I'm glad your kitty is feeling better. It's always a huge relief when that happens, and they are okay.

No, it's not that strange a thing to run through your head. Dogs are all very different in my experience. Some listen to anyone, others listen to only their masters, and yet more listen to no one at all. We raised chihuahua's and rottweiler's and dobermans. (Yeah, I know, quite the mix.) I think dogs are threatened/territorial around their humans when other dogs come near, maybe a protective 'i'll kick your ass' gesture. I have honestly not encountered a lot of dogs who get along with strange ones, there must be something protective. I've never heard the alpha male/female owner theory. Thinking back our own dogs were actually quite protective of us, but since we were on a big ass farm not many people were around anyway. Strangely enough, we never had a single vicious doberman or rottweiller in all the years we bred and raised them. In fact, they would hide from strangers, very very funny. People refused to leave their car when they'd see one of them, meanwhile they were hiding under the porch shivering until they knew the stranger wasn't gonna get them. the chihuahua's were the vicious little buggers. Though, I'm lying, the doberman and rottweiller we kept as pets rather than sold, both owned seperately of each other, only ever went after one person, and it was the same neighbour when he'd stop by. Turned out he was a pedophile amoung other things. The dogs had good taste as far as I'm concerned. Anyway, I digress, and more than likely didn't help at all. Sigh. It's hot here. How about there? <g>

hehehehe........I'm like your friend waiting in lines with the kids for the new Harry book......that'll be me soon! I['ve read all of the books so far four times alone this summer. I wish the release date would hurry up.....

oh....a lake. sigh. i love the water. i wish i had a lake or ocean in my backyard.

Thanks for the hugs. *hug* I hope yer kitty gets better with the pills. DOn't worry, I have a sick kitty too, and he will not use the box if he's sick, but leave me little presents too. Maybe when the pills kick in and Ozzie's feeling better his box will seem more inviting to him. Could be his age though too. *hug* Whenever I leave home for a day or more, my sicky cat, merlyn, barfs EVERYWHERE. It's great. Cats are so talented at revenge.

Be safe, and journey well. You'll do great with that speech there, no problemo. And hopefully you were able to relax a bit too in there somewhere.

And yup, my doctor had a big ego, but I appreciate it. My brother is a doctor, and having been a musician myself, I know with certain occupations that you need it just to survive it and DO it. He was also very very kind though. Thanks for the wishes. I'm alive. <g>

I love emails. I wish I could have seen the bear / eccentric meeting. I'm sure that was a sight.

Hope you're having a great time. TTYS.

It's a free program you can use to chat with people. You create a screen name and then get to make a buddy list. I dunno, it's probably lame that I use it and I'm 30, but it's a great way to get to know some of my favorite members better.

Yes, you should thank me for the weather.

What language sir! Speeches, yack! They are not cool, but nw you don't have to? DUnno how you're currently feeling about this, so I'll just give you a *hug* to cover all possible bases. Best of wishes!

I'm such a stoner. I totally thought I had replied to your last comment in my journal. Now I realize. I'm such a stoner. Wait... did I say that already?

What's a Kananaskis? I could google it, but I'd much rather have an excuse to learn more about you.

Awwww. I don't think words of encouragement really go as far as they are intended to, but just know I'll be thinking about your speech issues and I'll be sending you nothing but the most positive vibes. Do you mind if I ask what the AGM is?

God, I'm a dork.

i hate speeches too. FUCK FUCK FUCK.
they make me sick.
you are not alone.
