The Venting Thread

Can you head to a hotel with the doggies for a few days until it gets fixed?

You may already be doing this, but make sure you're only opening your house up overnight and then shutting it and closing blinds before the heat of the day hits. I grew up without AC and that worked amazingly well. In the desert it gets much cooler overnight, too, from what I've heard.

It can get cooler at night most of the year, but right now it's staying around 90 overnight outside since it's so hot. We rarely have breezes due to the mountains.

I think we're going to have to go on a quest for a new unit. The broken one is about 5 years old, so I fear fixing it would cost close to the price of a new one

ETA: we do have bedroom units, so the dogs and kiddo have stayed comfy

From July 3rd to July 8th, I'm working 58 hours. Which is fine.

My vent is that those hours are split up between two jobs, and between two work weeks at one of those jobs, so I don't get overtime : And my next day off isn't until a week from Sunday, and my last day off was a week ago Sunday.

This day went by too fast! How is it already 10:30?? I feel like I'm just sitting down for the first time today, and I should be going to bed like... now.

Also I packed a horrible lunch for tomorrow, right now I don't even care but I'm sure tomorrow when lunchtime rolls around and I'm hungry, I'll be super upset I didn't pack real food. I think I threw in Poptarts, yogurt, Doritos, and some blackberries. I was just too lazy to put in any more effort.

I had to pull cat poop from Shamoos throat tonight. I was a good distance from home, on our walk, and kept feeling/smelling (psychological) cat poop everywhere on the way home.

**** dog.

So much want.

Double masked red with erect ears. Le sigh.

Do it, Meagan.

Super freaking tired. I just can't seem to sleep well the past couple of weeks.

Juleee. You are no help! PS, so sorry this week has been super hectic! I should have your sig done by tomorrow!

No worries! I really appreciate you doing it, don't stress!

I just want to cry. My dog is broken (whether that's physically or mentally we will find out next Thursday) but he has now snapped, snarled, growled at or attempted to bite 4 people in the ten days that we've returned home from leaving him with my parents for 10 days. Totally out of character for him and I don't know what to do or think. We noticed an ever so slight periodic limp upon his return and he has an appointment with a sports med/rehab vet next week.

I'd like to know if he's in pain or it's just me who makes dogs mean 4 of the last 5 dogs I've had before Crossbone have had issues with people and 5 out of 5 couldn't do agility or sports of any kind. I guess I'll go for 5/6 and 6/6 :'(

Oh. My. God.

I have not had "me" time for an entire week. I have had people in my home that I don't want here, or being somewhere else with no place to "get away". I can't even "get away" in my own freaking home because it is jammed back with so many THINGS (currently both people and animals).

I cannot take it. I am going to scream, or break down into tears. I am in such a pissy, bitchy, horrible mood.

I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO FREAKING GO AWAY AND LET ME RELAX.

I NEED TO BE A HERMIT, GOD DAMMIT.

My routine is shot all to hell, I can't do what I want to do and have to bow to what other people want, I have to put up with other people's ****...

I AM OVER IT. GOD DAMMIT.

I'm going to go lock myself in the bedroom now and stress cry until I fall asleep.

Oh no! That's so out of character for the boy - he's gotta be sore or something. Maybe something simple like a muscle strain - pain in the butt to deal with but totally healable. In the meantime, might you be able to try something like Traumeel to see if it's pain related? Or even have the vet prescribe a med until the appt? Thinking of you guys!

Aww, hon, I don't think it's you... it sounds like maybe something happened at your parent's house and he got a bit hurt? Don't write him off just yet, I know it's hard, but wait until his vet appointment and see what's going on. If he's limping suddenly it really sounds like it could be pain related. ((((((HUGS)))))))

Got a 300mm lens.

Can't set the iso to 1600 permanently. Always resets to 100-400 when I restart the camera. Unless its very bright, I'd rather not hunt through the menu.

My sister unplugged my modem and now I can't get my Internet to work. I'm very frustrated but more frustrated that I'm mad at her when I know she didn't mean to break it but arghhhh.

That so does not seem like Crossbone at all. Don't blame this on yourself. It's not your fault!

Vibes for Adrianne and her family.

It was Adrianne? Holy ****.

So many hugs coming your way guys.

Lots and lots of vibes. I can't even begin to imagine what they're going through, I've never met any of them and I'm in tears.

I've seen something on Facebook about Adrianne, Backup and Arnold. I don't have a clue whats going on, but I'm keeping her in my thoughts x
