Yes, I really did buy the “Amish” shoes. They are about as stylish as bowling shoes, but boy are they comfy! My approach to fashion is to pretend it is the 90’s and that clunky unattractive shoes go with everything – including dresses.
Toby has an easy solution for any shoes he doesn’t like; he chews them up. Sadly, that is his treatment for those that he does as well.

Yes, this is an actual fear of mine. With all of the “zrp! zrp! zpr!” and friction coming from these pants, I worry about inadvertently starting a natural disaster. I am sure the best solution would be to walk more…but then I would still be dealing with the whole friction situation, wouldn’t I? Nah, better to sit back and have another banana smoothie. Anyway, it’s supposed to rain tomorrow.
I know my boys would love it if you laughed at their terrible misfortunes..
Meet teeny, tiny Toby,
His toots more lethal than old socks!
And if you ever smelled them,
You’d be a pine-y box.
All of the folks around him
Looked upon his toots with fear.
On more than one occasion,
They’d been known to kill a deer.
Then one sunny afternoon
Recruiters came to ask:
“Toby with your toots so rank,
Won’t you come augment our tanks?”
Then how the nation loved him
As they sang and did a dance.
You, teeny tiny Toby
You have lethal flatulence!
The itty bitty monster was living up to his reputation again this week….

Hope everyone enjoys a fun night of Trick-or-Treating or handing out candy.
As for real Bitey and Toby, we will likely be hiding from night visitors because these two are too barky. (Don’t ring our bell…we won’t be home!)

Idiot.
Toby can find games anywhere….even in leaves blowing past us on our walks.

Today it was bees again. That boy can’t seem to resist a game of “Chase the Dumbledore”. (Did you know that dumbledore is another name for bumblebee? I was surprised when I found that out.)

This is based on actual events. It happens every time I ask them to choose. Geordie loves biscuits, but Toby loves Geordie.

Talk Like a Pirate Day!
Don’t forget to annoy your friends and coworkers.
True story. I really do have freckles (shut up, you two laughing dogs) in the shape of an angelfish on my arm. I don’t have any tattoos, and I have wondered on occasion what I would get if I did get one. I guess an angelfish is as nice of one as any!
