yesterday a 4th grader told me this joke
4th grader: knock knock me: who's there? 4th grader: Ariana Grande me: Ariana Grande who? 4th grader: ok boomer |
I really miss animal companionship. It's been 9 months since my dog died. Is it too soon to get a new pet? How does grieving work? I feel a big pit of emptiness these days and can't stand to be at home for too long at a time.

So my advice is, be wary of foster caring for dogs they get in your head with their sad eyes and loyalty and then you can't let go of them very bad |

not looking forward to losing my girl but i hopefully have a while. i've never had a pet on my own before until her (got in 2013). she's 9 and a cat, so she should have like 4-10 years still :( it's a shame they don't live longer but there's nothing wrong with opening your heart to another pet. i still have my cat sheba's ashes, she died in 2007 |
If you want a pet and are able to care for one, I don't see why not.
|
What kind of pet do you want? You strike me as a dog person, but maybe that's my own preference shining through! I don't think I have any additional emotional or financial resources left for a dog, but when it's quiet at night I definitely wish I did.

we're all just hitting buttons on a keyboard and doing ourselves.

And yeah. Ashes. Those are forever. Can't even imagine anything that would cause me to part with them. I'll know my life was well lived when I'm 80 and have an overcrowded mantle full of them. |

Your logic regarding wanting to care for an animal is exactly where my head is at these days. I have love and care to give, so why not? I just worry about replacing my friend psychologically. |

I would encourage you to get another pet if you are yearning for company. Like Reprise said, obviously a new pet will never "replace" an old one. The relationship you will have will be completely different. But pets are healing and there are so many that need homes, I would say go get that dog my friend. You will enrich each other's lives.

mexico city dried out the ridge of my upper lip and i had to carry vasolina around everywhere. playa del carmen has been much kinder.

ugh i'd love to be able to ride a horse whenever i wanted. i've only done it roughly around five times in my life and i just love it so much.
|
aw...

yeah my lip caused me lots of discomfort but it's getting better
|
same

vaseline does nothing for my lips if they're chapped
it's blistex or die |
I wanted a horse for most of my childhood, bad enough that I knew which days of the week there would be more Pets & Livestocks listings in the newspaper classifieds. Anything under $1000 I would look at, because I had saved up about $700 and I was optimistic enough to think I might be able to bargain them down, or get my parents to chip in.
I thought I could just keep one in our back yard and exercise it by riding it up and down the street in front of my awed and jealous neighbours. That idea turned out to be a bit misguided. |

I think I made it about five months between my last cat and some new ones, as the place just felt so empty and it made me sad all the time thinking of her. I still miss her and always will, but somehow having some new life around makes her memory happier. |
Thanks topley and rbg. I think I'm feeling better about going out there and getting a new pet.

Also, a pre-emptive "fuck you" to yo soy.
