people that send me text messages with things like.....hw r u doin or things like that. Honestly is it that big of a deal to type 5 extra letters for those three words. It makes me want to punch things and most of the time i dont respond to texts like that.

That our dog has been limping the last couple months....it's very sporadic, sometimes she'll limp for a few minutes then seem fine, or she'll limp for an hour or two before she's back walking "normally". Other days she doesn't have a problem at all....
So we went for her annual exam yesterday and the doctor thinks there's an issue with her left hip and her right knee. She's only a few months over 2 years old, so the doctor isn't sure of what's wrong, maybe hip dysplasia or arthritis with her hip...
Maybe an issue with her knee cap or torn ACL with her knee....
Either way, we're taking her back next week for more tests and x-rays....really hoping it's just a strained muscle and nothing more serious....she's a good dog.

Don't ever come to Rutgers. The initials are "RU" and EVERY advertiser thinks it's INCREDIBLY clever to use that on posters that say things like "RU Hungry?" It's a good thing there are rarely babies on campus because I'd constantly be punting them.

So... how's the pooch?
Don't know yet, she goes in tomorrow....the limping is still sporadic.
Thanks for asking, I'll post when we know more.

YES. I'm with you guys. (don't get me wrong, every now and then I'll shorten a word when texting or typing, but not whole sentences like that).
I especially hate the pre-movie message at our local theater telling people to silence their phone and not text during the movie.
During the minute-ish long ad they use about every shorthand text phrase known to man... LOL, L8R, K, THX, LMAO, ROFL, emoticons and so on...how about a simple message that says "turn off your phone or else we'll kick you out".
No wonder school-age kids can't spell properly....because they see advertisers using "text speak" in their ads and think it's ok to spell like this... sigh

My mom has two Yorkie Terriers and one of them is a running fool. She has a problem that sounds similar to your dogs condition. Apparently some dogs hips can go out of joint when they run. I guess they can go back in by themselves sometimes too. The vet tried to pet hers back in but the dog didn't want him to continue so he stopped. Told my mom that it was fine and that they may go back in themselves and to just be aware that the dog has that condition so to try and keep the running down as much as possible. I guess it is sort of like a sprain or something. It is somewhat painful when doing that certain thing, but other then that it is not painful for the dog. Hope everything works out for her.

Thanks for the info, Doug - I didn't know that the hip could "pop in-and-out" randomly like that, and while I'm not glad to hear about this condition, I am glad you brought it up and also that the vet was able to diagnose the issue with her Yorkies.
Hopefully ours is an "easy" diagnosis and fix like this as well...
I hate catching a cold. I started getting a sore throat and it's now a full on sniffles cold. I hate it!!
So now I don't even want to think about a cigar. Well, I do but I seriously doubt I could enjoy one.

HAHAHA. I literally LOL'd when i read that. Damn, now i did it. I guess i have to punch myself, or maybe ill reenact the bathroom scene from Liar, Liar.

Just reviewed the x-rays with the vet and the "pooch" has at least a partially, if not fully, torn ACL and will be needing knee surgery on at least 1 knee. She has signs of arthritis on both knees and 1 hip.
It sounds like the arthritis should be manageable, but since she's only 2 our regular vet didn't want it to go untreated.....
So we're going to schedule an appointment with the orthopedic vet/clinic to get their second (more expert) opinion and talk about options ...

My sincere thank you for your concern. The poor girl has been groggy and loopy since we brought her home because they had her under some anesthesia and pain meds for the x-rays/evaluation today...
so she's been dozing in and out of sleep for the past 7 hours, and has had a couple accidents on the couch while she was sleeping :-( .... oh well, the couch can be cleaned. we just feel awful since she's so "out of it" and doesn't really know what's going on still.
We have an appt scheduled with the orthopedic vet next tuesday and will know more then.
Waking up early on a Saturday to take a GRE (like the SAT for grad school) after having studied my butt off to try and prepare only to wait for an hour and a half due to computers crapping out and then leaving with no test. Now I have to jump through hoops to reschedule.

If I hear something I will not go back to sleep.
