I love that Batman's dog wears a mask. Just so no one recognizes it. Because those average-size brown medium-hair dogs are really distinctive.

It's so people involved in dog-fighting don't steal it.

"Hey, how about that one?"

"See that mask? That's Batman's dog."

"Wow, imagine how much ass it'd kick in a dog fight."

"Dude. It's Batman's dog."

Amyth, I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope things are better than they appear right now.

Oh amyth, I am holding you and your family in my thoughts today. Sending ~ma that your brother has a swift and strong recovery.

And Cash, I will also be thinking of your sister, and hoping for good news soon!

I hope you find something you like better soon, Zenkitty.

All kinds of ~ma for your brother, amyth, and for your sister, Cash.

In other news, I had a Sox at my house for two hours just now and it was Made of Awesome. You should all be very very jealous.

Amyth, you and your family are in my thoughts.

Brenda - call or write pizza ordering person and ask if they have ordered enough for all who responded.

Zenkitty - from my own experience, if you can get out and find a job that fills your needs, run. Run fast. My old job had me crying way too often. I am in love with my new job. I feel so much more human now.

Cash - much baby~ma to your sister.

Just talked with KCD about kid stuff, then he asked me, very seriously, "So, how are you doing"? Eh? Happier cause I don't live with you anymore but I'm kinda lonely and would love some male company? Nope, not going there.

6. Comet: Supergirl’s horse and boyfriend.

I guess that I'm not the only one who went to a Catherine the Great place?

Sounds like SUPERGIRL went to a Catherine the Great place.

He's a horse, AND a boyfriend, AND a freaking centaur! Catherine wished she had it that great!

Thanks for the good words, y'all. I just talked to my boss, and after she told me I was making a lot of mistakes lately (I AM NOT) I, um, vented at her a little and she backed off (because she hates confrontation even more than I do) and she offered some helpful suggestions (the best of which was "get someone else to do it"), so I've calmed down a bit today. But I know it isn't going to get any better. I should be looking for another job; I shouldn't convince myself before I even try that nothing could be better. I'm just so tired of it; I can't even think about putting together my resume again, after 11 years, without wanting to, well, cry. I've got to either find a way to deal or find a way out.

And because it deserves a post separate from my whining, amyth, all kinds of ~ma to your brother, and you, and the whole family.
