gub'ment

today i left my place of employment at 9:45 am, where i just happen to be extremly busy, to go get banger. i have waited in eager anticipation of the day arriving. i had my $75 bucks in my pocket. a and mr p rode with me. we were already to adopt the new baby puppy ...my birthday dog!

we were greeted by lit'l miss pissy at the front desk of othe subsidary to the county dog pound known as their "adoption center". it is where you can find animals that have moved from the stray/abandoned cells to these pretty nice cages..with beds even...that look ever so nice to the public. everything was going okay until ms pissy tells us banger is not available for adoption because she has to pass a medical, get spayed, and get her shots. and that she may not be available for about 7 days or so. now that sounds reasonable, however, it is NOT what i was told on friday. and when i tried to 'splain it to her, well she thought she was smarter that me. tired of being nice, i got in her face and told her that she ain't right. then i got a and mr. p and we trudged across the grass to the redemption center [eyeroll] there, while a and mr. p went to find banger, i found the officer in charge of the desk. look these guys are just like the rest of the gub'ment representatives. they don' give a rat's ass about those animals and less about us publics that come in. what gets me is we that are going there to get a dog out pay far more that the jackasses that are bringing their animals in because 'they don't want them any more' [yes, i heard a real live idjit say that] $20 bucks. something is extremely wrong with this system. and a has her own opinion that these gub'ment workers should be out there door to door collecting licensing fees. not a bad idea, but considering the 10 employees county wide...that is quite impossible. and so the cycle goes on. very sad indeed.

in the end, here's the deal. banger has to pass a medical and IF she qualifies she must be spayed. county law. and when she comes back from the surgery (they ship them by the truck load to fresno for the procedure because there are only two vets on staff with the county [shaking head] she gets her rabies. now if she passes the medical a staff person is to call me the night before banger's surgery and i will be able to pick her up the she is returned from fresno. yeah that is how it goes. from what the official officer of the day say, banger is first on today's list for the process. [yay?] so i am thinking maybe thursday but don't place bets on this. only that i will get banger sooner or later. she is my birthday dog!!

i went to see her before i left. she is much more nervous today and told me she can't wait to blow the joint. i told her i would be back soon, don't give up hope, she is MY dog, and to stay away from the tattooists.

THEN a and mr p calls my attention to a little tiny little chi-wa-wa [i don't spell spanish and only can say bad words] it was one -1- month old. a very happy little pup. but it didn't have the earrings on that it was wearing when it was brought to the facility a few days ago. oh so very sad. some one had PIERCED that dog's ears!!!! it had fake (i am sure) diamond earrings...like 1/4 karat size.
