Dog Days

First of all: Happy Grey's Day!
Grey's Anatomy has been not what everyone expected it to be after returning from a thrilling finale. Everyone wanted more action, and wanted more death and drama. Instead, it did something I find brilliant and if this show doesn't receive Golden Globe nominations for Sandra Oh and Chandra Wilson and Best Drama... I'm going to boycott all award shows. And I love award shows. It makes you think. It makes these characters even more real then I already think they are. People died, people had guns held to their heads. People were asked to proclaim their professions, knowing they might die... and some lied, and survived, and others just missed death by an inch. No one, would be okay after something like that, what makes you think they should be too? So there's my Grey's rant :)
To update all:
-Figure Skating is going splendidly. Haven't started skating yet, but coming up with Ice Show themes and ideas and music and all of it is just so exciting! I"ve only ever been IN the shows so it's just a great twist to have the shoe on the other foot. Not going to lie, it's tiring.... I want everything to be perfect, I want to impress and be prepared, so I'm trying to think of everything.. I"m trying to remember everything from past Ice Shows... hard to believe it's exhausting... but it so happens to be.
Last Friday my Grandma's father died. It's a good thing. It's something that's been going on for 4 years. In and out of hospitals at least every other weekend. It's good his suffering is done and my grandma is able to rest easy. It's my last Great Grandparent and that happens to be a very strange feeling. I only have 1 grand parent left too, so this whole idea of death, of close family members has only been introduced to me in the last 4 years. I"m shockingly not a fan.
In this whole, death of the great grandparent, I've been put in charge of watching the dog during the day. As most and some of you know, I don't really like this dog. It's a strange dog, and all of you who have had the pleasure of meeting her know, this is possibly an understatement. She's not a normal mix of dog, she happens to be more like a 2 year old mixed with a 80 year old man. But don't ask me her actual mix, I can't remember and in all honesty, find describing her as a human makes much more sense,considering she's treated like one. Most of my family say it's jealously, some actually understand that she should just be treated, like a dog.. and shouldn't have to have someone here at the house, 24/7 without having an anxiety attack (and yes, she does have those, and yes she does poo and pee everywhere when that happens, and yes, she does it in sneaky places your foot would never guess to look) So as much as I love being with this dog all day, she much more calm when you have the upstairs TV, downstairs computer and my mom's TV on all at the same time, to give the illusion someone who likes her is somewhere in this house and or neighborhood. If I every become a psychologist, my first paper will be written about this dog. Katie-Bit Hubbell. (Yes, she has a middle name, which I'm not going to lie, I would do as well) I understand the sense of family and how dogs and cats and other animals become family, but believe me, until you meet this dog, you don't get it.
*One of my best friends Jeannine is engaged and I couldn't be happier for her!  
-Also, this was an article by the Daily Journal (the local International Falls newspaper) http://www.ifallsdailyjournal.com/news/community-news/statistics-show-help-needed-area-kids-katie-kolt-hall-staff-writer-110
    I don't want to say this is obvious, and I don't want to say our school system here in the Falls is bad, but... it's not great.
  So hope you all have a day of wonderfulness! Watch Greys! Even if you've never seen it before... just so you can tell me what you think. And if your able to, go to the trevorproject.org to see what you can do to stop the in my opinion, not so current wave of LGBT suicides. Regardless if you agree with the lifestyle, youth ending their lives because of bullying and others ignorance, isn't right.
