against you. No jumping or licking—he’d just lean. It was the sweetest, warmest weight you can imagine—gosh,…

Having 2 dogs makes a huge difference! It’s been my experience that isolation is just a bad thing for a dog. With two or more, they can horse around and keep each other company. And they always love being with their humans--I have a number of once-a-year gigs and the dogs always remember me when I come back, even…

I work from home and do the occasional petsitting gig, and it just drives me nuts when the people say “Oh, we leave Spot alone inside all day and he’s fine.” Uh, no. Spot is NOT fine. He may put up with it, but dogs are social and leaving them alone all freakin’ day stresses them. When I petsit, the dog is with me…

You’re right, and I just hate the fact that’s the way things are right now.

No doubt. And that’s just infuriating to me.

That “not all compensation has to be monetary” angle reminds me of a story. I have a number of friends who are artists, and at one time or another they have all been asked to donate their work to charity auctions. The (rich) auction coordinators all say the same thing — “Your payment is exposure. There will be a lot…

Companies really do have the whip hand right now. I wonder when/if it will change.

There’s a flurry of articles out there recently about companies offering promotions without a raise. So more responsibilities, prolly longer hours, but no extra money. Even worse, people are accepting the terms. What the hell is happening to this country?

The liaison also saved Alice from wasting time on a lost cause—the thought of selling ANYTHING makes me want to vomit. Back in the 90s a guy tried to get me to sell Herbalife and I laughed at him so hard I think he needed therapy. It’s incredible to me that MLMs are even legal. They really do prey on the people you…

A while back, my company sent me to Amway HQ to train them on a new software application. While I was aware of Amway as a company, I didn’t know their business model or their tactics (especially about aggressively recruiting minions to build and strengthen their pyramids). I was setting up the computers and a few…

I’m working on a series of supports, exercises, and tinctures aimed at keeping a taut and toned sack.
