Ribbit's blog: "Thoughts"

Merlin Strack August 4, 1998 - April 3, 2008 Hope to see you soon my lil buddy! Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... Author unknown...

Ok, seriously! I was supposed to have a date today with this guy who has been asking me out for 3 months and I finally say yes. No big deal, just lunch, maybe a picnic or something, wasn’t my idea, was all his. He was all excited I finally said yes...called me yesterday afternoon, asked if we were still on for today, but the call kept dropping because he was in an area without very good cell service, so I was like, just call me later. 9pm rolls around and nothing. So at about 9:30 i sent him a message like, am i supposed to plan my day around some imaginary date?? He’s like, no not at all - I reply so what time, where, etc etc, and nothing - wasnt until about Midnight-ish he replies saying sorry I didnt have much service where i was all night, I will call you in the morning. Morning rolls around...we’re both online, not even a hello. I sent him a message around 1pm, cuz I wanted to be a bitch, cuz I was pissed off, saying, since I haven’t heard from you, I made plans today, and figured you wouldn’t mind since I wasn’t on your list of priorities. He responds that he was "bulldogged" into going to church with his parents this morning and he just got out and figured we would hang out tonight - would have been nice to know right? I was like so why didn’t you say anything this morning when you were online, and you think I got a response?? Nope, not one - haha. LOSER!!! I’m sorry, but i’m not going to waste my time on waiting for someone to get their priorities straight!!! Especially since he’s been asking me for 3 months! And people wonder why I dont get my hopes up anymore, or that I wanna be a nun. Men suck!

Ok, So like, say you were offered a job that pays 10K per year than your current job, and you had a place to stay and got paid moving fees to go there, plus the benefits are outstanding, closer to family, would you move?
