For the love of dogs

I love dogs...so much it hurts.
I wonder if anyone will ever understand it?



These are some photos of my little baby Buckey (after Jeff). He is a pug cross staffy and he is the most adorable little puppy! He was a 21st birthday present from my housemate and my boyfriend. Probably the best gift I've ever received..


This passage was taken from Mickey Rourke's Wiki page. This right here was the first bit of information i really ever read about Mickey Rourke and I have LOVED him ever since.

"He is well-known as a pet fancier, particularly fond of small-breed dogs. A spay/neuter advocate, Rourke participated in a protest outside of a pet shop in 2007 and has done a public service announcement for PETA
His first little dog was reportedly a gift from his second wife. Though Rourke's dogs are generally referred to as "chihuahuas," some are not pure-bred. Loki, his most-publicized dog whom he described as "the love of my life," was a chihuahua-terrier mix. So reliant was Rourke on Loki's companionship, he spent US$5,400 to have her flown to England while he was on the set of the film Stormbreaker.
Rourke gave his dogs credit during his Golden Globe Best Actor acceptance speech January 11, 2009: "I'd like to thank all my dogs. The ones that are here, the ones that aren't here anymore because sometimes when a man's alone, that's all you got is your dog. And they've meant the world to me."The day of the 2009 Golden Globes show, he told Barbara Walters that "I sort of self-destructed and everything came out about fourteen years ago or so ... the wife had left, the career was over, the money was not an ounce. The dogs were there when no one else was there." Asked by Walters if he had considered suicide, he responded:
Yeah, I didn't want to be here, but I didn't want to kill myself. I just wanted to push a button and disappear....I think I hadn't left the house for four or five months, and I was sitting in the closet, sleeping in the closet for some reason, and I was in a bad place, and I just remember I was thinking, 'Oh, man, if I do this,' [and] then I looked at my dog, Lowjack, and he made a sound, like a little almost human sound. I don't have kids, the dogs became everything to me. The dog was looking at me going, 'Who's going to take care of me?'
—Mickey Rourke
Despite being identified as "Lowjack" in the transcription above, the dog in the anecdote was apparently Beau Jack, who sired two of Rourke's later pets, Loki and her littermate Chocolate. Beau Jack died in 2002, though Rourke gave him 45 minutes of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Chocolate was the subject of a children's book, Chocolate at the Four Seasons, about his temporary stay with producer Bonnie Timmerman. Chocolate returned to Rourke and died in 2006. In addition to those dogs and several other past pets, Rourke currently owns a chihuahua named Jaws who appeared with him in his 2009 PETA ad, as well as in the movie "Man on Fire."He has had as many as seven dogs at one time, back in 2005.At the time of his Golden Globes tribute to his pets, Rourke owned five chihuahuas: Loki, Jaws, Ruby Baby, La Negra and Bella Loca. About a month later, on February 18, 2009, Loki died in Rourke's arms at the age of 18."

We've got obsessions

My current obsessions

Michael Fassbender
Went and saw the new X-men movie. He is fucking awesome and very pretty too..

Game Of Thrones
New HBO series, it's fuckin sick! I'm especially obsessed with one of the characters Khal Droger (pictured above)
He's like a savage, and he is sooooo sexy, but in a weird way that I find people attractive. Sam thinks he's butt ugly...
He's played by Jason Momoa who has been cast as Conan in the new Connan the Barbarian film coming out this year. Yeah, Conan is sexy

Kewpie Dolls

This album.....can't get enough

Yes, this. I find its really good for inspiration..
Oh and procrastination and time wasting





Rodarte Spring 2011 Range.

My adorable pets, Ginger & Buckley.
Ginger was a stray and she is so sweet and the best cat!
Buckley was my 21st birthday present from my boyfriend Sam and best friend/housemate Louie. He is a Pug cross Staffy and he makes everyones heart melts who he meets!
They love each other... Kind of

AND FINALLY..
This great hunk of spunk!
