It's been a while, but I've made my way back. It's been interesting, filled with tv of course, and new faces.
One in particular is my almost 17 month old chihuahua/miniature pinscher! Let's call him Killer; he growls at every percieved potential threat. It's sweet, tiresome, but something I'm trying to figure out how to balance without the neighbors getting hacked off.
I was lucky enough to work at a neat game store for two years, give or take. It was a nice place, but we were the new branch and closed down when things were too tight cash-wise. A typical business thing, but not shattering. I found myself in a busier retail environment and am enjoying that despite some things I wish I could do better/faster. At 42, I still feel young mostly, but sometimes the Bod tells me to shut up. 
Due to these two developments, I'm still wanting to find another dog- so Killer won't go nuts due to myself and the Sainted having to work. Between work, potty trips, and the usual stuff-of-life, I'm trying to figure out what dog would go good with Killer, all 5 pounds of him, and us and keep the three of us from going nuttier than we already are.
With Fall almost here(?) again, I just wanted to say 'Hi!' again. Hope the coming week brings lots of good news and luck to ya'll as well.
