Bored....

I'm so friggin bored.   Our second puppy had her spay surgery on Thursday, so we are pretty much on lockdown. My honey, who has been going stir crazy in this house with the dogs, went out for a few hours, so I'm home alone pretty much tethered to the couch to keep them quiet and away from their sutures. 

I have watched so many movies today, I can't even stand it anymore.

BLah.  I need something to amuse me.

    Booh. I know what you mean. The other day I was watching TV and had watched so many episodes of the same show I was hating it, and it was true crime shows, which I love! Hope the puppy is all healed up soon!


    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    Blech - being bored sucks...

    I just wanted to let you know, @cmgilpin, that I think what you and your partner have done for those dogs is amazing! You're awesome people! 

    It isn't easy to keep puppies calm - I used to use a bitter cream on mine so that if they did try to lick, the taste would put them off. Keeping them from jumping around was more challenging.

    Good luck, and I hope they're healing quickly!

    I hear ya.  I'm a bit bored myself but my IL's are coming over for dinner soon.  It's my MIL's b-day on Monday so we invited them over for a roast beef.  It smells delicious.  I'm also making mashed potatoes and some veggies.

    Bored too.  I was supposed to go to the casino with my gay best guy friend tonight and he's freaking stood me up!  His phone goes straight to voicemail and I've been texting since noon.  He's supposed to play in a poker tournament out there tonight and was going to use his comps to get me into bingo while he did that, and then buy me dinner. I'm half worried that something is wrong, and half pissed as all holy hell at him.  No idea if he's even at the tournament. Seems like all my other friends are either out of town or already have plans, so I'm home alone now, stewing.  And I have to figure out my own dinner now on top of it.

    Why do you describe him as your "gay best friend"?  I always wonder why people need to point out someone's sexual orientation (or religion or whatever for that matter) when describing someone.  No one says they're going to hang out with their "straight best friend".  I don't get it.  To me, he'd be a best friend.   Just one of my irks in life.  :D

    As for the holdup, maybe he's winning at poker and can't get back to you!

    Good point, but in this case it's because he calls himself that, lol. I don't call anyone else that, and it doesn't occur to me to do it. It's just one of 'our' things.  And, he was supposed to let me know yesterday the timing, and didn't, the tournament started tonight, and I started trying to get hold of him this morning.  If he's there, I hope he is winning, but regardless if he couldn't keep our plans, he should have told me not to bother planning on coming out.  I turned down other offers to keep my plans with him (because he asked first), and by the time I knew I was stood up, it was too late to catch up with the other group. I'm trying not to be too mad because I know he could have had a problem that's out of his control, but a quick text still would have helped.

    Here is something amusing I found today: www.omfgdogs.com. It is incredibly stupid, but I keep going back to it.

    Ahhh, ok.  And I understand your frustration.  It's annoying, and hopefully he has a good enough excuse without being anything too serious.
