the drama must stop. its too damn much. there is too damn much. there is too much emotional stuff that keeps following me around the past few weeks. i don't even know where to start. last weekend, i got a nervous call from my mother saying our family dog of 10 years, Cody, was hit by a car and being taken to the vet ER. about 30 minutes later she ( Read more... )

Sorry about the dog situation. That sucks. I'm on my first dog right now and I don't know what I'm going to do when it's time for him to go.

The CLUW job sounds bad-ass (I wish our Chapter here was worth a crap) but you would deserve an award for living in D.C. (but I would come visit you!). But I suppose for the right amount of money someone could live anywhere right?

We have a mouse problem at our place too and this seems to have worked so far: put the poison in closets that you can close from the dogs, or behind a couch; the mouse aficionado at the pest control place here told me to get a spray bottle of 1/2 water 1/2 ammonia and spray then wipe down along the molding in the whole perimeter of your house, but especially where you know that they frequent. The idea is that mice pee constantly when they move and they use that pee smell as a map everywhere they go. So using the ammonia wipes out that scent and they won't keep going, but rather turn around. Since I did that on half of my place I haven't seen any evidence of mice - BUT there has been evidence of mice in the parts that I haven't gotten to yet.

Nice! The one chapter that we have in the state is run by an 800 y.o. woman who is really cool, but.... really, really old, so it's pretty much inactive.

i think that's the problem nationwide and why they wanted to hire a youngster like me. lets definitely stay in touch about this!
