Happy Mabon! (Autum Equinox)

Well well...

Apparently he can run but he can't hide forever from wage garnishment. Wonder how long he'll stick with this job before he runs off again. Gotta love them dead beat dads.

Ladies, gentlemen, wenches, and rouges the world stopped spinning briefly today when I checked the child support website and saw that not only am I getting a child support check but, for the first time in about four years, it's for the full amount. o_O

Gee, whatever shall I do with a check in an amount larger than $6.00????

Of course this means now I'll have to be even more cautious of the Psycho Stalker...

Found in my inbox: Why Dogs Don't Live Long Lives

This really made me cry.

Ever Wonder Why Dogs Don't Live Long Lives:

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane, were all very attached to Belker and they were hoping for a miracle.

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family there were no miracles left for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home. As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion.

We sat together for a while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, "I know why."

Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. He said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life -- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."
