Life and Stuff

Dogs are great companions and help too. They keep us good company, do away with loneliness and guard our homes. There are dogs which help in assisting and guiding disabled persons. Even autistic children are helped and guided by trained dogs. Dogs give them unconditional love and they play with these children despite their disabilities. By doing so they slowly make the children come out of their blues and melt downs and make them suitable to live in a society, bringing them to near normal lives. Dogs are loving and faithful too. Such a pet is loved by all. But what happens when we want to take them out in our expensive car? In the beginning they tend to play with the upholstery, biting and tugging at them, as a result totally spoiling the car seat. Nowadays washable car seat covers are available which allow your pet to ride comfortably and securely. While providing a good covering layer to your car seats these keep your pet also happy.

When I was younger I was hit by a van, the resulting injury was very minor considering all the possibilities and I’m grateful. The physical therapy that followed however, some of the worst moments of endurance and human will. I had injured my foot, learning to walk again was extremely frustrating. You walk for the majority of your life and never really think about having not ever walked. So the second you loose that ability it becomes aggravating. The therapy is extremely slow as to not strain you, but everything in you just want’s to put that foot down and go on walking. To hold yourself back, patiently wait to build up strength and then relearn the proper walkign technique, absolutely difficult, especially with me being so impatient.

That’s right, I collect cels, just tiny sheets of plastic with paint on them, and I spend some primo money on them too. I’ve had quite a few people confused by why they make me so happy and why I continue to collect. Ultimately it’s that nostalgia of owning that frame, everytime someone sees that moment, I own it. It’s the ultimate form of collecting memorabilia, I mean everyone has the toys, the shirts, the food, but how many people can say they own the actual piece of history that went under the camera and is the reason all that merchandise exists? Plus no two cels are exactly alike, what you own is something unique and all your own, I couldn’t enjoy this hobby more.

I previously mentioned Sailor Moon. Back in it’s day it had quite the following, enough so that merchandise was rampant. Well with everything popular comes the knock-offs and bootlegs. I managed to stumble across an image online of the heroine dressed up as another popular character from the time with another character as the acutal merchandise. It was this weird hybrid mix-mash of 3 popular series and I couldn’ stop cracking up. My boyfriend who shares the same love for these oldie but goldie cartoons had the same reaction and it has kept us laughing on the ocassional mention. Absolutlely love the merchandise that makes the shelves sometimes.
