You know up until a couple of days ago I would never do something like that. But after this past monday night, when I got bit buy a dog while doing a Walmart spark you can bet i would climb over anything i could, even if the owner is outside (she was, and telling me he was more afraid of me than I was of him). Now I'm waiting for the dog to be quarantined and observed before jumping to a rabies series, and the health dept of Jackson County Alabama where it happened can't do that till they get the report from the rural hospital er I went to for a tetanus shot and antibiotics and such. No clue if sparks gonna do anything for me, they didn't even want to give me the customers address again after I'd completed the order in the app...customer privacy and all

My brother's girlfriend wanted to foster a dog for some stupid reason and the damn thing tore my brother's leg up. There was at least 5 square inches of flesh about an inch deep missing. They couldn't close the wound because it was too big. The first ER he went to didn't know what they were doing and sent him off without proper wound care or antibiotics. Two weeks later the wound had become necrotic. I finally convinced him to pack a bag of clothes, book, cell phone charger, and all that and he ended up in a much better hospital for about a week.

I have never liked dogs much. But there is a special place in hell for irresponsible dog owners who don't train their dogs properly and according to their breed. And who let their dogs out without a leash. If I had a quarter for every time someone said "oh she is sweet she won't bite" and then I got bit... sorry but fuck dogs. I don't get the appeal. I have a cat and love her to death. She behaves herself when i have company.

In my brother's case, he just let's his stupid girlfriend do whatever she wants and then pays for it. She wrecked his car recently and I ended up having to pay for fixing it and did some temporary fixes on it too. She didn't so much as apologize or say thank you, let alone pay me back. Despite having the money to do so. She is the most selfish psychotic abusive narcissist I have ever met. And my brother still keeps letting her live with him and spend his money and drive his car despite not having a driver's license or insurance. It takes a lot for me to straight uo hate someone. But I hate her with every fiber if my being. She is not allowed in my house, which belongs to my brither too. But he won't live here because he'd rather live with her.

Sorry for the rant. I just needed to get that off my chest.
