BH

We got to visit Brian again! He is the biggest and most playful of the litter. He is fattening up, and weighs 1.5 kilos. There are 2.2 pounds in a kilo. You do the math. No, seriously, you do the math, I make it a habit not to, unless forced.

He is a terror on four legs. He attacks anything or anyone that stands in his way. I'm pretty sure he is half pit bull. In three weeks and three days he will be old enough to live with us! His little tail is starting to curl, and he is practising his meanest bark. His facial folds are really standing out, and he is the cutest pug in the land!!

Also, I cut Ben's hair into a mini mullet.

Final Poll Results

The babydog is victorious over the dogbaby! Although there were a few impassioned pleas for the dogbaby, the winner is clear. However, just because the poll expired doesn't mean this issue will die. Soon, I will embark on a journey of representation by crochet of the babydog and dogbaby, which will force you to rethink your previous notions of babydog.

Thank you all for your participation. To those who chose not to participate: shame on you. You had a chance for your voice to be heard, and you threw that chance away. Well, little did you know that your thrown away chance will soon be gobbled up by babydog. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Your level of commitment to the cause is what we should all aspire to.)

First Bath

He is getting cuter by the day. It is a fact. Bottom pic is of him and his brother, Phillip.

We had coffee with some pugs and their owners at a dog cafe, where you can order drinks for you and your doggie. We bought two small and cute toys; a rubber squeaky chicken and a puppy kong. We get to pick him up in 4 1/2 weeks!

Thrift Store Score!

A couple months ago I saw a cute telephone table at a thrift store called Lifeline. I decided not to get it, for monetary reasons, but have been thinking about it ever since. Since I got a bit of tax money back, (yea for low tax brackets!) I decided to go back to see if by some chance it was still there. Imagine my surprise when it was. Wait, it gets better: Not only was my table there, but it had brought friends. So I ended getting a cuter table for less money. Sweet! I was thinking of re-covering the cushion, but I dig the 70s vibe it gives off, so it might stay as is. It lives in the bathroom now, which has received a mini makeover. In fact, the whole house has gotten a mini makeover, and the only purchase I have made is the table. I have managed to move around and re purpose pieces of furniture in order to create a new, more harmonious and fab dwelling. If you're lucky I'll post before and after photos of that.

Also found...a $20 time machine! Some might call it a pressure cooker, but I know it is a time machine. This is how it cooks food so quickly. I have been lusting after a time machine for ages, and couldn't pass up the opportunity. Unfortunately, I am too afraid to use it for two reasons: I don't want to disturb the space/time continuum and also don't want to ruin any food.

Oh, and don't think that you're getting away with not hearing about Brian (the dog not the human). Only five weeks and one day until we get to bring him home!

Babydog

Don't think that all the puppy exitement has distracted me from my quest for truth in the babydog issue. Here is the original post, if you need a refresher on what the babydog issue is. So, if you haven't voted, think long and hard on what your decision is, and vote in the poll to the upper left of your screen. Please leave comments as to why you voted the way you did. Thank you for your participation in this important matter.
