Escape Dog
Busy busy busy today. Usually Fridays are pretty lazy around here (half the time most of the partners cut out after lunch) but today it seems that everybody is trying to wrap up projects in preparation for next week. Since I was such a slacker yesterday I have stuff left over to finish up and today's stuff. You would think I would no better by now.
Had a minor heart attack yesterday when Viggo bulldozed his way through the fence and ran across Cedar Springs to chase something down. Since that road has been opened up to two way traffic again, it's a lot busier and I have been worried about him ever escaping. He was lucky to not get run over yesterday, but now that he knows he can fit through the bars of the fence I'm sure he'll try it again. Time to do some creative problem solving. I wish there was some way you could train dogs to fear cars, other than running them over. He did come back pretty quickly, of course he ran across the street again to do it, but he did come to me so that's something.
Going to the HP party @ Borders later, hopefully I'll get a nap in ahead of time though so I can stay up late reading. Tonight will be a test of my ability to stay awake through fatigue. I've done it many a time, but I've also woken up drooling on books before, so my endurance is questionable at this point.
Happy Reading Everyone!
