    Oh my. I would have to just get both. How could you choose?! 

    Do you take Rufus to meet them? We are a little nervous to introduce a second dog as well. We love Fox and don't want him to be sad, but we also want another dog. It's worrisome, but I think worth it.

    Yeah, lol, that's occurred to me. I didn't want to put all our eggs in one basket, so decided to keep options open. But then I was just thinking, if we like them both, how do we say no to one? Eep!

    Hi friends,

    I'm a major stressball today. H's car won't start, and it's kind of a POS anyway, so we have to get him something else. Buying a new car is hell for me. It is so stressful.

    So were sharing my car, and have completely non compliant work schedules, so were stuck begging people for rides, which I hate.

    I have no idea when we can both go look for a car, the last day off we had together was probably the honeymoon. UGH.

    Sorry to vent.

    I really, really want a second dog but Hunter (3 y/o English Setter, former rescue dog) is so spoiled that I think he'd have a hard time. He loves other dogs in the neighborhood and his buddies at doggie daycare, but having to share his house and toys (and momma) with another dog would probably be harder on him that I think it will. He's one of those dogs that forgets he's a dog sometimes - not that he misbehaves - he's just used to being with the humans, doing what the humans are doing, eating what the humans are eating, and it's hard to keep that up with two dogs, and two kids half the time (FI's sons).

    Hope you find the second furry love of your life and that your pup takes to the new pup well. It's really exciting, but kind of nerve-wracking too. I'd definitely be at risk of loving them both. I have no willpower when it comes to dogs.

    Those puppies are adorable!

    Ray, sorry you're stressed out. Being one car down is never fun. Maybe you could discuss price point, type of car, etc and he goes out by himself. Before making a final decision, you can take a look at it too. On a different day if need be. *hugs*
  • Annie - I love English Setters! Got pics?

    Good luck with the car situation ray - that sounds really stressful.
  • Thanks for the love guys! H is going to go after work tonight and look. I'm sure it will be ok. UGH I need to chill out.

    Not the greatest pictures, but these are the only clear shots I have on my phone.

    He was about 7 months old when I adopted him. His assumed birthday is the end of this month (don't know for sure since he's rescue), so he's roughly 3. I love him to pieces. We don't know if he's a purebred setter but he looks just like the setter I had as a kid. Not sure I want to spend the $ to have a DNA test done since it doesn't matter to me at all. I do know for a fact that he is a purebred, 100% goofball.

    Yeah, he does the "thinking" pose quite well. In reality, if the dog has two brain cells in his entire head, they certainly aren't touching.  He gets by on his looks and his charm.

  • Oh, he's the "field" type English Setter (sometimes called Lewellyn, I think), not the "show" type. People always expect him to be bigger and furrier. There is a pair of "show" type setters down the road from us. Talk about some dignified looking dogs. But just as goofy.

    Erin he currently drives a police interceptor- crown victoria, and he LOVES it. He looks like a drug dealer in it lol. Were looking at some other crown vics, or really anything at this point!

    Yay for invitations Chels!

    I was beyond excited when our STDs were done. I did them myself, so it wasn't like there was any suspense, but just seeing them all printed and ready to go was really, really cool.

    WTH vetoes guacamole?!  Man I hope this is all worth it in the end Rach, it sounds like it's been a huge pain in the butt.
  • What kind of monster vetoes guac?  I think I'll be making some for Saturday.  I might also try and do beet chips.  We'll see how brave I am.

    I usually love guacamole, but working at a texmex restaurant has made me hate all food that is mexican.

  • Rach I can't get over how cute your sig pic is.
  • edited March 2012
    I've never liked guac. It took me years to try it too because it just looks completely gross but I still didn't like it.
  • I need to shop for dresses to wear to the two weddings I'm going to this month. I'm always so bad at deciding what to wear to a wedding.

    Can I just wear my wedding dress?
