So you know how I was in chat earlier saying I was gonna go to a chili party with my family. Well while we're parking my parents tell me that they put the first dog I ever had down today. Then when we get in the door I break into tears in a room full of strangers, uppity strangers no less. While we're eating my dad tells me all the heartbreaking details. Apparently he had tears streaming down his face as he carried her body to the car, the only other time he's ever cried is when his father died. I'm glad I know but just, ugh. I never even got to rub her little head and tell her what a great dog she was. They buried her in the back yard. I keep looking at pictures of her on my iPhone. Animals dying is super tough. This is the first time I've ever gone through it.
