I couldn't agree more, but the hardest walls to scramble over are the ones I build. Too lazy to face the arrow sting arguments and general displeasure cannonballs, and the sighs of discontent spears in my side, without my headphone armor, tired sabatons and work excuse sword.
But still, it ain't as bad as all that. Just a whiner. Or a weiner. Or a weimaraner. One of those.
Did you and the kidlets ever read The Hallo-Wiener (http://www.amazon.com/Hallo-wiener-Dav-Pilkey/dp/0439079462/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1269996237&sr=1-1) by Dav Pilkey? It's such a great book. If not, you should.
My promises tend to get broken, and my threats ring empty, so it is a...better than worse than awful possibility. Moderately neato, not unwell in its prospects. Or rather, a wiener, avec Maille and Pinot Grigio.
William Wegman, Man Ray, Faye Ray and various other pack members - something about him and his dogs, they love posing for him. There's books of his photographs; I've got one right here that he shot of a litter Faye had, from when they were newborns, with his own comments of what the puppies taught him as well.
We had two Weimies when I was pretty much school-aged. Athena could have been Faye's sister, she was so photogenic. For all their fighting, she was heartbroken when her sister Gretchen had to be put down (due to complications from an injury) years before a natural end and her personality changed drastically.
... *sheepish* sorry, it was a bad joke. We = Livejournal. Friend of mine made that joke when asked "what have I missed lately?" a few days after this season's LOST premiere, and I thought it was hilarious.
Hahaha. That's what I get for being awake in Las Vegas this morning before 6am and not having stayed up all night losing the nest egg.
Speaking of two timelines, I actually did get to watch Lost while I was on vacation. We made a special point of staying in on Tuesday night just to see it.
