Sorry, everyone.

[evile]

I just wanted to apologize to anyone at Moviegasm that I saw, didn't see, ignored, or was rude to in the 5 minutes it took for me to arrive, have my dog get chewed on by another dog, and leave again.

I don't have a coherent time line of memory for what happened. I have some bits and pieces, but not the full picture We had just walked in and started putting away the things we brought with us. The Dogs were all swarming around the door, sniffing and carrying on, and then the next thing I know, Maggie was jumping on Lady and they were both barking. Maggie kept taking bites of Lady's shoulders, the back of her neck, and got her on her back and was going for her throat. They were fighting and getting closer and closer to dicemonkey's baby. I saw him moving to pick up the baby, but it didn't seem like anyone was getting to the baby fast enough. I couldn't move fast enough. I was trying to get my legs between the dogs, I knew enough to keep my hands away from dog mouths and trying to grab Maggie's collar. I think I was yelling, but I don't really remember. Then I was near or on the stairs with the dog? Then I was outside with Thax and Throm brought me some icee stuff. Then I was inside and Goudananda said something to me but I don't remember. And then downstaris getting stuff out of the library/tv room fridge and cussing at Oracle_tx (I don't remember what I said. I'm really sorry) and then I pushed Freyapax out of the way and then I was in the car crying on arthurthedented. So...that all sucked. It really freaked me out and I just needed to get home.

Lady is cleaned up and none the worse for it. I checked around her neck and shoulders for punctures, but I think she was too fluffy for any of Maggie's attempts at taking out her throat.

I wish I could have calmed the fuck down, gotten the fuck over myself and had a nice time after that but I just couldn't do it. I'm really sorry to have missed a good party and a nice visit with friends.

Looks like we'll need to...in the gathering-up process, Thax forgot to grab my pillow.

See ya in the morning.

Thanks again for the hugs & kindness. I'm sorry for freaking out.

You're fine. That was a freak-out-worthy happening and I'm glad that everyone is okay. You are too. *hugs*

Thanks *hugs*

It sounds like I missed a great party. Next time!

{{hugs back}} Thanks so much for relaxing brunch & lovely company & conversation yesterday. I love spending time with y'all. The morning after one of your parties is almost better than the party itself :)

You came in, said you are fine but there was a problem with your dog, you were stressed about it but otherwise okay, I gave you a bit of a squeeze and you left. No harm done, and I don't remember any cussing.

Ok. I have a brief flash of standing in front of the fridge grabbing my stuff to leave, and saying a lot of bad words in your general direction. I am glad that part is faulty. Thanks for the squeeze.

Having one's dog in a fight with another dog is scary and can take some time to recover from. It took my mom and me a couple of hours to stop shaking after that one fight our dog got into -- and the other dog hadn't laid a tooth on her, even!

Thanks.

A couple of folks were trying to give Big Deep Psychological reasons for my freak-out. I'm glad that you reacted similarly in similar situation, that makes me feel far more Normal :)

Glad I could be of help. I know that it helps to hear from someone with similar experience, no matter if it's about dogs, falling bookcases or insane drop-off and pick-up schedules for kids going to too many schools.
