Yeah, I think small dogs are often more energetic than large dogs.

I guess rats could be awesome, too. They're just as cuddly as dogs but take up less space... and probably cheaper to take care of. But I like the idea of dogs because they'd force me to be active and exercise.

Aw. My stomach is hurting too. Glad it's better today for you, though. I hope the headaches passes soon, too. Maybe you could buy those reusable pads and just... always wear one? lol

The weather's been pretty pleasant over here. I hope it lasts before it starts raining again.

Photoshop? I haven't tried everything there myself. I just tend to stick to the first thing I tried that worked.

Wow, that sounds really mean. I hope it was more playful in real life and it's just text making it sound harsher than it is.

@Raine: Right, I have a special set of ugly panties that I can use during that time XD But I can be convenient, at least I know more or less when it's gonna start ^^;

I've tried searching tutorials for that program, but there's not much of them. Though I did search them last year I believe, so maybe now there's more? I'll have to check sometime

I am unable to start a conversation irl At least if it's supposed to be a casual chat, I just go blank. If I have to ask my boss something related to work, I gather my thoughts for some time and then wait for the right moment ;>_>

@Sunlight: Are they?

See, that's tricky with rats, they aren't always that cheap to take care of, they get sick pretty often ^^; Sure, sometimes you can skip buying rat food, because they'll gladly have a piece of an apple/tomato/carrot/boiled egg or yoghurt and will survive just fine, but they tend to get health issues and we all know that vets who specialize in small rodents aren't cheap But they are worth it, at least if you ask me <3 But yeah, dogs sound great as well... Few days ago Ash and I went for shopping and everywhere we looked, someone was walking their dog, and we were both eyeing the dogs and couldn't shut up about wanting one of our own XD

I think he meant it as playful, but I do get stuff personally a lot, plus pms isn't helping XD I try not to let it get to me too much x.x

I've got special underwears that are super absorbent for my time of the month. I get so mad when I soil the regular ones... especially if they're cute.

I don't know if it's just that the owners don't train small dogs because they're "cute" or what, but most large dogs I've seen are pretty mellow while the small dogs are super hyper. Not counting puppy stage, of course.
All dogs are pretty much hyper when they're puppies.

Those are all good points. I guess either way, I'll have to make sure I'm making enough before I get a pet.

Yesterday a dog sniffed my hand and I was very happy. I just wish I had a chance to pet him before he went off after his owner.

Hmm, okay. I'd tell him that it hurts even if he doesn't mean it that way, if you haven't already. My boyfriend makes sure not to make jokes about topics I'm sensitive on and I think someone who cares for you should be like that.

I've heard about such panties, but I don't think they are sold here in Poland, at least I've never seen any ad of them or anything. I guess I'd have to search.

We had a dog that went through training... she was in a forever-puppy stage anyways and never listened to our commands XD I think she was a German Shepherd mix, a pretty average-sized dog.
I always thought that's just how small dogs are, scared, always barking etc., but maybe there's more to it that I haven't considered Maybe it has to do with the fact that bigger dogs have stronger pack instincts and they just respect the pack leader - the human? *shrugs*

Yea, it's better to be prepared I'm wondering if I should insist on the rats now that I may be unemployed since November... although technically that's when I'd get my last salary. But then in December I may be unemployed and then what? Eh, stupid management doesn't tell anything.

One day I was on a bus, and one guy had a pitbull with him (or a staffordshire, not really sure now), and I love those beasties And so the dog goes exploring the bus, sniffing around on the floor and hits my boot with his nose. I was so happy QwQ As far as I know it's hard to get a pitbull here in Poland, there's no breeders. Or I am retarded when it comes to googling stuff. Anyway, I was in bliss because I was so close to that dog XD

I'm only learning to communictae my needs/what bothers me... but I know him, he didn't mean anything by it. Though maybe I should've told him that wasn't a nice joke.... Well, too late, I'll get over it

Ugh Caravan why now when I'm so busy DX

*reading back*
Mem how's that cage building going?
Raine, allergic to honey, that sucks! D: Butternut squash soup, maybe?
Zia, what kind did you get?

Yeah, I don't see them here in Canada, either. I had bought them in Korea and when my mom goes back I ask for them. I also spot them in Korean clothing stores sometimes.

Maybe it just depends on temperament of each dog. I know a corgi-chihuahua mix that's just the best. He's so calm and quiet.

That'd really make me anxious. I hope it all works out.

Ugh, that sounds awesome. I love it when dogs come to say hi to me. I would never approach strange dogs but I love it when they give me a chance to pet them.

Okay. I would probably bring it up even if it's later but that's how I work.
You find what works for you and your boyfriend.

@Kimi: Aww, sorry you're busy this Caravan D:

The cage building isn't going at all during the week we're both tied and can't find the time to design the cage, and without the design, Ash doesn't know what to buy, and this time he rather have everything masured out prior to him building. Cutting the wood manually sucks, especially we don't have tools for that ;__;
But maybe we should abstain from getting any pets for now. My boss says they'll probably need me anyway for a few months more at least, but we still don't know on what conditions. And I'm not sure I would agree to what they offer me.

@Zia: Lol, yeah, dog's personality is also a thing to consider :)

I'm afraid that if I had brought it up now, he'd be like "what are you talking about, you crazy woman? I don't even remember saying that o.O". And that wouldn't surprise me, because I'd react the same way xD

Oh my god that's great that you're going to be able to keep your job for at least for a few months. Hope that extends indefinitely.

Well, alright. I don't know how long ago that was but I sometimes bring up things super late because if I try to bring them up when it comes up I know I'll end up being a lot meaner about it than I want to be.
