Thank goodness for dogs

Dogs have a way of finding the people who need them, filling an emptiness we didn't even know we have.

No self mastery card today. It's my day off and the cards are at work - Just an unexpected visit from Vang, right when he was needed the most.

Here is another 'comedy of errors' scenario that some of you may find rather amusing. I developed what I call 'Runner's Rage' this afternoon. Had a rather emotional day so decided to go for a run to clear my head and I decided to try out the nearby golf course as they have heaps of footpaths. However I was stopped by security and firmly told I couldn't enter unless I was a member. Much arguing ensued. I politely swore at him. Got on my bike and rode around to the back entry which was abandoned. Got the club house parked and started my run. No more than 800m down the road I had a little lady in a golf buggy chasing after me telling me I can't run here. She didn't speak a word of English except 'No' so after much yelling and gesturing for me she told me to wait and she turned around in her cart and left. So.... I kept running .... I ended up with another two officials in another cart further down trying to tell me I can't run on the course. That it's too 'dangerous'.... Really?? I work with bears!!! I was furious!!!

All the anger I was trying to get rid of in my run came spewing out my mouth at these little Vietnamese men who really don't care about my safety but simply that I havn't paid a membership fee to be on their grounds..... No matter that we send ALL our VIP guests to their hotel to stay and always eat at their restaurant whenever we eat out here.... They tried to escort me back to the club house on the golf buggy! But I refused and said I would run back and took off before he could manage to say another word!
