Re: I am as excited as
In an ideal world, I'd be able to be as perfect as a dog owner as you are. But I'm not. I'm a real person who has real things going on. Is is practical to go outside with him EVERY time he goes out? For instance, when I'm cooking, or on the phone with someone, or ya know, doing my own business? No. It's just not. And considering I'm planning on selling my house in the next 2 years, I have no intention of putting in a fence.
Like I said, I'm not perfect, but there's something incredibly irritating about your holier than thou attitude when I know I did the best I could with what I had at the time. And like I said, it has been a series of adjustments that we worked through, and it works for us.
I have no idea what that means.
Oh I didn't realize you cook, and talk on the phone. That totally changes the situation. I don't do things like that. I just watch my dogs. All the time.

word on the street is Christin = dramatic.
I am supposed to be at my new house (40 minutes away) in 5 minutes. I don't even have my contacts in yet. Luckily the contractor has a key, so I'm just going to continue taking my time.
I painted one closet on Saturday and I'm still sore as hell. Also I can't remember if I resealed the paint can, or if I just laid the top on it. So I'm expecting to go back to a half-can of dried paint, which will suck.
I got the tronivator on Saturday night, and since then I've been spending bux all willy-nilly on whatever I want. It's nice. What isn't nice is that I'm at the point where new floors cost half a million coins and take over a day to build, and I don't like waiting for the money and then waiting for the construction. I've only gotten to do one challenge because I don't have any of the floor pairs, and I die a little inside every time a new floor is built that's not part of a challenge.
Crap...I Mean Crafts
I got hit on Saturday twice, right in front of Mike. First time we were at the Dayton/Xavier game and this group of recent grads sat next to us. They were drunk. One kid started chatting me up right away. He lives in NYC so when I mentioned I'd be there next week he asked if I wanted to hang out or go to dinner. LOL. no buddy, you're 24. PS, I'm married. Though it was a nice ego boost that these boys thought I was 25. aaw. Mike found it all very amusing.
The second time we were at our local watering hole. It's a restaurant/bar but really more bar at night. However apparently one of the regulars (she's from somewhere in Africa originally) brings her kids there to hang out. So her 6 year old son approached me with a "hey girl, or should I say...cowgirl" (he was wearing a cowboy hat) and made flirty eyes at me. His mom came over and explained that he loves women with long hair and that she should "just accept that my future daughter in law will be white." HA! He was a little charmer and would come over periodically to chat me up. It was pretty amusing.
If the standard for perfection is "does not get lost regularly", I'm pretty sure I'm going to rock it.

This was holier than thou, not what Boxer said. It's awesome that you saved him, but you aren't doing your best. You could have fostered him till he got adopted or found another rescue to take him in, but you chose to keep him. He is now your responsibilty to keep safe and your sucking at it.
I don't have a dog, but I thought it was a given that you go out with the dog, unless you're confident they're secured in your yard.
It is difficult to keep an eye on a toddler, but that's why you child-proof your home: gates on the stairs, locks on cabinets, sharp or heavy objects out of reach, doors locked to rooms that are out-of-bounds. It just takes diligence to stay a step ahead of them, but it's kind of a necessity.
I will also add keeping all important pieces of paper out of their reach unless you want them to rip up a $1000 check you set out to deposit.
For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
Huh?? It is what it is, just stating the facts, m'am.
Please, someone call animal control and come rescue this poor victim. Clearly, he is in need.
Anywho...it works for us.
It was an ice storm, we looked for 2 weeks, the shelter was full, sorry but that's holier than thou. Most people would say I found the dog, I kept him.
It may be working for you, but I don't imagine it works for your neighbors or your dog.
Please, someone call animal control and come rescue this poor victim. Clearly, he is in need . <------ Dramatic much?
But the thing is - it doesn't. He's regularly escaping. That's a problem, and you should be trying to fix it. Not just throwing your hands up, saying he's lucky he's not out on the street, and this is as good as it's going to get.

I'm so happy there was TT discussion in here. I just got the 125 elevator last night, I feel like I won the lottery. If I continue to save like I had saved for that, I'll have the Tronivator in two or three weeks.
Also, I got a bitizen wearing a costume! His name is Ricky MacDonald and he's unemployed. He moved in all by himself, I was so excited whilst giving him that elevator ride, I knew where he was going. It's not the best costume I've seen, but I'm still happy to have it.
I have the $75 elevator and it makes me a little dizzy. I don't want to upgrade.
One time, when Spanky got out, he came back with a tattoo on his arm that said, "Mom" and a heart with an arrow through it. Clearly, we don't have any problems.
The only thing worse than the mommy wars are the animal mommy wars.
I thought Kristen said she got hit twice this weekend and was a little horrified.
SO DID I!

That's what she gets for escaping the invisible fence.
I wanted to chase the golf balls.
Shiit you guys, I'm WHEEZING.
I bet her FUPA's name is Shane, like the gunslinger/drifter of literature.--HappyTummy
You have to watch a dog ALL THE TIME? Well thank god I'll never take on that responsibility. I wouldn't have kept him either so send me to hell.
I don't know what it's like to have a dog but I certainly don't watch my kid all the time he's in my house either. He might get out too.
Getting out once every few months doesn't seem like a huge deal to me, but then again if someone's gross dog bit me or something I'd be suing so I guess I then can see both sides in a way.
