3 times the fun

I am exhausted...and can barely rouse myself to make this post. You see I had lots of visitors the weekend! First katie came to visit on friday, then on saturday grandma and grandpa showed up! it was very exciting! I spent the whole time jumping from lap to lap getting all the love I deserve! At one point all three were petting me at the same time...it was AWESOME! Now I am resting comfortably on the couch recovering watching the rain outside pass through. Melanie thought about a trip to the doggie park but the weather really interfered which I was thankful for cause I think I need about 163 more naps today to get back to normal!

News and Notes from the Past Few Months

Well, it has been a long time since I blogged....hope I didn't lose too many of my approximately 10 regular subscribers! For the past few months I was living with my grandma and grandpa while Melanie finished her PhD dissertation. At first I was upset about this turn of events, but I think it was a good thing. Melanie was spending more hours at school than at home by a factor of 3 to 1. This lead to many missed meals for her and as a pug I just cannot imagine skipping meals...or snacks....or random treats....or the odd scrap off the sidewalk. At grandma's I got a regular schedule of 10 snacks per day interspersed with 10 naps not to mention 2 solid meals a day. Oh and did I mention all the doggie massages and attention! The only downside was sharing my domain with a cat, but by my departure I think we both agreed that I was the master and he was the slave!

Anyway, Melanie passed her defense (*clap*clap*clap*clap) and came to retrieve me several weeks ago. Here's a recap of what's happened since then

1) City life is interesting
2) Houston dog parks are illusive
3) Wood floors are slippery
4) Melanie's new couch ranks #3 on my all time best couch list
5) Melanie's new bed ranks #2 on my all time softness scale
6) Elevators are magic time machines
7) Doggie daycare rocks....seriously!
8) Unlimited treats = poundage increases
9) Diet is a 4 letter word
10) I really miss grandma's house!!!!!!

So now you are all caught up....and stay tuned for all my new adventures!
