Life was busy, now its sad. Job security has kinda pushed fun stuff (like this) to the back of my mind. And, everytime I look at my pictures, wondering "hmm, whch one to submit" the look more and more ... not as good as i thought they were. You know? At first, you think "wow, i'm awesome! I took some really great photos! I'm going to post them ALL" and then the next time you see them, "hmm, i missed that flaw, and that one is actually a little fuzzy, etc" I'll try to go back to them, but, seriously, "internment camps"? What possesed me to post those counfounds me....

There will be a few about my dog Ginger. I first got her when I was eleven, and after 14 years, we had to put her down on the 17th. God, I cried so hard!! I keep remembering all these worthless details, like the color of the bandage around the catheter line...what the hell, right? Shit, I'm crying over my keyboard! God that fucking hurt!!! Part of me wants to run out and buy a new dog right NOW, but I'm not stupid. I know that's a bad idea. Here puppy, puppy, puppy.....

Gushing and cooing over my dog's cuteness is very welcome. Even the vet cried. Ginger was a favorite with the nurses, (are they called nurses? helpers? assistants?)
