OMG Wireless!

Quick! Waste no bytes!

Merry Christmas!

I've been in wireless internet hell.

I'm taking this brief opportunity to say that I may not be entirely active online for the next few days, as it would appear as though I'm having some severe issues in keeping a connection.

GACK

Had a blast on Saturday night! It was great meeting all the PDX folk, but unfortunately, I didn't take anywhere NEAR enough pics....

man we've been spoiled so far this season. It's another beautiful day here and it has been for what seems like weeks now. Anita and I are about to take Morgan down to the beach, maybe that spycam will capture our little adventure.

(if you click on that above link on any other day than today, december 17th, you could very well get a completely...

Called the soon to be new landlord yesterday.

The family that is moving out of the suite that I am moving in to have apparently bought a house. The landlord had mentioned that there may be some chance of them leaving the suite before the end of the month.

I am the saver of the tree!

oh wait. I suppose if I really look at this realistically,

falling firmly into the "seemed like a good idea at the time" category:

Leaving a great dane alone in the apartment with a newly decorated christmas tree...

I don't think he MEANT to thrash it... probably just knocked it over somehow, at which point it landed on his bed, so he simply slept on it all afternoon.

Most of the new decorations we bought,...

Didnt' even realize I'd left it, or had it out. Nonetheless, by noon it was reported missing and the cab company called my office to let them know where it was.

It was dark, yet clear, and I could do the...

I mostly go for the underdog.

So in the thick of the fog yesterday afternoon, as we drove out to the treelot, and were drooling over the $65.00 - 90.00 beauties, we stumbled across this poor little corner of "natural fir" they called it.

Couldn't resist. This little 6' beauty was only $12.99, and I felt so sad for it.

Had to bring her home...

Thank you everybody for your thoughts and words. As anonymous as a lot of us are to eachother on here (in the sense that weve never actually met face to face) it still means a lot, and I swear the friendships Ive discovered here surpass some of the friendships Ive had in real and local life in the past when you see the person face...

aw shit.

Just got home from the vet. That tumor in Morgan's mouth probably sprouted up in the last couple of weeks. Apparently they're quite aggressive like that.
It's cancer.

"just make him happy and comfortable".

you always know it's comin, but you can't ever really prepare for it.
The fact that he's a 12 year old Great Dane is already enough of a shocker....
