Time for the traditional post thanksgiving post. My thanksgiving started at 5:40 am when i woke up to get ready to go to chicago (where my family is)However i immediately noticed something was wrong b/c there was blood all over the bathroom floor and in the dogs water. just everywhere. So i called out to my parents, and found out that my dog, my baby boy, Shadow, had had a bloody nose since about 1:30 that morning. Needless to say i was shocked and scared and everything else that comes w/the fear of someone you love who is sick. We've known that shadow is sick for about a week or two now, he has cancer. Or i guess i should say had. He had cancer. We took shadow into the vets at about 8:30 where they agreed w/us that shadow needed to be put to sleep. :( See the nosebleed was b/c of another tumor in his nose, which was affecting his breathing, and from this struggle he was exhausted. So he was losing blood, he was struggling to breathe, exhausted and had cancer. the whole time my baby was wagging his tail too. Trying to make us happy. just happy to be loved up. Our house looks/looked (my mom has been cleaning) a crime scene, the pajamas i was wearing, look like i was the murderer b/c for those few hours that we had left, i was cuddling w/him and holding him and petting him etc. I just miss him so so so so so so so much. Luckily the rest of thanksgiving went well. Despite the snowstorm and the situation w/shadow, my family decided to drive to chicago like we had promised, it was like twice as long, but it ended up being worth it. Everyone in the family was MIRACULOUSLY on their best behavior. And i got to play w/julia and johnny (my cousins) which is ALWAYS a good time. Later on that night I found out that my other grandma (i haven't seen her in forever) has been having heart troubles and passed out a few days ago and on thanksgiving. So that sucked. but i talked to my aunt and she's ok. Later sean, kay and i watched sin city. Sorry to whoever likes it, but its a shitty movie. Seriously, just shitty. i give them props for creativity and having a GREAT line-up. But there wasn't a consistant plot, no real conclusion, it was a bit chaotic, and SOO damn VIOLENT! Just crazy. So i guess E for effort. Oh and sean showed me his nine millimeter. yeah, i'm never gonna go near a gun...just being near it freaks the fuck outta me, like i don't care if there aren't bullets in it, i don't care if the safety lock is on, its freaky.
