The Good, Bad and Ugly

Good news is I am NOT moving. It was all a misunderstanding. The bad news is Teresa IS moving. And the ugly news is that California is very, very far away. Today was the last time I'm going to see Teresa and it was pretty sad. I feel like I've known her my whole life....which is pretty much the case. I spent the rest of the afternoon in my crate being depressed. Luckily, Melanie must have known how bad I was going to be hurting cause she came home early from work. We spent the afternoon keeping our minds off of Teresa by cleaning our room, wrapping our Christmas presents and curling up on the couch with a book. Teresa if you are reading this, you need to come back right away....I miss you too much!

Am I Moving?

There are boxes everywhere and my stuff keeps getting moved around. Plus some of the furniture has changed around. The futon came downstairs and my pillow/beds switched around too! Plus there is just a lot of activity around the apartment. I keep hearing snippets of conversations about Jaxson and roomy boxes. I don't want to move and I especially don't want to do it in a box! I want to be able to see everything and ride in Melanie's lap! Plus Teresa has gotten really touchy feely with me lately. She keeps wanting to pet me and pick me up. This is way out of character for her and it makes me nervous! What is going on?!?!?!?!

Mud Bath Anyone?

So earlier this week I went to the park, something we just DO NOT do enough! It was a bit muddy there but knowing that a bath was in store for me later, I dived right in and got dirty! First I played chase with some other dogs with deliberate paths through the mud puddles. Then I played with this young puppy right in the mud puddle. We wrestled and rolled around in the gooey goodness! Aren't we cute??? Then I went over to greet my fan club. I climbed right up on her leg and gave her a kiss. I also smiled really big for the camera. As you can see I also left my autograph for her....a muddy paw print right on her thigh! I always like to take care of the fans. Melanie seemed a bit upset about this but I told her it is all part of the celebrity scene.

Pensive Pug

Melanie got a new camera this weekend. She has been saving for 6 months and she finally made the plunge. It is a digital SLR and according to her it is just perfect! Judging by this photo she took I am not nearly as elated as she is. Why humans insist on snapping hundreds of photos of us I will never understand. I was especially upset because I was trying to take a nap at the time and the shutter noise kept waking me up!

If the Heisman was based on looks....

....Brady Quinn would wipe the floor with those other guys. In fact, hardly a day goes by without Melanie commenting that, "Brady Quinn is so HOT!" I got a good look at him tonight during the trophy presentation and frankly she may be right. I've always seen him with the helmet hair and black eye stuff smears during the Notre Dame games. He doesn't look too good then, but tonight he was looking good. Mousse in the hair and a three piece suit to boot! Wonder if there is a Brady Quinn fan club that I can join to discuss this matter with other admirers?

Toy Basket

I think we can all agree that toys are better when they are in the basket. They are just more appealing for some reason than the toys laying on the floor. This is why I insist upon pulling all my toys out of the basket every single day. I spread them around the apartment leaving a few in the living room, a couple in the kitchen and at least one in the bedroom. I've even been known to leave one in the bathroom! This means that every evening before bedtime, Melanie must go around the apartment picking up all the toys. She then places them all back in the basket. But this just makes them irresistible so I always pull at least one back out and take it to bed with me.

Playdate with Maeby

Last night Melanie and I went over for a party at Doug and Maeby's house. The humans were going to watch the Aggie Basketball game while we dogs played together. After about an hour outside, they brought us back in but we still had LOADS of energy to spare. Check out this cool movie Melanie helped me make...I choose the music so make sure your speakers are hooked up!

Lazy weekend

Melanie and Teresa appear to be working really hard right now. It seems like they both leave really early in the morning and don't return until early evening. Normally this would be hard on me but I am coping so far. Luckily Melanie is sticking with her "no working, or feeling guilty about it, on saturday" policy. So we spent the day lounging on the couch watching football. She did briefly leave in the afternoon to take in an aggie basketball game, but other than that we spent the whole day relaxing.
