Now I'm sure that I'm not amused

I'm trying not to get my nose out of joint about this, but I am fervently hoping that Randy will start his own web diary and not ask me to post any more of these weird pictures in MY BLOG!

Randy is learning about Aviary webware

I'm not sure I find this amusing, but I generally try very hard to humor my humans.

Aviary

Where does Larry go on Saturday night?

It's the Creature from the Black Lagoon!

Relax. It's just Sheila, complete with waterproofed iPod, doing some pool maintenance. I knew that immediately because I'm a dog. She gave Randy quite a start, though.

Read about the Creature

Bob Dylan must have been a dog in a previous life

Oh well, I love you pretty baby
You're the only love I've ever known
Just as long as you stay with me
The whole world is my throne
Beyond here lies nothin'
Nothin' we can call our own

Well, I'm movin' after midnight
Down boulevards of broken cars
Don't know what I'd do without it
Without this love that we call ours
Beyond here lies nothin'
Nothin' but the moon and stars

Down every street there's a window
And every window's made of glass
We'll keep on lovin' pretty baby
For as long as love will last
Beyond here lies nothin'
But the mountains of the past

Well, my ship is in the harbor
And the sails are spread
Listen to me, pretty baby
Lay your hand upon my head
Beyond here lies nothin'
Nothin' done and nothin' said

Beyond Here Lies Nothin', from Together Through Life

The great disturbance in the Force is gone

Sheila's coming back from Maryland today

¡HOORAY!

My personal veterinarian is through roving about the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival and is returning to my territory with lots of roving (I'll leave the obvious and ridiculous canine puns to Junior). She also visited the Kraemer Yarn factory in Nazareth, PA and saw old friends in Conestoga Township in Lancaster County. There was a field trip with Leslie to a Dansko outlet store which excited her a lot (50% off!).

I still don't understand why she left to go look at sheep. Humans are a complete mystery.

Not the Sheila told me that right now she's at BWI sitting in one of those comfortable padded chairs equipped with a cup holder and USB port, waiting for her ride west. I have no idea what a USB port or a BWI is but I don't care as long as she is coming back.

Tonight's meal

Not the Sheila^† is not Sheila, but he's more fun at dinnertime!

• 1 cup diet kibble
• 1/2 cup regular kibble
• a bit of leftover cat food (salmon with rice)
• 1 quite small peanut butter pretzel
• 3 miniscule Pepperidge Farm goldfish
• subatomic crumbs from a virtually empty box of Trader Joe's dog newtons
• generous dash of well water (wheeeee!)
  

All ingredients were arranged in an esthetically pleasing way, with a tiny piece of rawhide from a bonsai steer for dessert.

What a creative way to starve me to death.
