Well guys I know that I has been a while in between installments. I am so sorry that my reaching out to you has been sporadic. I have just been trying to adjust to an amped up schedule as well as NEVER seeming to be able to get enough rest!!!! I wanted to take this time out however to reconnect and provide some sort of an update. The most important thing in my life at this moment is my recently becoming a PARENT. Yes...it's true JayLuv...the shoe shopping,bed and party hopping, face of Atlanta Frivolity has joined the ranks of countless others becoming a parent to a deliteful Chihuahua. This may come as a surprise to some, but being a parent really is not that much of a stretch for me. I have had dogs all my life, not only that, but I worked for many years with the Humane Society, caring for everything from the BIGGEST of Rottweilers to the smallest of Dachshunds (which actually was the breed to give me my first dog bite). I LOVE dogs, and always have, but in the last year I just felt that I wanted to focus more on me, and attending events as well as my work. As the days rolled by I felt that something was missing. Since I knew that something was NOT a man.. I surmised that it was time to hear the pitter patter of little feet in my flat... I worried incessantly about weather the little fellow or girl would totally trash my little house, eating my shoes and clawing at rugs, leaving it's little gifts in the form of urine and feces EVERYWHERE... I worried if this baby would cry, whine, bark too much and make me want to throw him/her out my window.. I worried worried, and worried. Then I began the search. I knew in the back of my mind that I wanted a Chihuahua... having had others in the past and absolutely adoring the breed...I scoured the Internet... Craigslist becoming my constant friend... Daily I devoured the ads hungrily looking for my Chihuahua... with NO luck.... I mean NONE.. I answered 2 ads for what promised to be little bundles of Chihuahua joy... when what they ended up being were OVERPRICED stunts! One ad assured that by purchasing this woman's Chihuahua you would find your "forever pet"...What she neglected to share was that this Chihuahua was a canine FLUZY.... After grilling this woman who added up to an Internet Chihuahua PIMP.. I found that she "took" this hapless whore of a female dog from someone else, that the dog may or may not have been pregnant... from about 4 or 5 different men... When asked if miss hot pants WAS indeed preggers...this woman says to me... "Well I know when I got her that my friend said she might be pregnant.. a Miniature Schnauzer had her, and then also a Poodle.. I know for sure that my Yorkie got to her, then there was that Dachshund, and the Jack Russell next door..not mention another Chihuahua had her and also the Papillon up the street.." After that..I couldn't even continue to follow the conversation as I saw that this Chihuahua was the doggie equivalent of Vanessa Del Rio (don't know who she is??? GOOGLE HER idiot) gang banging her way across America! Not wanting to have some knocked up whore of a Chihuahua in my home.. I promptly passed on her and moved on. There was one ad that really stood out to me, a frantic person in Kennesaw GA HAD to get rid of 2of her Chihuahuas due to a growing family and...of course THE RECESSION (is the recession responsible for EVERYTHING in the world???) I answered this ad.. knowing that THIS was going to be pay dirt for me.. and that I had found...my baby. I spoke with this woman at length with her explaining that she had a veritable menagerie, and that regulations in the area that she resided would not permit her to keep ALL of her pets in addition to the mounting costs. So I agreed to meet her..just to see which one of the Chihuahuas I wanted.. If any. I set out after work to meet her on an unusually BLISTERING Friday. It was LOVE at first sight. I saw him.. and he was absolutely the most adorable thing that I had EVER seen. I took him immediately.. We have been in LOVE EVERY SINCE..and there's nothing more to do and nothing else to say. I wondered WHAT TO NAME MY SON??? Thinking back over the years and people that really are special to me.. I decided to name him after one of my idols second and INSANELY rich husband... ARISTOTLE ONASSIS. As most know, I am a Diana Ross fan as well... I could not figure how I would fit her into this equation.. Well not to worry...I dubbed thee ARISTOTLE ROSS ONASSIS.. Being a parent this time around has been a complete joy. I love the getting up at 5:30 each morning to get him outside,fed, and taken care of before I dash out to the office each day. I love the coming home after a LONG day and taking him to the park DAILY for exercise and quality time.. The caring for him before I can get myself ready to go to sleep.. And when I SLEEP... I SLEEP!!! He is just an absolute joy to have around.. the other night while I was writing.. he peeked my way..strolled over ever soo slowly and crawled into my lap...only to fall asleep there.. Having him is a JOY... I have fallen in LOVE WITH ARISTO R. ONASSIS...
