iconnu (1:15:56 AM):back
torasan (1:19:29 AM): mew mew :/
iconnu (1:17:05 AM):we had to go try to rescue a dog
torasan (1:20:44 AM): wow
iconnu (1:18:07 AM):I'll tell you the story later.
iconnu (1:37:43 AM):So.. the dog.
torasan (1:41:52 AM):<waits patiently>
iconnu 1:37:58 AM):So, we get back to the hotel and get up to our room.
iconnu (1:38:56 AM):We get changed for bed, and my mom goes out to smoke a cigarette.
iconnu (1:39:13 AM):And, she pops her head back in and says, "I thought I saw a dog run by.
iconnu (1:39:29 AM):"It looked like it was headed to the highway."
iconnu (1:39:42 AM):And, I said, "Well.. do you want to go look for it?"
iconnu (1:40:03 AM):And, she said, "Well.. yeah.. Yeah I do. But, if it's a pitbull, we're not picking it up."
iconnu (1:40:18 AM):And I say, "Let me go grab the keys."
iconnu (1:40:44 AM):So, we get in the car and take off down the road looking for this (maybe) dog. In our pajamas.
torasan(1:44:26 AM):<boggle>
iconnu (1:41:54 AM):And then, we see the dog. And it's this huge really cute blonde Labrador retriever. He's in the island on highway 305, but in the gutter sniffing at something, half in the street. So, I pull up next to the dog and put my flashers on and start calling to him.
iconnu (1:42:06 AM):The dog seems unsure of our intentions.
torasan1:42:52 AM):My mom gets into the snacks and finds some bread and breaks up a roll for me to try to get the dog's attention, but dogs do not appear to be that interested in WalMart wheat rolls. Which is a real shame, because those suckers are really good.
iconnu (1:43:56 AM):The dog crosses the street and crosses back before walking into the shoulder by this truck stop. My mom finds the turkey jerky in the back, and we get out some turkey jerky to try to get the dog to come over to the car, so we can read it's collar.
iconnu (1:44:05 AM):No dice.
torasan (1:47:20 AM):short version dear, its almost 2 here
iconnu (11:45:22 AM):So, my mom wants to call someone, but I'm not calling 911 for a dog, because I'm afraid we will get in trouble. So, we go into the truck stop in our pajamas and get the dispatch number for the police. We call and they say they will send someone out in the morning to look for the dog. The lady at the truck stop said she's seen him around over the last week but hadn't been able to get him to come to her.
iconnu (11:45:44 AM):So, we drove around some more looking for the dog, and we're going to go look again in the morning.
iconnu (11:45:47 AM):The end.
torasan (1:49:02 AM):you really shouldnt be running around in your pajamas
