My Mind Is Running In Little Circles


When I come home from work to barking dogs and LB is yelling at the barking dogs – I want to stab myself in the head. Repeatedly. I literally had to bite my tongue to not shriek, “Whatthefuckareyoudoing? DoyounotHEARYOURSELF?!” About that time, Sweety walked up and mentioned that I looked on edge and proceeded to give me a shoulder rub. I was so tense that it made me scream. Not a good kind of scream either.

Oliver? The best dog ever? Who has only been with us for nine days? Has already learned to ring the bell that is hanging from the doorknob with his nose when he needs to go potty. Perhaps Stinky and Tiny will follow his lead. Highly unlikely. AND he will roll over on command and when you give a short whistle he’ll flop onto his back to show you his belly. He is made of awesome.

I nibbled off all of my nails today at work. It gave me something to do and by the time I was done almost 2 hours had passed. Maybe tomorrow I will pluck my eyebrows off to help pass the time.

Something I like? Getting a nice email from someone saying that they liked my photos and they did NOT include a photo of their penis or mention whacking off. Very civilized.

  1. I seriously can’t wait to meet Oliver the Wonder Dog.

    Please don’t pluck out your eyebrows. Then you’d have to paint them on and I really don’t want to see you rockin’ the chola style in 2010.

    And I’ll keep in mind not to send photos of penises to you when I’m sending an email.

    I won’t paint my eyebrows on. I’ll just run around with a constant look of surprise on my face.

    Thanks for laying off the penis photos.

  4. Wait, so the penis pictures I send you aren’t civilized?!?! How dare you.

    Yours are okay. Keep them coming!

    (Ok. I just made myself laugh by using the word “coming” in reference to penii. Lame. So lame.)

  5. Oliver sounds like a real character :)

    Fine fine, I’m going to send coochie pictures with my emails in future instead then!

    He is quite a catch! I’m glad we wandered into the shelter that day.

    Yes! More coochie! Maybe some hamster hoo-haas? They’re so tiny and cute.

  6. It was Fiero, not me. He may not have balls, but he still has something to prove.

  7. We get some very interesting emails. Far stranger and more alarming; however, are some of the stores that accompany our photos which are stolen and posted on other sites.

    They post your photos?! Oh man, that would royally piss me off.

  9. ooh. I need a bell. I think Chango would totally pick that up!

    Chickie said:

    And if he doesn’t you can tell everyone it’s for decoration. That’s what we did when Tiny Dog wouldn’t use it. Now I can say it’s Oliver’s!
