Driving home from Westerfolds Park this evening, I was pulled up at the lights when a young woman about my age, driving a black convertable waved at me and asked, "what kind of dogs are they?"

She was referring to maddytron and puppybot who were panting in the back seat after an hour-long jaunt in the aforementioned park ( Read more... )

How is it that warm dog can smell both wonderful and disgusting at the same time? I mean ... all that bad breath, doggy body odour and general mustiness that comes from being hairy and living predominantly outside can't be nice, right ( Read more... )

Gorgeous day in Melbourne today ... picked up shinyandnat and took the puppies for a walk around the Royal Botanical Gardens. We had lunch and a chat as well as a really long walk ( Read more... )

maddytron went for her first real weigh-pull run today. 20 minutes with 1.2kg (1/15th her body weight). She left me for dead!

I can't wait to get our scooter!

Hey all ... dramas last night and this morning involving maddytron ... details can be found here. puppybot doesn't like to admit it, but he's already missing her ;)

Been on a bit of a Superman bent of late, having tech screened the new flick "Superman Returns" last Wednesday, then rewatched the first two originals (I spose you could effectively call them prequels ( Read more... )

Somebody is feeding my dogs through the fence. Jackson was quite unwell yesterday as a result. Maddy's been putting on weight and I think we now know why.

It's started to rain. How come when it rains I immediately feel better? And how come I always think of the best songs when I should be doing something else? If I don't record this I'll get no peace ( Read more... )

Firstly, I must say a big thankyou to all the Irkens. They let me sleep under their stairs for a fortnight. Ta muchly, people ( Read more... )

Had the most woeful night's sleep last night. It consisted of about 6 hours of broken sleep featuring highly morbid dreams (I think my subconscious is hooked on iansmomesq's current run of awful circumstances). It's kind of my fault I had such a small window of Sleep Opportunity - I was busy compiling a new verb filter for Audacity and taking caps for the ( Read more... )

Am very VERY excited about something that's happening today. Well, hopefully it happens ... barring technical glitches. I'm getting paranoid now.

Meanwhile, I'm babysitting J1 and J2 for bellyra and they are behaving like true gentlemen. Brinkely and Inman could take a few lessons from them. Especially Brinkley who's spending most of his time ( Read more... )
