  1. It appears to be well taken care of Honda. I'm going to argue that I can get 200,000 miles out of it (65,000 more) without an issue. My complaint is that that's a heck of a lot of money for 65000 miles. I don't know how much vans cost though. I told Matt yesterday I'm willing to begin looking because we have the amount saved for the apartment I wanted to have. This is the first one we've looked at.
  2. Yay or nay? Matt and I are in disagreement. Eta: I think it's gorgeous but I don't like the mileage. I've never bought a van before.
  3. I suppose if you're in bad enough shape to confuse yourself with a goat you should probably go do that.
  4. This is Miami. She was dumped on us and we really were not in a position to take a dog in but she was sweet and the pounds were overcrowded and we assumed she would be destroyed if we dropped her off. She would have been happier in a house, but we love her and she loves us so an apartment dog she is.
  5. I have really sad stories about dogs that came to us emotionally damaged from other groomers. Terrified of water or the dryer. One of my favorites was a dog you couldn't muzzle because she was terrified of the muzzle but would bite because she was upset about the water. She was probably washed in water too hot. It gets smells out better. It took me like an hour to bathe her because we were afraid if we didn't comfort her properly she would hurt herself. She was so sweet, just so broken. We had several like that. My boss was a vet tech and loved animals. She taught me a lot.
  6. I'm not doing enough Tai Chi. I'll do more today. I'm signing up for a 1K kids dash through an aquarium with my 3 & 5 year olds.
  7. Oh, and by the way, breeds that made my no list were breeds that were more likely to bite than not. We did unpleasant things at the groomer like trim nails and empty anal glands. Every one of our 30+chows bit, all 7(?) Shar Peis bit, all but about about 10 of our German Shepherds bit... you get the picture. My concern is what happens when a 3 year old does something unpleasant to a dog. Friend wants more kids. Personally, I think he should get a beagle, but that's not his style. :rolleyes:
  8. I agree. There is an issue though when people who should not be breeding are doing it anyway. You wind up with unhealthy or aggressive dogs. It's so sad. Pit Bulls are my all time favorite dog. :)
  9. I was too tired to get into this last night but friend is an ex gang member from LA. Wonderful man, extremely sorry about his past, but still has some of that mentality. So, mean looking dog. He left LA when his 8 year old son covered himself in tattoos with a pen and said he was going to be just like Daddy when he grows up. Matt was one of his first friends after moving to Oregon. I had a dream about organizing. Nesting much? We're going to Babies R Us for the first time this pregnancy to start a registry so we get coupons. I never pay full price for anything. I'm very stubborn in that way. I really want to get accepted to this stupid apartment so we can enroll Mr. John into Martial Arts. He needs something fun to do with kids his age. I just don't want to pick a location until we know where we're living.
  10. I will! I can make any dog do anything. My boss at the grooming shop would only schedule certain dogs when I was in. :D So true! You could just say penis? Does that feel less dirty? Ok seriously, what's the difference between a rooster and a cock? Is it regional? I like them, but there are a lot of bad ones. I need to teach him to test submission. They made it to the maybe list last night. There' a reason for that. They're on the no list. There are a lot of good ones, but with little kids one does not need a animal that might be nasty that was intended to bite little things.
  11. I'm up again. Because husband. Friend wants a mean looking dog and wife says no to pit bull (my first pick). Suggestions? I'm saying English Bulldog or Boxer, no pincher, chow, sharpie (ha!), or anything crossed with a wolf or coyote.
  12. I just spent like an hour folding laundry. I'm exhausted. Josh is here. Goodnight.
  13. I'm kinda gay. When someone starts talking about sexy Hollywood types I think Charlize Theron and Eliza Dushku. I think women are so much better looking than men.
  14. I thought Robert Downy Jr. was the guy from She's All That? I'm so confused. I'm not good at the hot guy game.
  15. The way this kid moves is just bizarre. It's like seizures or break dancing. Neither of my other two moved like this. I could always tell what they were doing and how they were laying. This one has too many limbs, moves too quickly and is up too high.
  16. If anyone cares I'm absolutely not going to finish my reading list this year. That's okay, making the list was fun. Matt talked John into the green/camo backpack with the water bottle pocket. I probably won't order it until next paycheck. Mary's whiney. Off to choich.
  17. But jansport has a lifetime grantee. Why don't you trade it in?
  18. I'm so glad God gave me to a good man. So many women I know are in a bad place because they married a bad man. If my dad had been sober he would have been a great husband but he wasn't and my mom suffered. Everything went downhill from there. Matt doesn't listen and he sucks at cleaning, but he's a good husband and a great father. I do not fear for my future because I have him.
