ginger, my 14yr old Chihuahua thinks she is a 2 yr old kid. jumps on me or something every time I pick up an electronic device.
9:28 am
sprite

sounds like she is half cat :)
9:28 am
suefrad625

aren't all chihuahuas. lol
9:29 am
suefrad625

does anyone take Balance of Nature?
9:29 am
sprite

our dog is like that. And since we got him as a rescue, too scared to breathe, I cheer him on every time he lets me know he deserves my undivided attention :)
9:30 am
sprite

no idea what that is, sorry
9:30 am
hurshy

aww, the poor baby
9:30 am
suefrad625

I have one of those also! two foster failures.

Geo was so bad, he didn't sit next to hubby for 6 yrs
9:31 am
suefrad625

stil iffy around the kids
9:31 am
suefrad625

he is great with dogs, unless they spend too much time with Ginger, lol.
9:31 am
sprite

yeah it was heartbreaking. He was stiff as a board, too afraid to move even a muscle. Had been terribly abused. Now... he is a happy, playful, sometimes even headstrong dog. And the sweetest in the world.
9:31 am
suefrad625

he has NEVER bitten. just scared to fainting
9:32 am
sprite

awwww sue... poor baby
9:32 am
suefrad625

we love him.
9:32 am
rururocks

that's unusual for Chihuahuas they are biters
9:32 am
sprite

same with Nero. Never bit us once, not even feigning. Sweetest heart. I do not understand how people can be so cruel.
9:32 am
suefrad625

he takes such good care of Ginger. they are both elder dogs. My kids are coming to visit and bringing 5 dogs
9:33 am
sprite

quite the animal farm when they visit!
9:33 am
suefrad625

they all get along great. all are rescues, so they know what to do
9:34 am
suefrad625

people always amaze me with their cruelty
9:34 am
suefrad625

thank God
9:34 am
suefrad625

I don't ever want to understand their reasoning
9:34 am
sprite

amen
9:35 am
hurshy

well it seems like it's usually that they have not been loved well themselves, and/or have wonky brain wiring
9:36 am
sprite

that may be a reason but it will never be an excuse. Lots of people with horrible parents grow up to be loving adults.
9:37 am
suefrad625

amen
9:38 am
suefrad625

and that might even be the reason why they love
9:38 am

Was Kaplan alerting us about "paisan", and if so, why, given that it isn't even in the grid? It appears that it means "friend" in Italian, and according to Collins is used in British English to mean "a fellow countryman", and in the U.S. to mean "an Italian-American" (with no suggestion that it is considered offensive). But hey, I've learned something - though odds are I will forget.

paisana can be used to mean "a female peasant", which certainly could be offensive - and paisan itself is derived from a word for peasant.

Just looked up teraph, and that took me to Yahwism: "An ancient Semitic religion of the Iron Age, Yahwism was essentially polytheistic and had a pantheon, with various gods and goddesses being worshipped by the Israelites. At the head of this pantheon was Yahweh, held in an especially high regard as the two Israelite kingdoms' national god." (from Wikipedia) I had no idea.

The paisan was to give you an idea of the ethnic slur in the grid. That it could be a slur in itself is interesting. Has it been a slow chat day? I posted that hours ago.

I have news that I fear is too good to be true. Last week I applied to a 3 week artists' residency on Nantucket Sound, as accepted. I spoke with them and paid the tuition for 3 weeks of solitude, art-making and writing in solitude. Husband had to let it sink it that this did not include him.
