My 18yr old 9lb ball of machismo was put to sleep .Any ideas on constructivly dealing with loss?

My 18yr old 9lb ball of machismo was put to sleep . My little miniture pinscher . He never knew his size . He was not mean or malicious but he loved to play . He would play with pitbulls and rottweilers .

Sometimes he would make cute little "monkey-pig" sounds .

Sometimes he would sound like a cross between Daffy and Donald Duck when he was play growling .

A vacume cleaner to him was the terminator and his mission in life was to slay vacume cleaners.

Phrases that come to mind with him are: "Now your playing with power , portable pinscher power" or "sick , attack , kill be cute .......well at least he got one of em right "

My son renamed him from Schwartzkoft to Geeker . He had a midlife name change .My son could not say Schwartzkoft and called him geekoff by mistake . I think my sons mother put him up to it . He was a geek , a nerd and a clown .

When ever my son ca

I had this really really bad nightmare. I was at some guy's house (in the dream) and when I walked into the livingroom, I saw this little girl (she was about 4 years old) in a cage. It was made out of plexi-glass, and she was locked it. She looked so innocent. I asked why she was in there, and the guy said, "She's a monster! You musn't let her out. She threw a girl her age down the stairs. She chokes people. She's a demon!" Anyway, the guy and I start talking, and I keep looking at this girl. She kept looking at me like she was sad, and I went over to the cage...but then I saw something in her eyes that I didn't like, and I said, "I'm not EVER letting you out!" So she gets mad, and she starts making this really scary face...and then she starts kicking the door of the cage. She somehow gets out, and she starts coming towards me! I grab her by the neck, and pin her on the floor, and I start choking her. She looks at me and says,
"You will never get away from me! I will take over your children! You can't run away from me!"

Anyway, it was at this point that I woke myself up by screaming. I started crying, and I felt something in the room...I was frozen with fear.

I had my IQ test today , then turned out to be having fees ... !

so I ignored it, then they suddenly e-mailed me with a "free result thing" , it turned out to be 107 ... 38 questions , 30 minutes , 20 seconds for each question or get penalty ...

now , knowing that english is not my mother tongue , and I didn't actually understand 3 questions ... -I guessed them-
is this particularly Low ..?
does this mean I am a dumb slow thinking mammal .. ?

Lol I know I can calculate faster than others, but I kinda mess up with judging situations and thinking up ahead... ^ ^

p.s. calculating for me is not + and - , its multiply and divison with fractional and real numbers ,
I am not showing off , but I am proud all that stupid multiplication tables I did when I was still a child came with a result ... = P

I can't even explain the frustration of being smart. I don't like how my brain is able to comprehend and soak up information like a sponge. I don't understand how I can remember every single thing I have ever learned and never forget, while most people have the opposite problem. Intellectually I have never been challenged in any area of my life. Its frustrating, everything in life is so boring, so mundane. In college I expected to find people like myself, with extreme intelligence. And I haven't. People notice when you're a freshman taking senior level courses and your doing better than everyone in the course (especially if the professor announces it), the attention is awful and I feel that everyone secretly despises me, but I'm not going to lower my grades just to ruin my future. I don't like how I hear people whispering about me, pointing at me saying, "look there's that smart girl".

Imagine you're forced to spend 24h as someone of the opposite gender. You'd have to find a temporary job, no one will recognize you, and you'll spend those days under a presumed, forged, identity.
What will you do?

I've never had a long term relationship b/c I don't really bealive that two people could stay together more than two or three months, and, to be honest I don't want to get involved.
Now, the point is that all my friends, and especially my family are always critisizing me because of that. Sometimes they become so enoying.
I know that a real relationship might be so ok, but who can ensure me that he'll never cheat on me or ever deceive me?
And, moreover, many men that I've met are so interested in how i look that i wonder whether they ever appreciate me for the way i am not for the image they've created into their minds?

I've taken a couple of silly online tests that ask if you like coffee. It probably doesn't mean anything but some people say there's some psychology behind those silly tests. So why are your feelings for coffee and sex supposed to be the same?


For the record I used to hate coffee before I tried some flavored kind, lol.

The way to improve the economy is through tax cuts, not tax increases. Tax cuts work because it give employers of small businesses and even large, the ability to pay their employees a higher salary and create more jobs. If you begin to tax the so called "rich business owners" they will not take a cut in their own salary, but rather lay off workers or decrease wages. Also giving money back allows more opportunities for investment in the market and spending in general. Increasing taxes would discourage a person from starting their own business because the risks would greatly outweigh the potential rewards.

In addition to hurting the economy, redistributing wealth through taxes is simply un-American and anti-capitalism. What people like Hillary Clinton want to do is a direct play from the communist book in Soviet Russia.

Because of feminism, single guys these days have suffered the expense of having to spend much more money on hired dosmestic help than when wives were expected to automatically arrive on the alter like char women with a broom, a dustpan, a sewing kit and her mother's cookbook.

Is it a normal reaction to cry when yous see a video of your life starting when you were a baby? I wanted to take back those years, to re-do all the old wrongs. I cried. I could not help it. Seeing myself grow up before my eyes. I am young, but I only imagine this feeling gets worse as time goes by.

Since the feminist movement you have all the girly-men bending over backwards to please women day in and day out. It was these girly-men who gave women the rights they have NOW.

Are women satisfied? NOPE.. they disrespect men all day and manipulate them for their own ends. Yet, still complain. Todays women are selfish, can't cook, have macho attitudes, yet expect to get good men.

Ok women.. you've had a good 40-70 year run with YOUR issues. Now its time to get back in the house and start pleasing men again. I'm tried of meeting the same old useless women. After a while sex gets old and you want something more. Like a good houswife who is in it for the FAMILY and not HERSELF.

Ok this was about a year ago but im new to answers & thought id ask.I was still asleep but it was morning & the curtains were drawn it was relatively dark in the room.I was having a dream in which 2 psycologists/docters were sat talking about a patient a girl who looked abit like me sat in the corner of the room..the first docter asks the other "how do you know shes evil" the other replies "I saw the evil in her eyes"..then it shows the girl she slowly looked up & she had a real piercing evil gaze..at that moment I could feel an energy infront of my head(you know like when you hold a pen between the middle of your eyes & can feel it) something in my brain woke me and forced me to open my eyes.there was something pitch black across half of my face watching me like it was putting the nightmare inside my head..then very quicky I heard a noise like the sound a horse makes galloping away. and I actually felt hooves on my covers at first I thought a cat was in my room but it wasn't.
