One of the things I hate about the new 4k837373k ultimate 846373gkk TV's is the fast-food ads where they basically try their best to shove a tacoratoqqitorito down your throat.

Angel Day Blessings for Chibby....my heart is breaking.....
Comforting Blessings to you and your family....
Thinking of @NeelyDan and chibby at this very moment, may strength and love get you through this moment.
same here.
such a heartbreaking thing to do. Been there too many times. But I never learn.
Hearts out to Dan & Chibby.
Crying reading your messages, both public and private - including some that I’ve been at odds with in the past over, certainly right now, feels like really, really silly and meaningless things. That says so much about all of you and this place.
Thank you.
Chibby passed very peacefully this morning at 9am, in my arms. He told me last night in his way that he was ready. I broke down, and wound up on my landing outside, looking up into the sky and a single bird flew overhead. It was him. I know that sounds silly, but it was - he was letting me know he’s okay, and that he loves me. It was a feeling that washed over me as real as breathing.
I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to love another dog. I know that’s partly grief talking, and even if one day my heart opens up to the possibility, I know that I will never love another the same as I loved chibby. He was pure love. My divorce saw me bounce from place to place over the last 7 years and through it all he was my rock. Home was wherever I was. It literally did not matter to him. All he needed was to be by my side and if I’m being honest I feel completely unworthy of his love. I only know that I did my very best to give him a happy life. I just hope on some level he knew that what he gave me was a million times bigger than what I was able to give him.
I miss him. I can’t stop crying, and I honestly forgot how painful crying is.
The love you have all shown me….it staggers and humbles me, and I am infinitely grateful for it.
Thank you.

My love goes out to you, brother.
I’ve endured this day as well, and many of us know how much you hurt.
This is the price we pay for all the love and joy our pets bring us. He was a special dog - as they all are in their own way. Rejoice for the good life he had with you - a life he never would have had with anyone else. Take comfort in your friends and your relationships, and although you will never get over this, one day you will get past it and love again.
God bless you.
The price we pay for unconditional love is a steep one. A silver lining, memories are stronger than pain and they'll eventually push the pain aside and takeover.
Until then, distractions are helpful. Have your favorite food, watch your favorite movies, play your favorite game, start a new hobby...

Guy in a big box truck took the corner in my apartment complex too short, I saw he was about to hit me and tried to back out of the way, he kept coming, and whammo.
Just talked to the insurance agent, hope they aren't a bunch of scammers. Never heard of the company before.
I've had this car for a month. A month!! I could just cry.

I believe I mentioned previously that I saw Paper Moon and The Bad News Bears nine times on a double bill in the 70s. I had a crush on Tatum O'Neil, who won an Oscar for her performance here.
A great movie and one of my all time favorites from director Peter Bogdanovich. The chemistry between father and daughter is glorious,
Rest in power Chibs. Thanks for taking care of our boy NeelyDan for so long. Endless dog treats,and unsoiled trees and hydrants for you to piss on for eternity.

God bless Dan.
In early July, we put down our dog of 15 years. It was definitely his time and we knew it was coming. Having said that, I was far sadder than I ever thought I would be. The moment when he passed was the most peaceful thing I've ever seen, and the vet confirmed it was his time because he passed within 10 seconds of getting the injection.
Me and the misses often said that when Mickey passed, we would get another dog at some point in our lives. But that it would be awhile.
4 Months later, the Missus' friend who fosters docs had taken in a pup who was hypoallegenic. A family bought him and then a week later decided to give him up. He was relatively calm and my son took to him, so we decided to take him.
Quite frankly, it felt like it was too soon. And for the first few weeks I constantly called him "Mickey" by mistake, out of habit. But it has been a treat having a pup in the house. He is excited about every single thing that happens. His joy is infectious.
Each person has to make their own decision, and I am happy with ours. King Louie is definitely a welcome addition, and my son and I are back to our nightly evening walks.
Best of luck with coping with your loss.
Thank you to those who told me about tv swivel mounts instead of the wall mount. My uncle just came over and put it together. Absolutely fantastic. Thank you everyone who suggested it!

Mentioned it in the GDT, but I had a recruiter reach out to me about an opportunity that would involve relocating to Myrtle Beach.
My head is sort of spinning at the possibility.
Cost of living down there is substantially lower.

Make a pros and cons list and ask about paid relo, temp furnished housing and a guaranteed contract.
it is a huge decision and you want to put some safeguards in place.
Good luck!
