Can you believe I adopted Lillie and Louie about a year ago now? It feels like I've had them forever! They've made so much progress since I got them. Both are healthy and happy, and spoiled, of course. Today Lillie was jumping up all over me and giving me kisses and I was like, "this is the dog that hid from me every time i went near her for months ( Read more... )

My BlackBerry is pretty much dead, so I really hope my Droid Incredible gets delivered today.

Tom, Jill and I went to see Inception last night. Holy shit. GO SEE IT. Before the movie, we met at Big Bowl and there were all these people with babies there. OMG here is a hint: if a restaurant has a bar and/or does not have a kids' menu then don't ( Read more... )

The Shih Tzu rescue people started calling my references today and the feedback from all of them (including mutinous thank you so much, bibi!) points toward me getting a home visit in the next week or so. Almost all the dogs from this rescue agency come from puppy mills so I will be getting a special needs dog of some sort. I'm a bit nervous about that ( Read more... )

I'm down to my last boxes! The only problem is that they contain shit I just don't know what to do with right now. Like concert stubs and random other shit I had tacked up on my bulletin board, plus giraffes. I love giraffes and so have this huge collection of them from all over the world ranging from wood carvings from Africa to coffee mugs to ( Read more... )
