I put up a new UserPic. This is proof that on average I wasn't very cute and that I had what I would call, "a minor mullet." I got my hair cut like that all because my friend in 2nd grade cut her hair like that. I was such a copier.



and on another note:

i finally bought grass seed today so i could rip out the eyesore of a bush we have growing. its kinda of like ground cover but if you let it grow it gets taller and taller. of course before i actually get to do it, I saw this:





I think i'll wait for derek to come home so he can rip it out while i scream.

the odd thing is that I have a snake... but i don't let it slither around like a wild man or bite me. i'm afraid of what else is under there.. ewww!!

This Sunday, September 19th is "Hiking for Hounds." Its a huge greyhound fundraiser at Ellicott Creek Park. I just found out about it at PETCO who is "Greyhound Planet's" major sponsor.

There is registration and all of that, some auctions, a 1/2 or 2 mile walk and then a picnic. All breeds are welcome but no bitches in heat, no pups under 6 months, and your dog must behave appropriately. Bring proof of rabies shot.

begins at 10am. goes until 2pm.

I am going to bring Katie to meet her cousins.

Here is a link to the site:

and a link to GReAT's Buffalo site

I just wanted to write in case anyone searches for this event. Maybe it'll come up.

Here's Katie when we went camping in Allegheny.

pack mentality or not, those kids are sick. besides punishment, all should have psychiatric counseling. wasn't the puppy crying? it had to have, and they kept on beating it. what's next? someone should kick their asses, see how they like it. i just looked over at my doggy and I just got more upset. awful awful awful.
