Swimming in December

What are you two doing? You know we're on mandatory water restriction. The water broke! The house is flooded! Yippee!

All the water I’ve tried to conserve went out the window with one broken appliance.

Sheesh, this flooded more than I expected.

Run, Toby, Run

*

Toby and I had a misadventure a couple of weeks ago. While on a walk, two large dogs woofed at Toby and scared him so badly that he bolted. He pulled me hard enough to knock me down and flip me over. I was stunned, and it took a few seconds for me to be able to move. In that time my little stinker pulled the leash off my wrist and ran away.

*

*

I landed hard on both hands and both knees. My knees were torn and bruised even through my clothes. This was one hand after cleaning out the abrasions. (I left a nice trail of blood along the way home.)

Unlike the last time I fell, kind people stopped to check on me while others went after Toby. He was so scared that he was over a quarter of a mile away – heading home as fast as his little terrier legs could carry him – before someone caught him.

*

I wasn’t scared. I was just being prudent.

Very rapidly.

*

Toby has always been a scaredy boy, but he was calmer and more willing to try new things when Geordie was with him. Human children may have security blankets, but Toby had a Security Geordie. I wonder sometimes if he might not be such an emotional mess if he still had a canine buddy.

The Bookshelf

Gosh guys, not being able to see well recently has really made me think about the clutter i have in my life.

*

I mean, if I couldn't see, how could I even start to sort through books? Would I still want any of these/ Might someone come read them to me?

*

Some of these books were new when I go them. they were cutting edge research. Maybe a histlry major would be interested in the now. Or an archaeologist.

*

Some of these books were gifts, so they are very dear to me, yet if I am honest with myself, I will likely never read them again.

*

Humans are so ridiculously sentimental. I mean, we dogs destroy our toys all the tme and don't give it a second thought. Hush your mouth! Blue Puppy is a national treasure!

*

The thought of my overcrowded bookshelf weighed heavily on my mind, yet it was painful to consider giving away something as significant as a book. Still, I forced myself to start the difficult task and set aside a few volumes that I no longer needed.

Then I woke up.

Crap!!!

So sometimes you dream of the devil, and sometimes you dream about cleaning bookshelves? (Humans are so weird.)

Mike Tyson vs. Batman

What happened to you? Did you lose a fight with Mike Tyson? Are you Red Batman? What makes it even funnier is that I can pick on you all I want, and you can't smack me or you risk scraping your knuckles and having another reaction. Mwahahaha!

*

Fwack!

*

I guess I forgot that humans can use tools.

***********************

In real life I look even worse than in these pictures. My camera seems to want to color correct. I guess “lobster” isn’t deemed an appropriate color for a human.

Mommy says I have to tell everyone that she has never raised a paw to me in real life.
