Yups! I went to Tractor Supply for the first time in my life to buy dog food yesterday. (I had to walk several miles through a dark city-like environment and under an overpass at night by myself while my parents watched a soccer game to get there... I don't know how you city folks are able to survive *shudders*) Tractor Supply Co. is such an awesome store; I was afraid it would be more like Kohls and I'm so glad that I was wrong.

I love tractor supply!!! They have so much cool stuff, whether you actually need it or not! Did you have to carry a big bag of dog food home?!? Can't wait til you get Yukon! You're so close!!!

Haha fortunately I didn't have to carry it home (it would've been like a 5-10 hour walk from my house) My parents came to pick me up after their game. Although I'll be going back there again soon! xD

11 days, 16 hours, and 58 minutes to go... @____@

It's best not to actually countdown

But I need to spend my time doing something outside of school! If I'm not staring at the countdown then I'm either working or playing video games. Maybe there is a more constructive way to spend that time... ;-;

Playing games is a pretty constructive time spender...

I mean. If you like watching the minutes tick by, by all means, continue watching! I know when I was waiting it was a huge benefit to not count down..just made everything to more slow..and be more agonizing.

Well I can't imagine a slower or more agonizing way to pass the time than pre-calculus, so it's a step up from that at least. I like going to sleep then seeing how much time has passed when I wake up (then proceed to get depressed when it's not a million seconds. ) I should play some more games or read books though. Movies also sound like a good idea... :o

Reading books is good! Movies isn't too bad either.

Definitely! I have a whole list of books that I want to read so maybe I should take some out at the library tomorrow... Or I could just read more school books and get ahead in Lit/History (I'm halfway through Beowulf currently.)

Beowulf wasnt bad.. I liked it. You need to read enders game if u havnt yet before the movie comes out in a few days!

Good idea, I'll do that if I have the time. :o

Oh yes! Enders game is AMAZING and so is the rest of the series! If you're like me, you'll blow through enders game in a matter of days... That reminds me, I need to read it again before I go see the movie!

Edit - if you don't mind e-reading, you can get it for $3.98 from b&n right now.

Nah, I wont pay for it when I work at the library and can borrow it for free.

Well there's still no 7 week old pictures... But on the bright side there's only about 101 hours to go!

I was looking for them too but didn't see any. What a bummer!

Not too long now. Just a few more days and you'll have your little ball of fluff! I am so excited for you!

Yay, so close! Please post LOTS of pics of his car ride home and at home, they grow up so fast and I wanna see him! <3

Will do, although thanks to the death of daylight savings I might not get too many pics of the ride home (I'll need to have the flash on and that may or may not startle him... I'll at least get one or two though )

I'm going Friday Aidan, I can get a picture for you if you want

Oh yes please, that would be awesome! I don't want to sound greedy but a size comparison picture between Yukon and Caoimhe would also be really cool if possible ( to see how much they grow in 4 weeks) xD

I should probably stop being lazy and start a scrapbook for Yukon now... .__.

I'm taking Layla on Friday for her shots, too! What time will you be there? I'll be arriving at 10 a.m.

I won't be down there at 4:30 too bad!! I can't wait to see if Caoimhe recognizes Roxanne and Gienah

Aw, bummer! We will have our chance to reunite the sisters soon enough, though, I hope! We should really set something up for before the holidays kick into full gear.

I'm excited to see if Layla will get a chance to see her mom and sister again, too. She got a quick glance of them when we took her home just before we got in the car and she was going nuts, so maybe those memories will come back! I'll try to sneak some photos of the little 'uns and Arrow too.

By the by, I was looking back at photos from when we took Layla home and it's just amazing how fast she's grown. I wish they stayed small for longer! She almost doubled her size in just three weeks!

I know. Aidan, look at the difference of the girls from 8 weeks to now. It's crazy. Liz- I will pm you my number and we can work something out. We'll be going to NJ for Thanksgiving so maybe on the way home we could stop?

(Virtual high five to anyone who understands the reference.)

This is how I felt this morning. Although now it's nighttime so I need to try and fall asleep soon. The keyword of course is try. :/

Good luck! I don't think I slept much the night before getting Yuki. I wasn't able to get her until evening either so the whole day ticked by what seemed like forever D: Don't forget we want PICTURES!
