World AIDS day

I was looking around for my favorite poem about AIDS but..I can't find it to save my life. Whatever...I do have a cafepress store that sells items to get the word out about HIV AIDS, its linked on the right over there, check it out, good stuff.

Here's a link to my story. Tells it pretty well I think. My feelings about HIV, If someone tells you they are HIV+ here's a good way to deal with it. And finally, here's some truth about the disease.

Now onto updates on my life. Buddy is doing much better, he's back to his playful, eating, puppy self. We went and got Lily her booster shots just in case, so she's all updated and feeling good. Its been raining here and the dogs DO NOT like the rain. Which sucks because then they have indoor accidents...*sigh*

We did get out for a walk today in spite of the rain. Buddy did well, Lily was a bit pissed off to be out in the rain but they did good.

Yesterday as we were driving about we were coming home and saw a dog running down the side of the road. I really wanted to stop, we live on a busy street! Thats how we ended up keeping Buddy however so...we didn't stop. The dog had a collar on so we hoped that someone else would stop and get him/her. I guess no one did because we were going for our walk today and he was dead on the side of the street. I just...my god. Am I the only one who cares for animals!?

I'm excited, D and P are coming over tonight. They won some money on a scratch it and they're spending all of it on soaps! Turns out that the amount they want to spend is exactly how much soap I have left. Crazy no!? I'm stoked because that means everything I need for Christmas presents will be fresh.
