This pretty much says it all. Back when I was really into the gym nothing would stop me. If something came up that day I would set my alarm and go at 4:30am when they opened. It was important to me back then.

I did however foster all the bunnies, iguanas, chinchillas, rats, etc. that came our way…I was like Ace Ventura minus the talking out of my butt kind of thing. :P But week after week Butter was still there. Other than the fact that he was half pit bull I did not understand why no one wanted him. And each week he slowly chipped at my heart. So I decided that if no one took him that day, then the next week he would be mine. My shift ended at 2pm and I got a call from the woman … [Read more...]
