*dusts off her journal* Oi, it's been quite a while. I haven't updated this in forevers...well lets see, what's new...I went to Indianna last month in July and saw Lauren and Laura. It was fun, I felt more like a girly girl than I have in a really long time. We got all dressed up and pretty and went to an Irish pub to celebrate Laura's birthday with her family. I got to meet Laura's family and Lauren's family - and enjoyed my stay very much so. I met their friends too, and that was great. I'd do it again in a heartbeat, but first I needs more munnies.
And just last week I went to Florida to see Ian, and had fun with him too. We saw My Super Ex-Girlfriend, Clerks II, and Pirates of the Caribbean : Dead Man's Chest (squee! I've seen it three times already. And it doesn't get old. And I would totally see it again. And again. And again.) We went to the mall and did some shopping (which is always fun) and I met his cousins. Ben and Sean are nucking futs ^_^ And I <3 them so. We watched The Boondock Saints, because it's my favorit movie. And Ian liked it too! Yay! And we watched Eddie Izzard Dressed to Kill and lots of Mystery Science Theatre 3000.
I returned on Saturday, July 29...
And on the evening of July 30, Buttons died. ;_; I'm going to miss him terribly. I never imagined that he would be the first one to leave us. But he was, and he did, and even though it hurts something awful I know he's in a better place, where the fleas won't bother him. We gave him a good life. Yesterday I went to work and cried so much I couldn't stay the entire day. At first I wasn't sure if such a thing was wrong, but I know now it's not. Everyone I talked to at work understood how I've felt - they dread the day their beloved furry friends leave this world.
Today was better though. I can think and type this journal, thinking about Buttons, and not cry anymore. It was just sudden. One day he was fine, snuggling with me and happy that I was home, and then the next he just wouldn't eat or drink, we thought his stomach was just upset because earlier that day we'd found what appeared to be dierrea and there wasn't anything odd about it. He let out one last cry, a goodbye I suppose, because it wasn't one of pain.
I'll remember him in good memories, with funny moments and interesting nicknames such as Jimmy Six Fingers (because he had six or more toes on each paw) and Buttons Blue Eyes (for his gorgeous icy blues)
RIP Buttons....
*EdIt*
On a lighter note...I got a Nintendo DS. And the Nintendogs game. It's addicting. And best of all you can save anytime ^_^ Sunday wasn't completely terrible, and I really am okay now. No more tears. I'll remember my little ball of white fluff happily. And on this coming Sunday, my job has our company picnic and I'm looking forward to it. That is all, later taters!
