Does she keep either of you up at night? Or does she stop you two from having sex? What is his reasoning?

He says she pushes him out of the bed when I'm not looking and she does, haha! She definitely does not let him get anywhere near me. But she can go in her crate
For awhile.

I can sorta understand his side of things. It's interesting how often dogs don't let men near their wives in bed. I have had a couple like that. :D

My dogs sleep in crates outside the bedroom (although right on the other side of the wall) on memory foam beds. They both shed so much it is astonishing. If I were to let them in the bed it'd have a new fur quilt in a matter of hours. Not to mention one of the dogs has skin issues that make him smell of old cheese and leave behind oily residue. Sooo yeah. I've never really let a dog sleep in my bed, except for my Tika who had weeks to live due to cancer and figured she deserved extra spoiling.

As for the taxes thing, the reason I got charged was that my employer didn't take out any for state tax.. So while I was getting a larger paycheck, I had to pay up. My bf on the other hand got 8k back since he was in school earlier this year and had relocation expenses and loans to be paying... But, was nice to get that much back so we bought the new tv and love seat and are putting the rest into savings and paying school debt.

Ugh, I woke up dehydrated again. Seriously, any nurses in the area want to just put me on iv fluids because my stomach can't handle drinking that much water, and I can't keep sipping it while at work...

Gatorade? I hate Gatorade but I drink a half of one in the morning if I wake up with a headache. Also, adding lemon to water is supposed to help your body absorb it better.

Lol yeah, maybe I should add a baby food soak into my daily routine.

I can't really drink Gatorade.. The original ones are so syrupy and the light ones give me a headache from their artificial sweeteners.

I don't really like lemon water either. I do like chocolate milk though... And while it has electrolytes it does have a bit high of calories to just be chugging. Also with the recent heat wave it reminds me of Anchorman, "milk was a bad choice!"

Maybe I'll just have to get some lemonade instead and buy some watermelon. I hate drinking water but juice and fruits I love :p

First world problem... Complaining how boring clean water is.

You won't have the same varieties, but even here at our local WalMart there is always some type. Not sure what country the current crops would be from.

Well, I remember him, however, I never liked his music. I loved the tv show, Ozzie and Harriet.
