My grandmother and I took Sanity for a walk today.  We haven't gone since the last time when I wrote about the stupid little dogs running into the road to try and eat Sanity.  With all the job stuff I wasn't even thinking of it till we were past the house and around the corner.  That was when we heard the yapping.  "Great they sniffed out Nee and they're coming to hunt him down"  My grandmother says "They're probably after the black dog" (There's this ancient Lab that follows you for a while then goes back home.  Doesn't attack or anything)  Well we hear the people yelling at the dogs to come back and sure enough this little brown and white one comes tearing around the corner barking and snapping at Sanity.  Well my grandmother, bless her heart, starts stomping after it yelling at it to go home, it ignores her, and goes after Sanity.  Sanity is freaked out because Frammy is acting crazy and this doggy is biting him and not in a fun way.  So he jumps up and hugs me, trying to crawl up on my shoulders, fussing and crying.  Ummmm  Ow. 

My grandmother starts chasing the dog and throwing rocks at it and it runs around the corner, staring at us.  Then we hear a car start up and drive like two feet and the dog runs towards it.  The door slams shut, and the car drives another two feet then shuts off.  My grandmother and I look at each other, not beleiving that these people couldn't control these little midget dogs and had to lure them with a car ride.  We were SO looking back to walking past there again.  The lady yelled something and I, who was pretty pissy right about now, said "WHAT!?!?!?!"  She said "I just told my son to hold the dog."  Then she told her daughter "Don't worry she won't let him chase anybody"  What?!?!?! My dog chase?  He was minding his own business!  ARGHHHH

So then ahead of us is the old black dog and this brown dog that kind of looked like Hobo, cept it wasn't nice like Hobo.  Well Sanity's dumb, and he didn't notice this.  So he wants to play with this dog, which the other dog takes as a challenge.  Once again my grandmother runs up to the dog keeping it occupied till Sanity and I pass.  Sanity is then worried because my grandmother isn't with us anymore.  He keeps stopping and looking back and fussing.  I start walking back towards her and I see that the old Lab has gotten a younger Lab (I know they live in the same house because I've seen them both their with the owner who's in a wheelchair, so when his dogs take off he can't do anything about it) and they had started to go after Sanity.  My grandmother says "I'm running out of rocks!" which is funny because we live in an old quarry.  So Sanity and I start back home, and my grandmother follows shortly.  The whole time saying all the things that we all say "Those dogs are horrible, if it had bit Sanity Sanity would be blamed when he was just walking along, they're so mean all he was trying to do was climb inside you (Thanks for the visual Fram), they're just like little people, they've got big mouths and they don't know when to shut up, (Thanks again Fram, says the 5 foot tall grand daughter)" but at least she was supportive.

Sigh.  I'm gonna bring a camera next time.  And no, our town doesn't have leash laws, because we've called and complained about dogs before.  There's nothing we can do unless one of them attacks us.  And poor Sanity can't even go for his walks without one of these things trying to make their mark on him.  Poor baby.  He was so good.

Araby is a loud mouth.  Meaning that when the baby next door is asleep (We asked for her nap schedule) the boys can be outside but Araby can't because she won't shut up.  Well she was very cuddly the other day and Mommy went camera crazy.


Daddy is a PIA and won't let his pic be taken.  Araby is obviously very depressed about this.



Daddy forgot Mommy had the camera.  Muwahahahaha




"Uncle Buggy what do you mean my breath stinks?"


"Mom what's he laughing at?"


"OK you bore me"


"Lets lick Daddy's feet!"  And you wonder why she has stinky breath.  AND YES I KNOW HE HAS SANDAL TAN LINES!  I HATE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!

OK I have two job interviews tomorrow.  One at a stuffy regular receptionist job (9 AM ) and one at this advertising place (10 AM) that I want to work at SOOOOOOO bad.  During the phone interview today the guy I was talking to said that he had to let me know that they're all really weird and that they look for any excuse to throw a party that their very Un PC, and OMG I want to work their so BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It just sounds like I'll fit in and advertising and marketing is hat I've always wanted to do!  It's only 3 days a week but the hourly rate is more than I was making before and I can still bartend or do something else.  Here's the website www.bedfordgra nite.com

The boys love this Web Series called "Red VS Blue".  It's these guys who play the X Box game Halo but instead of playing the game, they make movies with it.  It's pretty cool.  Well awhile ago they did this bit called "Real World VS Internet" and it's HYSTERICAL! 

PS.  There are some adult themes in it.  Nothing bad, but if you have curious little kids, I wouldn't watch it with them around.  Unless you want to answer some interesting questions.

Today Sanity went to give me a hug and when he came down his nail ripped into my arm from the inside of my elbow all the way down almost to my wrist.  I thought it was a scrape and I look down a few minutes later and said "Oh ****, that's alot of blood."  My arm is wrapped up in guaze now, but it got me thinking, how many times, in my year of life with Sanity has he injured me? 

The first night away from the breeders he slept on my chest (As I slept on Moni's couch).  He uncerimoniousl y popped me in the nose, which then spouted forth blood.  I was actually very excited, I informed Moni "Yay!  My first official Dane injury!", but there were more to follow. 

Mayhaps we shall only go with the big ones here, as the bitten tongues from head butts, twisted ankles from holes in the yard, dislocated shoulders from random on leah airborne moments, and bruises from general rough housing are far too numerous to mention.  There's the black eye, from him punching me in the head when I talked on the phone too long for his liking.  (OMG what did Matt do to you!?!?!?!?!)  The bruised ribs from smashing me into the car when he bolted after a bird.  (I think the ribs left imprints on the car)  The swollen and bruised shin bone (those who've had it KNOW how much it hurts) from a zoomie attack gone horribly horribly wrong.  And of course this recent gem which burns like a mother....... Hubbard. 

Do these suck?  Yes.  Are they a typical BPO trait?  Most likely.  Do they happen to little dog people?  I doubt it.  Is the pain and threats to your very health and existence worth it?  Totally.

OK now share your BPO injury stories.  I KNOW YOU HAVE THEM!

He's blowing coat right now but only on his arse.  It's got big huge clumps that are just sitting there, and if they get bumped they come off.  This upsets Hobo very much and he tries to bite the hair, or whoever's pulling it out (I'm SORRY!  I can't help it!  I'm one of those people that has to push buttons just because they're there, or if I have a zit that's nowhere ready to be popped I have to try anyways)

It looks so bad!  People can see it from the street and Hobo's so depressed.  We've Zoom Groomed him to within an inch of his life and it's still coming out.  We have piles of dog hair all through the house (More than usual), and Sanity's in heaven because he likes to chew hair like gum.  The problem arises when he discovers the source of this hair and tries to pull it directly from Hobo's butt, which obviously upsets him very much.  I'm off to go take pictures!
