Dogs & people

This amuses me.
I feel it may be true. I quite like poodles as well, sadly enough.
How is Sally today?
Better than I have been. Pondering various things - my attitudes to friendship, my weird concentric circles of people, and how to deal with people I don't like. I'm sure I used to be able to co-exist with people that rubbed me up the wrong way. Somewhere along the way I lost that, and developed this habit of just refusing to be in the same room as anyone I didn't like.
It's mostly not affected my life too much. At work, I work bloody hard on liking people, on being inoffensive and I mostly try and find a corner of my own in which to work. As the Fan Museum is quite good on leaving me alone in corners, I do fine.
In my social life, I've worked quite hard on creating my own little clique, where I get to spend time with people I really do like. And I avoid anyone I don't. The Cam, in that respect, has been quite scary for me. It's a place where anyone could turn up.
Ach. I'll keep pondering. In the meantime, I'm going to go to college.

You may look like the troublemaker of the pack, but it turns out your tough guy mug is worse than its bite. You're really a softie, loyal to your friends and family and A-OK with meeting new pooches, but you prefer to do so with a high-five instead of a paw-shake. Proud of your great sense of humor, you've got a whole litter of jokes you draw from to keep the mood playful and the positive energy alive. A perfect afternoon for you involves a leisurely stroll with a pal, followed by a little downtime in an easy chair with a frosty can of brew and a remote control within easy fetching distance. You shed accusations of being lazy, knowing perfectly well that you're kenneling the energy you might need for... well... something."

I shall apologise now for the randomness of this comment. I've been off sick the last few days and it brings out the internet stalker in me....

The Caretaker
Your family is what makes you tick, and you never "flea" from an opportunity to hang out with the whole gang. A family picnic complete with hot dogs, deviled eggs and a refreshing swim in the lake is hard for you to stray from. Your sparky temperament and dogged intelligence mean you are not only a blast to hang out with, but great to work with as well. Your close pals appreciate your patience and forgiveness, knowing you'd rather let sleeping dogs lie than dwell on the mishaps of the past. Your dashing good looks may one day lead to a modelling career, if only you can tame the unfortunate clumsiness that sometimes causes you to go flailing from the catwalk.

The more you do, the stronger and more capable you become. Until one day you can cope with anything...that's the idea anyway...works for me.
HAH! Not a black lab!
