Anime Club was LOTS of fun last week. We'll be starting at ep 6 of Bacanno!. so, watch the first 5 episodes and then join us tomorrow. Molly says so!
EDIT: Molly has overtime till 9 pacific time. I forgot and can't make it. BOO!
I talk about Giant Dog a lot. I mean A LOT. He's my Bady Boo after all. I'm not one of those stupid people who talk baby talk to their canines and have them lick their faces. That's repulsive. I do however say, "Hi," whenever he walks in the room.
So, I've decided to talk about Giant Dog in my post today. His actual name is Demian. The Christmas after we got married Husband wanted a puppy. On my birthday (Dec 28th) we went to the Humane Society. It was jammed packed, and there were no puppies he liked. I knew the second we walked into the Puppy Room what was going to happen though. I saw a beauty "puppy" in the first kennel. He was about 6 months old and laready 60 pounds. He just kind of laid there, chilling out. I fell in love with that dog at first sight. I told Husband, "You can look for your puppy, but I'm not going home without that dog." Well, he had just been neutered that day, so I did leave without him, but I came back.
When I came back 3 days later, he was not just laying around anymore. He was kind of active, but not a high energy level. I never had a second guess about it, and we loaded him up and took him to PetSmart first to get a kennel and food and home.
That will be 4 years ago this December. I'm pretty sure before I got him, he was abused because he used to pee on the floor if I yelled, whether it was at him or not, and such things. My sister tells me she's never seen a dog grin like Demian either. My favorite thing about him, beside snuggling, is that he follows me around like a baby duck. Where ever I go in the house, he's two feet behind me. It's kind of cute.
I also like that if you don't know better, he's fucking scary. My poor Mother would not set foot in my house for months once he was fully grown. Then, one weekend I had to go out of town and I left them with my parents. She warmed up then. I used to take him to the Blockbuster with me when I worked. He would hang out behind the counter and be big. Our product theft went down a lot then.
He's a good dog, and without him, I would have gone crazy during the separation and the pending divorce. He was supposed to be my dog, that's all there is to it.
I'm still sick. That's all on the Molly Front.
On FridayLyndy wants to do kids movie night. It was kind of my idea, so I'm gonna be there. Drop in, have some American animation fun with us.
I still feel like shit. I'm going to make a doctor's appointment for this week. I just have no energy, like I can hardly stand, and I have a terrible headache due to the fact that me neck is messed up and, as mentioned a few days ago, my stomach feels like a cement mixer that has stopped spinning. I feel like there are rocks just sitting in there. That makes me think of Little Red Riding Hood, when the woodcutter fills the Wolf's stomach with rocks. Not that that has anything to do with anything...
I had a good day yesterday, even though I was sick. Way and I hijacked chat yesterday when we found out we have similar music tastes. And then, eventually, I went to Anime Club. We watched 5 eps of Baccano!, which I LOVE, and then 3 eps of Lucky Star until I finally just fell asleep.
I have come to a realization that I am maturity impaired. I have no plans to change this, but someday I'm going to be the crazy/creepy lady in her 40s who still acts like she's 24, and that is a bit worrisome. Oh well. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
Giant Dog is ultra snuggly today. I still cannot shake this headache. Boo. I've have been UBER-LAZY the last few days. It's been kind of nice. But I get this guilty feeling when I am lazy like that. I'm not sure I have anything that I should be doing, but not doing anything make me feel pretty wasteful.
I'm watching Wolf's Rain like I wanted. I have been wanting to watch it for a bit, mostly because I feel quite a bit like Hubb lately. Whether I relate to him or not, he might be my favorite character in the entire show. He's adorable, what with his earnest need for the truth and his long lasting infatuation with his ex-wife. Cheza and Toboe annoy me but I like almost all the main characters, and I actually really enjoy the dub. The credit for that is probably given mostly to Crispen Freeman as Tsume and Robert Buchholz as Hubb Lebowski.
random interjectionWhen I was looking up who voiced Hubb for the English version last night, I found out Kari Walgren grew up in a town about an hour away from where I grew up! :O
On a different note MACHETE opens today. Anyone who saw the GrindHouse films should be squeeling with delight! When I saw them, I was way more interested in the "fake" trailer for Machete then I was in the actual movies. Probably mostly because I love Danny Trejo in anything, and Robert Rodriguez is pretty great, even is he named his kids Renegade, Rocket and Rebel.
