with a wimper
Hi Everybody!
Yes, it's been a while. Life seems to get in the way of writing (or thinking) about life. Well, that's a little abstract. I'm a lazy dude. Check that. I'm an extremely lazy dude. I like to watch TV. TV is not conducive to creating or maintaining independent, novel thought. Also, I like football. Football is fun to watch. It takes up my entire Sunday though. So, see, I'm not good at setting aside time for things like typing. And, thus, I return with a whimper only to disappear again soon, if not tomorrow. But in the interim, let's chat.
The wedding was fun. Very fun. Our family and our friends know how to have fun. Pictures are up on the photographer's web site: www.furlastudio.com. There are a lot of them. Seriously. A lot.
So, there's this dog. And he's ours. It's awesome. Except in the middle of the night. And in the morning. And when she won't stop biting my pants. But the other times, it's awesome. Her ears are bigger than her face. She has literally stopped traffic. Cars have pulled over to ask what breed she is. If you're wondering, she is a Boston Terrier. She is a cute one. All puppies are cute. She's the ugly kind of cute, which is awesome. Having a dog is everything I hoped it would be, except for the annoying shit. But that stuff should abate as her bladder (and the rest of her) gets bigger. Hopefully her ears will stay about the same. Otherwise we will have to rename her Dumbo. And not as an exaggeration.
Having just watched the Bears game, I must say this: The Bears are awesome. They are hands down the best team in the league right now. Here's hoping they can keep it up. At least one of the teams I root for has a shot at greatness. The Bulls might. The Cubs don't. Lou Piniella is the opposite of a savior. Kudos to them though, as they find new ways to lose rather than sticking with time-honored, clinically-proven losing strategies.
And I leave you with pictures.
She'll learn better than to do this to Cubs paraphernalia.
Her as she is. On a good day.
Just a dog.
