Sad Times

Bambi does not get along with Tawny, who belongs to Damm's mother. Several times she has been the aggressor and where Bambi goes, that's where Max (her brother and father-in-law's dog) goes. She has always been submissive, sweet, and gentle with us and the orclette. But the latest incident freaked out Damm's mother, and it seems like Bambi must go. I volunteered this solution because it seemed to be the best course of action. I still think it is. But I really wish I hadn't had to make it. So Bambi will go back to the rescue place which I have been assured never puts their dogs down. I don't much feel like getting another dog. And at the moment I hate this fucking place. Again. Please pardon my language, I don't typically use it. Only in stressful situations. Which I seem to be having a lot of.

Getting rid of Bambi, even though I've only had her 2 weeks, is possibly one of the hardest things I've had to do.

I found a doggy on 10/17 and immediately fell in love with the little bugger, I had to give him up just 2 weeks later to his original owner and I felt terrible.
Whatever empathy I can provide for knowing you're not alone, at least in the doggy situation, is gratis.

sorry to hear about it :(

giving up a pet is very hard. i know it all too well unfortunately.

In the end, the choices are made to be for the best of all parties.

My wife and I send our prayers. Dogs have that "magic" power that make us fall in love with them really quickly. I think it their unconditional love they express that does it. So even if you only had the dog a week, it's hard to let go.

It makes it harder when it's "your" dog. My family has always had a pet either it be a dog, cat, serveral attempts at fish (btw I have no clue why anyone would want a fish as a pet, but thats another story). All of them have been gotten for a particular sibling. The dog my wife and I have is my 1st dog (actually bought for me and my wife, and not someone else) and I can't begin to fathom my lil Angel (lab/border collie mix) not being there.

Hang in there. I know you might not enjoy the situation you're in right now, but its the goal you must keep in mind.

Sorry to hear about it Wulfa. I had to give my dog to my parents when I had Connor because he was prone to growling/snapping. It never bothered me as I had only been bitten 2x in 10 years but I couldn't take the chance of the little guy being bitten even once.

Still, I know how it is when a "new" place isn't working out. Sometimes you do things for the greater good. Sometimes you have to get the fuck out.

btw, the F word is fine with em!

Guildless.

Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.

On being Horde.

Obviously we no longer play Horde side. Wulfa has a 70, 45, 32 and numerous other alliance alts now. I've got a 63, 46, 20, 16, 11, 8, 8 Alliance side(all my alliance alts are new since we moved over to Kael'thas, wulfa's playing two characters that already existed before our horde characters were started). But we are two and a half ORCS. Not two and a half random alliance characters. This makes it hard sometimes when I see links to my site or I see a horde shaman etc. It is kind of like going back to your home town and seeing people you used to know and they ask you how your ex-girlfriend is doing. They don't know you split up. You don't really want to talk about it. Etc. Sometimes I think fondly about getting on my Horde shaman and leveling a bit. Nothing ever comes of it. And even less will in the future as I get further and further away from wanting to play those toons. There are things I like on the Alliance side. I like the Dreanai. A lot. Even th...
