Looky, a happy face at last!

Thanks for the comments Kelsey and Ezel. To be in the big shows on TV the dog usually needs to be a champion already. One of the dogs, Star, is just starting out. They have to be six months to be shown and I think she just passed that age. The other, Abba, has a coat color that's considered "faulty" so it's harder to show her. She's already got quite a few points towards her championship though since everything else about her is correct. Maybe she'll be on TV someday. As far as show dogs, I've been around a few who have been on TV. Before the poms my grandmother did German Shepards, so I've met Dallas (very famous a few years back) and Jimmy Moses (the handler). And my area is terrier, so I have had Allen sit in my lap (he's a Kerry Blue Terrier, his father is Mick who was the first dog to win the triple crown of the dog world).

Thanks for the advice, Ezel. I understand being busy. I'm always busy now and I don't have a paying job nor have I started school again.

Well, a happy face. Happy because no big family Christmas this year. (If this post makes little sense it's because I'm watching the game. My dad is talking about when he met Trent Cole -insert rolling eyes-)

Yes, no big family Christmas though. Fighting started early so we're not going to Florida. I found out I wasn't going to Baltimore the day before I had to leave. Going to Baltimore was apperently separate from Christmas plans. my parents talked for a few days about how they'd get me from Florida wen they weren't going. But, the problem solved itself when they found out I had no ride from the airport. My grandmother decided to show one of the dogs in Philly instead of Baltimore. My cousin got sick. And you can't rent a car from the airport until you're 24. I haven't been to Baltimore in 16 years so I can't exactly rent a cab. I just don't know the area well enough. Not like Philly. It's been a couple years but I have that city memorized. I could catch a train or something if I got stranded.

It's not all good news though. No traveling for Christmas means my aunt, the one with the *u** husband, is coming to my house for the holidays. I really don't want to put up with someone moping around. Remember, this woman is going to want help from my mother...meaning help from me. She doesn't exactly like me but I do have a responciblity to the family.

Honestly though, what am I supposed to do about this? The damage is done. I can't exactly protect my family when the damage as already happened. Well, there is still all the legal stuff to work out but I'm not getting invovled in legalities. My aunt probably considered all this and will end up whining to my mom. My advice to her is to get angry. Really really angry. She needs to slug him. It'll make everyone feel better.

Oh, and news on her huband and his mistress (because I know everything even though they live way up in Maine), he moved out and they're getting a condo together. It's down the street from my aunt. But wait, it gets better! She ditched her two kids to move in with him. They're perfect for each other.

Life used to be so much easier. I don't remember all this drama, let's say, six months-a year ago. It seems like it took a huge jump after I took off five months ago. You leave for four months and things get weird. But hopefully everything will fall back into place soon. Of course, things won't go back completely, but I rather if they don't. Get some growth going on or something.

Such a drama filled post. Um, my sister turned 18 yesterday. We did lunch. No tattoo for her though. She chickened out but not completely. She's going next weekend. Then it'll be two and a half tattooed people. My dad has an Eagles tattoo (he got it when I was away) and my sister wants a flower on her toe and a smily face on her wrist.

I sort of have one but it was accidental. I went to a party when I was out in California that was "thug" themed. So I drew a spade on my stomach/hip with a normal black pen (only place I could really draw something well upside-down). Well, I didn't realise that I carved most of the outline into my skin. I spent the next three days scrubbing that spot really hard thinking I could remove a layer of skin and thus remove the ink. Been a bit over a month and I still have the outline of a partial upside-down heart. I think it'll fade in another month or so.

And I since I'm going to be busy again with upcoming holidays, not to mention all the work I have backed up from my two month leave, who knows the next time I'll post. Good luck to everyone on any upcoming events, getting over illnesses/injuries, and in the holiday season generally.
