GW Exotic Animal Park

I want to go here: The GW Exotic Animal Park

Not many people know this about me, but when I was little I wanted to be a veterinarian. I brought all kinds of animals home and asked to keep them. My parents were real troopers cause I can think of at least 7 dogs that I found and asked to keep...not to mention the one that I have now, or the cats we rescued while I was in college. Then I changed it to a Zoologist because I wanted to go and play with big cats and call it "research". I even picked out an animal reserve in Texas that I wanted to work for. I had big goals...but somewhere along the line I figured it'd be easier to get a job as a small animals vet. Then I discovered that you have to put animals to sleep in that profession and switched my career path to nursing. But I still have this urge to go and play with a baby tiger...well today I found out that one of my friends has done just that. She played with a baby TIGER!! I am so jealous. and I SO want to go to this park! Who is with me?!?!?

Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper

My dad was in a play that depicted Leonardo da Vinci's painting "The Last Supper" it was an interesting play and my dad did a GREAT job! Who would have known that we is actually a pretty decent actor??

My favorite part was the last scene where Jesus announces that someone will betray him and everyone strikes their pose like in the original painting... I wish I had gotten a picture of it, but here's a replica of the original painting so that you get the idea

The Stare Down

Roscoe is slightly dangerous with his cone on his head...really its more like a satellite dish. Kelly is giving him the "you'd better not do that" look, and he is staring her down.

I think we've reached the "terrible two's" age...pray for us!

The Last Supper

I woke up this morning and took Roscoe out to pee and started freaking out cause he had some swelling near his surgical site that looked really bad. I threw him in the car and drove all the way to Milledgeville (yes his vet is 30 minutes away, great vet, but moments like this make me rethink the decision to see him). I get to the vet and of course the swelling looks better by then and Roscoe is acting normal around them so they just give me a cone collar thing. It kinda felt like a waste of a drive, but this morning just proves that I've already subconsciously decided to keep the dog. even if he does hate me for putting this cone around his head.

I also had some friends come hangout for my birthday! and it seemed like everywhere we went there was a picture of The Last Supper...it was a little strange...

except for this one...this one was in a Catholic Church, so I kinda expected it to be there.

Castrate

Roscoe had his manhood taken away today. I literally almost started crying when I saw him after his surgery. He just stood there staring at the wall and when I finally got him to move he walked/limped half crookedly to the car...poor boy is exhausted...and probably a little pissed off.

and really who can blame him? I mean some of the definitions of the word castrate are: to emasculate; to deprive of strength, power, or efficiency; to weaken. geld (to take strength, vitality, or power from; weaken or subdue.) and lets be honest folks...the reason for fixing animals kinda is to "subdue" them....

Anywho, I found out that Roscoe is 14 months old and 35 pounds...so he won't get much bigger! probably just gain a little weight is all! He's like the perfect size! Still not sure what kind of dog he is though
