Now it's Slocombe's turn.....

We just can't get a break. I'm still not over losing Weber 2 months ago, and now Slocombe is having surgery on Friday. Thankfully it's not as bad as when we took Weber, but it's still worrysome. He is having trouble peeing. The vet took x-rays today and it looks like bladder stones. The surgery will remove the stones and then he's on a strict diet. Of course, the vet will have the stones checked to make sure nothing worse is wrong. But I'm optimistic that he'll be OK. He is still acting normal, eating and drinking. So he seems like he's not sick, like Weber was. Please keep him in your thoughts. Tim and I can't go through losing another pet yet. I'm still not completely over losing Weber. Losing Slocombe would send me over the edge. But hopefully, he will be OK and back to fighting with Caliope.

Anyway. Have a Safe and Happy New Year!!! 2009 can't be any worse than 2008 was. If it is, we are all fucked!

Merry Christmas from the Palins!

I should have voted my conscience!

President-elect Obama has picked Rev. Rick Warren to deleiver the innvocation at his inauguration. Rick Warren’s vocal support for California’s Proposition 8, as well as his public statements equating homosexuality with pedophilia and an array of other anti-LGBT sentiments — his selection for such a visible and prominent role in the inauguration is insulting and hurtful to LGBT people.

The choice of Rev. Warren also belies Obama’s calls to religious leaders to own up to the homophobia and racism that has stood in the way of combating HIV/AIDS in this country, as well as public calls for religious leaders to open their hearts to their LGBT family members, neighbors and friends.

I knew Obama would not support LGBT issues once he was in power. Once a homophobe, always a homophobe. I shouldn't be surprised. After he declared that he was opposed to gay marriage, I knew the gay community couldn't rely on him. I should have stuck to my guns and wrote in Hillary Clinton when I voted. But the Sarah Palin influence changed my mind. At least with McCain/Palin we knew where they stood on gay issues and wouldn't be dissapointed when they didn't deliver. My hope is that Obama takes enough heat from this controversy that it makes him keep his promises. Keep this in mind, Mr. Obama, you wouldn't have been elected without our support. We don't need 4 more years of Bush antics in the White House. Based on this, I don't have much faith that things will be any better for us.

It's Britney Bitch!!!

Yeah!!! Finally!!! Britney's Back and she's coming to Columbus.
Naturally we are going, as are most of the queens in C-bus. Womanizer womanizer your're a womanizer baby. You just don't get profound lyrics like that anymore. What makes the comeback concert even better is the Pussycat Dolls open. Ohh, I smell a gay ol time coming.

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Not feeling up to it I guess. We are both feeling better finally. Who would have thought that losing a dog would be more traumatic than losing a person. But for us it has been. I had a dream about Weber a couple nights ago, which just happened to be 2 months since we put him down. In the dream I got to pet him. I think that was his way of telling me that he is OK. I think I can move on now. That was all I needed to know from him, that I did the right thing and that he is OK. He answered me finally.

I will be blogging more. I have a nice rant about Obama picking right wing religious zealot homophobe Rick Warren to do the invocation at the inauguration. Needless to say, I was right about why I shouldn't have voted for him. But that's for another blog.

In the meantime.... hit me baby one more time!!!!
