It’s definitely summer time, and I have noticed that when we go for a walk, my Pomeranian is panting a lot. I’m sure it must be tough with so much hair! She was in desperate need of a groomer’s attention anyway, so I decided to take her in and have her shaved. For some pom owners, this is a very controversial issue. They believe that Pomeranians are supposed to have long flowing hair and that if you shave it even once, you are ruining it. My personal feelings? She looks cute as hell. She is very happy with her new…

My brother is (hopefully) on his way already from Georgia, and we are all going to see Dave Matthews tonight. Originally, he was supposed to come with his wife and best friend, and they were going to stay for four or five days. Unfortunately, last week, it turned into just my brother and his friend and only staying for one night. Last night, D called and said his friend can’t come, but he’s bringing a different friend. After all of these changes, I can’t help if I am feeling just a bit nervous about the fact that he hasn’t called…

G and I have been saving up for a few new things for our living room. It’s taken us a few months to get the money together, but most of it came from EQ2 and selling off our characters and such. The first of our purchases arrives today and I can’t wait! A brand new couch from Rooms to Go. Here is a picture of what it is supposed to look like: The cushions are Microfiber plush, which is usually super soft. I hope it’s as nice as it looks to be in the pictures. We’ll see. They are supposed…

Well, last night’s dreams were pretty intense. Sometime around 6:30 this morning, I had a very vivid dream about a tornado. The scene was very “down on the farm” with cornfields and a barn. G and I were there and were heading out on a date, of course not realizing at first that the weather was bad. As we walked towards his car, the wind picked up and the sky darkened. G casually made a comment about it being “tornado weather” when I looked towards the horizon and there they were. Twin tornadoes. In my dream, the tornadoes were black,…

You would think that at some point, an adult would grow out of nightmares. I mean, aren’t I supposed to be of age to help a child through the night? Or maybe you don’t stop having nightmares until you actually have a child to pass them on to. There’s a scary thought. I certainly don’t want to pass this down to a defenseless child. I hate nightmares. I kept waking up throughout the night, the back of my hair sweaty even though the room was cool. No matter how I positioned my body, I could not get comfortable, and when…

**Update on this is that I received an email from L and he is doing fine. He worked with one of the guys who died, Steve, and says that he was a great person who will be missed.** I read this story on CNN this morning and my heart stopped for a moment. Specifically when I read this part: The embassy official said the American civilians include “a direct hire civilian employee of the Department of State and a Department of Defense civilian employee.” My ex-boyfriend L is an American civilian working at the Embassy there. I am not sure…
