I've been sick since last week. My husband is a first responder and is working a triple shift this week. I'm too tired to actually cook for myself so I made a frozen pizza. Try to move it from the baking sheet to a cutting board and nearly dropped it causing most of the toppings to slide off. 😞
My dog was happy to help with cleanup.
I'm going back to bed.
I'm a dog person. I also love to go to places like the beach or camping at state parks. But I am also fearful of dogs I don't know. Especially bigger dogs. I've been bitten before by a large dog. Plus, I like to bring my own dogs for them to enjoy the outdoors with me. But my dogs are short legged and elderly. Beaches and state parks where I live have leash laws. But every goddamn time I go there's always some twat who insists on letting their dogs run all over the fucking place. My old dogs do not hear or see well anymore. They do not appreciate being rushed up on by some big slobbery dog they dont know. Plus I instantly go on high alert and feel very uncomfortable.
Just this weekend as my husband and I were going for a stroll around the campground at the state park where we were staying, this huge doodle came running over to us. (We did not have our dogs with us thankfully.) He circled us closely several times even as my husband was firmly telling the dog to go away. The owners were standing in their campsite watching the whole thing unfold and called the dog but made zero moves to come get it. The stupid animal then made to jump up on me. My husband reacted instinctively, stepped in front of me and put his knee up to block the dog while yelling at it to "GIT." The dog finally took the hint but the owners start yelling and cursing at us and accusing us of kicking their dog. We just kept walking but I did say over my shoulder (in a firm but polite tone) "Put your dog on a leash. It's the rules. Not everyone likes dogs." Why do these asshats gotta ruin it for everyone? They act like they're some kind of bad ass for not having their out of control dogs on a fucking leash.
