Damn, what a shitfest of a day.

Whenever i got a bunch of failure going on in my life, i just download some standup comedy shows, go play football with friends, talk with my friends and mom about it, and a week later life is back on track.

Don't know how that helps you, but anyway, i feel for you man.

Didn't he also lose his job at that point, or was that a different life crashing down I can't breath and I must scream bent?

Why did the dog die Mana? It sucks :( The vets couldn't save him? And the other dogs not eating - yeah it happens. Try to change their surroundings/ environment for a week or so.

It happened fast. He stopped eating, was very lethargic, and was drooling. The day I was going to take him in I went outside to get him and found him dead against the fence :'(

Parvo was one theory, but when a dog has that their eyes are vacant and his weren't. I found some yarn in the back yard and it's possible he swallowed some of that. A black widow bite is another possibility.

The other dogs are ok. One ate this morning, but the other barely touches his food. They'll eat milk bones and halves of hotdogs (they're small dogs) so their appetite is fine. They also aren't lethargic like the pup was. The one not touching his food much was inseparable from the pup.

The Indian Casino up the street from me is hiring for the same position I was just laid off from so I applied. It's much closer so if I get it that'll be good.

Seriously dude, have you thought about maybe reschooling yourself or something? Constantly losing jobs and ending up with pennies in the bank and a dark road ahead just can't be the best possible option here.

Also, never buy pets. I made that decision a long time ago. Done with that

Since you still have your job I don't feel like an arse saying this, 'Why the hell do you have 3 dogs?' In you position you should be thinking about downscaling you lifestyle.

Come on, man. Even if you think that's true there's no need to shit up a thread just so you can prove to yourself that you're a stone cold hardass with a chip on his shoulder.

The guy has had a rough day and even if some of it is empty sympathy at least this thread shows that some of us do care and hope the guy pulls through. Sometimes in life that's all you need to keep going.

Who the fuck cares what Powerslave has to say about anything?

see I would own T FAG right now but it wouldn't be fun since he hides behind his 'I have Powerslave on ignore' excuse (even though he reads every single one of my posts) because he got tired of getting owned by me all the time. An easy way to brush off all ownage is to pretend it never happened and deliberately ignore it.
