Or drop out and sleep in your parents basement forever.

Me so so happy I was able to order the GT/CS certificates today so that'll be a cool keepsake to have with the car

Spanish is so yesterday... you should be thinking Chinese/Asian languages...

GottaHaveIt

But they know that Min will be taken over by the Spanyards before Asia I guess.

cdynaco

I would think it would be the French from the NorthEast before the Spaniards/Mexicans.

Sounds like a plan. Not sure where I'd go though. Maybe in the crawl space.

There's actually quite a few asians and mexicans up here. Go into the city and that's mostly what you'll see.

Had my toe fixed. Horrible experience.

So with all the Asians and Mexicans you'd think you'd have better food there.


Y'all must get the leftover minorities.

So. No more little toes then.

Get it. It's fixed. I thought it was funny.

cdynaco

Interesting. I'm used to seeing many Asians and Mexicans here on the West Coast... but you don't think of them coming en masse to the Midwest.

Hope your toe quits throbbing.

The job interview I went on was all Asian. I think I saw 4 non-Asians the whole time.

There's a lot here, especially hmongs. One family moves here, and the rest follow.

Thanks, it's still numb right now, but it'll probably start hurting soon.

I have to make the decision by tonight whether to bring my dog home and let her die here, or take her in tomorrow and have her put down. Either way she's probably going to die. I just don't like the idea of intentionally killing something. No matter how "humane" it is, I'll still feel like I made the decision to kill my own dog for the rest of my life. I also don't want her to suffer either. I just really don't know what to do. I really don't want to deal with this right now.

I remember hearing a talk show at night years ago with a Vet as guest. She talked about this. She said 'your friend has been with you through good times and bad, they have relied on you through fun times and sick times. It is important to be there as they go to sleep'.

Wow. I'm cryin' as I type this... it was hard and though it was 13 yrs ago the wound is still there and pretty fresh. But there was no question that she was suffering and it was crucial that I be there as she quietly closed her eyes and went to sleep. God I love that dog. Moments like this are very difficult. But I learned through that period of time (lots of other life crap started piling on) that 'stare your fears down, and they wimp away!' And of course reliance on prayer. It actually became a defining moment for the battles that were coming...

Long live Smokie...

One of the dogs here had some sort of kindey failure 3 year ago. She just stopped eating. Thats when my sister knew something was wrong. They tried several different medicines and nothing worked. She could have come home and died, but sometimes it's best to put them down. You get attached to them and it makes it hard when you lose them.

All of our dogs in the past died sudden tragic deaths. There was one who died of a tumor, but I was only 6. I've never been in a situation like this before. I thought my dad's dog would go long before mine.

denlem

I've had the tragedy too. Here is Coco. He loved to lay near the Mustang. Still hard to talk about now, but he was laying in front of it one day back in August and I didn't see him there. Ran right over him. He's a big dog, and how I never felt it i'll never know. I was a mess. Even now when I drive away from anywhere I worry that there may be something around me.

Blue Notch

That is horrible. I'm really sorry to hear about that.

GottaHaveIt

Good Lord I hope your kidding right ? to not feel it does happen though I've seen it I am so sorry for you guys,you need to see a movie " A Boy & His Dog with Don Johnson it it" man's best friend ! after I saw it eons ago I never forgot how they loved each other ! Nice CLEAN car BTW.

denlem

I wish I was kidding, but it was an accident.

I wonder where the car is now and how clean it is?

GottaHaveIt

We're bringing her home tonight, but we'll probably have to say goodbye to her in the morning if she makes it through the night.
