Tags: Eclipse, Election Day
Just a quick post. It’s Election Day and I’m excited to get done with work so that I can go vote. I ended up being all busy this morning and by the time I had walked the dogs and made a desert for work (I promised) it was time to go to work, but, I should have time right after if I hurry.
I went and bought “Eclipse” today!! So, thats why I want to hurry and post, because I am excited to start reading!!!!!
Other than that, not much going on. Had a pleasant conversation with a nice lady at the Virginia ATF office. I love southern accents!
The pups slept in their crates last night for the second night in a row and I think everyone actually slept better, so we’ll probably continue the tradition. Everyone is happier when mom is well-rested.

Things are progressing well and I’ve found a couple places that I can get collars from and so I’m waiting on a call back from a retailer that may be able to get me a wholesale price. Leather studded collars, especially in Ben’s size (26 – 28″) are a little pricey. Isn’t that a heck of a neck. My waist is 28″… are you kidding me? Alley by comparison needs an 18″ collar. Which I found in the most beautiful pink today for $50, but they didn’t have Ben’s size.
Here are a few pics from today!

Ben Taking a Break on the Couch

They are getting along fine!
As you can tell, Alley and Ben are really getting along well. It’s amazing to me. At first I thought, oh, they’re just getting along well because they’ve been together for a week already, but, when Grant was here, who Alley has known for years, she never settled down with him to this extent. They liked each other but would never lay like this. It’s only Day Six and they’re already sleeping with each other.
This was the second pic, in the first pic they were much closer, but Alley got up when I got up to get the camera.
Our day was pretty calm, we all just kind of sat around and took it easy. I finished “New Moon” and I still haven’t actually bought “Eclipse”, although I’ve looked at it at Walmart and then again today at Half Price Books.
I think I’ll wait till my next paycheck, so I’m going to start one of these other books next to the couch. I have a couple books to choose from. Either “Kate Remembered” about Katherine Hepburn or “Silent Witness” about Terri Schiavo… or, if I’m not up to that kind of deep reading maybe “Fortress of Ice” by C. J. Cherryh, a good fantasy book. A friend just lent me “Marine Sniper” by Charles Henderson. I’ve read it once before, but, I look forward to reading it again.
Election Day is quickly approaching. I’ve never had a presidential election who’s outcome will effect me so personally. And Halloween is right around the corner.
