[13:54] roger: How's puppy doing? [13:57] mi: This whole thing is a total waste if you don't have something planned for her [13:57] mi: Or aren't at least going to help me out with walking/feeding or something [13:58] mi: I added all this extra driving and time to my day [13:58] mi: just to have her cry at me when I left to go back to work [14:01] roger: OK. Sorry, I thought it would help a little bit but apparently not. I did tell u that I was busy today. and I've been swamped. [14:03] mi: Yes, you did. But I told you in advance that she hadn't been walked this morning. [14:04] roger: I konw but by the time u got there I aas already late [14:04] roger: I will walk her when i get home [14:05] mi: It's true we were later than I wanted to be, Kelsey is not liking daylight savings time. But it doesn't actually take any of the stress, financial strain, or responsibility off of me if Kelsey doesn't even get to spend any time with you. [14:08] roger: Yeah well... If it's too much for you and u need some help I need more advance notice or at least drop her by on the days u need me to watch her. [14:08] roger: I don't mind watching her and spending time with her [14:08] mi: You were the one who offered to have me bring her by today, I can't give you more advance notice than that lol [14:09] roger: I told you the circumstances. [14:09] roger: I told u last night that if u do bring her I can't see her for lunch [14:10] roger: at least I thought I said that to you [14:10] roger: if not I apologize [14:10] mi: Yes, you did. And I don't mind letting her out at lunch. But I didn't realize I would be walking her at lunch to make up for her missed walk this am, and possibly beating you to your house to pick her up, so I'd have to walk her after the gym as well [14:11] roger: I will keep her overnight [14:11] roger: don't worry about it [14:11] roger: Go to the gym and leave her there [14:11] roger: I will be home by 6 [14:12] roger: I will walk her [14:12] roger: and take care of her tonight [14:12] roger: Leave her for 2 days if u want [14:12] roger: I am leaving for Napa on Sat Eve [14:13] mi: I will think about it [14:13] roger: Also if u need help with vet bills or anything let me know [14:13] mi: thank you for the offer [14:13] roger: all u have to do is ask [14:14] mi: that reminds me her heartworm refill needs to be ordered [14:14] roger: do me a favor.. If u know what brand it is send me the link and i will order it [14:15] mi: prescription is on-file with the vet, have to call them [14:15] roger: How much is it usually? [14:15] roger: do u remember? [14:16] roger: ballpark? [14:16] mi: her total visit in October was like $134, that included shots and heartworm. [14:16] mi: 6 mo supply [14:16] mi: so I'm sure the heartworm was a small part of that [14:16] roger: OK do u want cash or wine? [14:16] mi: hah [14:17] mi: do you think I'd ever turn down wine? [14:17] roger: NOPE [14:17] mi: smart man (mostly not sarcastic since he's right about the wine) [14:18] roger: My mama didn't raise no idiot :P [14:18] roger: contrary to popular belief [14:19] mi: you play your part so well [14:20] roger: which one? the village idiot? lol [14:21] mi: every village needs an idiot. just wouldn't be the same without one [14:22] roger: it's easier to play dumb. Most people leave u be [14:28] roger: Glad u think so highly of me :P [14:28] roger: lol [14:29] mi: sometimes not playing dumb is just as off-putting [14:29] mi: and can you really blame me at this point? (really, why did he give me this opening? I'm so not in a mood to play nice for his self-esteem!) [14:35] roger: I think my problem is I don't give a [censored] which leaves me with very few friends [14:36] mi: There's an important distinction between not caring what the stupid masses think [14:36] roger: And that's the part of Me which I call the "playing dumb" [14:36] roger: True. [14:36] roger: I do care about some things. [14:36] mi: and sharing your likes and opinions and respecting your friends opinions [14:39] mi: I think having good friends is more important than having a lot of friends [14:39] roger: likewise\ [14:40] mi: But people aren't disposable. And you don't just cut them out of your life. [14:40] mi: Or just treat them like crap til they leave. [14:42] roger: Sure u can . People do it all the time [14:42] mi: That doesn't make it right [14:43] roger: True but right and possible are two different things [14:46] mi: True, but why would you ever expect that of someone? [14:47] roger: Expect them to just disappear? I don't expect them to go away. I usually push people out of my life that don't make me happy or are causing me grief [14:48] mi: Yeah, grand solution there
