Nanashi the Husky/Malamute mix was neutered this morning, so the boss ladies asked if I wanted to take him home tonight to watch him and keep him from getting too rowdy. He's all sorts of drugged up right now and definitely out of it, but he's still a sweetheart. Hopefully all goes well with him and we can make him a part of the family. He's a ( Read more... )

It's too bad Haasenpfeffer only just learned how to jump up on the bed a couple days ago. Now that we're moving, he won't be anywyhere near the beds for at least a year, and it's super cute when you're just about to fall asleep and BOOP there's a bunny! Phil came in the room the other night while I was sitting in bed and Haas was exploring his new- ( Read more... )

So, it's funny in an I-wish-it-wasn't-me way, but last night I got hit on the head with a clothes iron. I was playing with Haasenpfeffer on the floor of the closet and I noticed that my foot was tugging on a cord. "Oh," I thought, "the iron is up on that shelf." And then the cord went slack and I just knew what was about to happen next. Fuck you, ( Read more... )

Who in the hell gets their dog groomed on a Saturday morning? Well, I'll find out, since I work at 7AM on Saturday. First customer, pray we do not meet.

I have tomorrow off, which is rather fortuitous since we're about to get blasted by an ice storm. I can stay home and be safe instead of trying to explain to the bosses why I'd rather not die for a part-time job. I'll still be working, though. For one, I have to find a better job. Yep, still at the puppy place. Love (most of) the dogs, can't stand ( Read more... )

I caught up to the Naruto series in both manga and anime, but I skipped as much filler as I could 'cause frankly it sucks. With Phil at SCA fighter practice and me up to my usual shenanigans, I decided that yes, I would watch the crappy filler, but only if booze was involved. So I came up with a Naruto drinking game ( Read more... )

I took a quiz from MSN on Midwestern dishes just for the heck of it, and this question really bothers me: A "hot dish" is often topped with...?

Okay, seriously now. Who calls it a hot dish? It's friggin casserole for goodness sake.

...

And the answer is obviously tater tots.

I spent the entire evening catching up to the Naruto manga (I love/hate you, Phil), drinking Woodchuck, and eating crackers with brie and hummus. Not together, though. That'd taste foul. Hmm. *tries it* Okay, maybe a taste only drunkards can appreciate - it's not bad, it's just a waste of brie/hummus ( Read more... )
