Ok. Seriously? Breeders are CRAZY.<\/p>\n

The ultrasound hasn’t even been done yet and I’ve talked to this one 4 times. Sweet wonderful guy.. but he talked to my husband and asked to have me call him back today. I do.. and its like crickets on the other end. It’s painfully obvious the guy didn’t have anything to say and wasn’t really serious when he told brian to have me call him back. <\/p>\n

And what is terrible about this conversation is that it feels obvious that we don’t really have anything to say to each other beyond what has been already said. So it’s just chit chat, which makes me feel terribly fake and insincere. The guy wants me to bring all the questions and honestly.. if he’d bother to read my application and my blog, he’d see that I’m incredibly researched and really don’t have any questions beyond what i’ve asked him already. He did have to reiterate that there are 39 applicants for this breeding.. but then he reassured me that there are a few that are 20-somethings who live in an appartment with 3 room mates and maybe they should be considering a toy poodle or something. <\/p>\n

Another thing that is kind of funny? He really has no interest in me beyond if I’m appropriate for his dogs. I could be a trash collector or an axe murder for all he knows. I tried showing him all the films I’ve worked on just so it might strike up some conversation and he didn’t have a single question or reaction. As far as I can tell, the only thing he wants to talk about is his dogs and their show record. Which brings up another point: It is absolutely apparent that people who breed dogs? This is their ENTIRE world. Reminds me of geeks who go to star trek conventions and build those crazy one-of-a-kind-costumes just because they can and they LOVE star trek. <\/p>\n

Breeders are geeks... in their own way. <\/p><\/div>\n

All I can say, is this process is driving me crazy. The ultra sound is not for another two weeks. Think i could just get drunk and forget about it all until then? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
