Tired in every which way

The dog's being put down on Tuesday.

Technically,  Mum's taking him into the vet for their "opinion" and, if they think he'd be better off dead, they're going to do it right then.  But there's really no doubt that they're going to want to euthanize him.

I thought he died a couple nights ago.  He kept coming and sitting in my room and he never comes down this end of the house.  In the morning he was still alive, although he had taken an explosive shit all over the new room.

We're not telling Kerry yet.  She's 16 months younger than me, but Mum's waiting until Monday to tell her, and somehow the point that she's the youngest is very important in that decision.  I don't quite follow her logic, but whatever.

It's kind of a relief.  Mum won't be asking me what I think we should do anymore.  And I was starting to get worried that they would do it while I was at Northeastern.  So I'd get a phone call saying "Oh, by the by, we killed Rex", or come home for winter break and he'd just not be there anymore.

Fuck.  I hate this.  If anything, pets teach you not to get attached to anyone or anything cuz they all leave you.

Fuck.

I want someone to make me feel better.

If one of these doesn't make you laugh, then look harder.
