HE'S PRETTY MUCH A GIANT NOW

Hello there! If you have been reading my blog, which I'm aware I've pretty much forgotten by now.you'll know that 7 months ago I rescued a stray.
I'm very happy to inform that he's healthy now, and pretty much a giant. He's incredibly big by now.
It hasn't been easy at all.
He's got the time to destroy pretty much his whole room and every single bed, or toy that we've given him.
He doesn't get along with his brothers, not because of him, but because of one of my other dogs.
Anyways, he's the sweetest fella, and I'm really happy that I rescued him.

NEW PUP AT HOME

Gosh! It turns out I haven't written absolutely anything in a year, and not because I didn't want to, it's just that I didn't know how or where to begin.
So, although I may, or may not eventually write about last year, I'll definitely tell you about what's new.
Two weeks ago, while going to the store, I found a dog. Clearly a stray and malnourished, he was pretty much a sack of bones. Offered him food and he accepted without running away from me (which is something that has happened more than once) so I decided to give it a try and lure him home. It turns out he did actually follow me! 😱
So I took him home and to the vet. It turns out, he's a puppy (around 7 months old) he appears to be healthy (although he's got an infection on his snout and certain parasites from eating garbage, and definitely underweight)
 He's on meds now, eating 3 times a day and learning a couple of tricks.
I'm very happy I rescued him, I have to admit I wasn't used to having a puppy around anymore, both of my dogs are adults by now, but he's the sweetest little fella.
Hopefully it'll all work out, and we'll be a bigger family now.
Wish us luck!

TOO CUTE

I just came across this vid, and it's way too cute not to share it.
Hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did.

LOVE READING?

Throughout my life, I've always enjoyed reading.
I realize I have been neither the fastest nor the most consistent reader but I've always tried to do my best.
Since 2012 began, I have focused more on my reading and I've obviously been able to read more books, so I decided to join Goodreads (don't know why I haven't done it before)
I think Goodreads is an excellent way to get to know more authors and books, while having the chance to read other people's reviews, or to join a discussion.
If you enjoy reading, and your real life friends/acquaintances  are not really into reading, go try Goodreads.
Hopefully I'll see you there. You can find me as Karen A.

TIRED OF REALLY BAD LESBIAN MOVIES

I'm sure I've mentioned this many times before. I've always cared about gay movies, I try to help all the independent film makers by renting or buying movies, simply because I deeply believe as a community we need and deserve visibility.
I always think of a young girl or a young boy knowing deep inside that they're gay and not being able to talk about it, wondering if they're wrong, if they're sick. So by having a way to find yourself portrayed, or represented on screen can make you feel less lonely, you understand that you're not alone, that you're not the only one.
 So, this leads to this: I just watched a movie called "The Guest House" which is, how can I put it? really awful.
In my opinion the acting is quite bad, the movie is way too predictable, and the soundtrack is....so.....wrong on the love scenes, the music made me feel as if I were watching some sort of soft porn movie.
It's been a while since I felt like wanting my money back, but unfortunately this time it happened. I'm so relieved that I just rented the movie and not bought it.
So, if you happen to be on the business, and you're reading this, could you please keep this in mind? VISIBILITY yes - BAD MOVIES no. I mean if you already have a budget, why not make it a believable movie? And please forget about us lesbians saying I love you after a day together, that's just stupid and not real.
I'd deeply appreciate it.

Lip Service Series 2

It's been almost 2 years since I wrote a post about Lip Service. Having watched the last episode of Lip Service series 2, I can only say I hope there is a third series.I mean, how can you develop full story lines in only 6 episodes?

Back in series 1 we all fell in love with Sam aka Hot Cop, decided to pick teams between Cat/Sam or Cat/Frankie. Now in series 2 we have a very different Sam (obviously driven by rage, loss, and pain) yet we try to pick teams again between Lexy/Sam or Lexy/Tess. We get to see 2 main characters leave the show (I think Frankie could go back for a third series) And Tess, well she's always sweet, unfortunate in love Tess.

Don't get me wrong, by my saying this, I'm not implying I didn't like it, but series 2 was so dark, so different from the first one that I definitely felt I needed more episodes. Even if a third series were the last one, I think the characters and the viewers could get some sort of closure.

I really hope BBC Three, decides to have a third series.
