So I'm in this weird state of mind. Part of me is dreading the end of may, and all the changes that will bring. Part of me misses Tiffany so much already I just want to cry (and now she's just in the other room asleep, and we'll talk and hug and joke and cry together in the morning, it will be much worse when we're 800 miles apart.)

btw, anyone know anything about getting a good deal on a moving truck and trailer to pull my car? The prices I've seen so far have been astronimical. Uhaul- 700 something bucks.

Today, shaved the dog, which was quite the fiasco. Tiffany held her while I shaved. When we got to her face, she began biting the clipper. So now our little poodle looks an awful lot like a white schnauzer. A white schnauzer with a really bad groomer. I think next week I'll take her to a pro and let them finish the job ( Read more... )
