Got far far away from the coast. Hiding out in PA til this storm blows over.

Day 84: It Begins....My first episode of Lost.

Via Flickr:
After the first...I sat and watched 2 more immediately. Is this going to take over my life?

Also - I cannot continue watching this if something bad is going to happen to the dog. Someone please warn me so I can stop watching. I do not condone TV Doggie Deaths.

Day 83: Charley got a haircut....a little too short!

Via Flickr:
Poor guy went to the groomer and had a different "stylist" she didn't know we like to keep his fancy "Pom" shape. Now he is a short haired dog! He's still adorable though. And he's shedding less!

You Make Me Laugh:

Artie:  Have you ever noticed the bad grammar in "This Is Not Over Yet" from Parade?
Me:  Haha, tell me.
Artie:  "No, this isn't over. No we aren't through. No, there's still a million things for you and I to do."  It should be you and ME.
Me:  .............
Artie:  Because you have to think about it as if the "you" was not there.  So it can't be "there's a million things for I to do", it needs to be "there's a million things for ME to do."
Me:  ...........
Artie:  PLUS it really shouldn't be there'S a million things.  It should be there ARE a million things...TECHNICALLY...
Me:  ..........
Artie:  Apparently Jason slept through Middle School English class.
Me:  Apparently.


....Am I the only one who sees the humor in this?  Maybe you had to be there... 

I was expecting something a little more obvious. 

Day 82: Om nom red velvet cake pop!

Via Flickr:
Yeah. I rule. They are especially delicious.

I do apologize for my slight obsession with photographing my cake pops. I'm just so dang proud.

So SOMEONE tried to double dip the cakepop and the stick came out. The cake pop OBVIOUSLY was mad about it because it had this ANGRY FACE when I fished it out of the bowl. For reals. That's an angry old man in a cake pop. I'm just saying.

Poor Scout had a lump on her leg from where she got her Rabies vaccine last year. Our vet contacted the company who makes the vaccine and they offered to pay for a biopsy of the lump. So now her poor leg has a massive bald spot, stitches and she's stuck in an E-Collar for 10 days. Poor little lady.

Readers??

So I was checking out my stats today...y'know, where my readers are, how they find me, etc...and someone from Brazil was reading!  Brazil - if you're still out there, say hi!  I think you're cool.

Also - who is in Alaska??  You're so far away...but I'm glad you stop in and read me!  Let's be friends and maybe I'll come visit you.  :)

THEN I saw that there were 17 visits from GERMANY on my blog...and I was like GERMANY?!  Why are so many people from GERMANY reading my blog?!?!  And then I realized- Oh, it's Ju.  :)

For some reason, I liked capitalizing GERMANY.  Perhaps because I took German in High School.

Guten Abend! Wie heisst du?  Ich heisse Lauren.  Ich komme aus Pittsburgh, aber wohne ich in New York. 

(I'm not sure if my grammar was correct there...sorry. )
