Grief

I know she's a dog  I know she is not even my dog.  But when you groom a dog once a month for 11 years you get emotionally invested in their health and well being.  She was a mischevious, stubborn, affectionate, independant little shit who kept me on my toes for 11 years.  She had a great life and I am going to miss her terribly.  Sparky had a stroke yesterday and her owner showed up for her appointment last night with only 2 dogs, not 3.  She's 14 years old.  Go peacefully my friend.  You deserve it.

What I Are

So everyone knows my mantra, I am not a slave.  Well I just had confirmation of that fact from M.  This is what he posted on fet..

Vixen isn't a slave. She's not entirely submissive. What she is? A wonderful partner, a devoted bride, a good home-maker and mother, and all with a full-time job that is as physically demanding as, and pays a lot more than, mine. She holds herself to a higher standard than I could ever impose. Mostly. I don't really have to do anything. She handles her own discipline.

FTW!!!
