His Eyes Are Open

Pupdate!

His siblings are opening their eyes! He is too focused on getting food to worry about vision.
Hey fatty boomba.

His little nose is starting to turn black!

Miniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

We're getting a pug puppy!!! We are...well, exited doesn't really explain it...more like ecstatically overjoyed. We got to pick him out last night and spend lots of time with him, and his puggy parents, Jezebel and Jackson. They are adorable, so we are hoping ours takes after them. Here is our first family photo and a photo of ours with his siblings. (He's the one with his tongue sticking out.)

Garden!

Hey guys. It is officially spring in Australia, and that means gardening. My wonderful auntie and uncle gifted me some desirable new gardening tools, and I put them to work recently. Below you will find a time lapse video of me weeding the garden. Don't worry, it's not as boring as it sounds.
Miraculously, a small cilantro/coriander plant has sprouted over the winter.

In Other Dog News

We went to a pug meeting today! We joined a group of pug parents, and got to play with nine pugs that had formed a wild pack. I brought my pug purse, which was a hit with the humans as well as the dogs. Hopefully soon we will have one of our own.

Bear with Me

I'm not going to lie.  I have been going through a period of indecision with the blog.  It seems as if Woot (The Life and Times of Inigo Montoya aka Sacajarickard) is due for a shakeup.  A sea change, if you will.  So, in order to help tailor the reading needs of you, my loyal fans, I am asking you to participate in a poll.  

This is a simple matter, but an important one.  I welcome open debate and comment on this matter: 

If you had to decide, would you rather have in your possession a baby's head with a dog's body, or a dog's head with a baby's body?  There are a few parameters that you should keep in mind while making your decision.  The Baby in question is about 1 1/2 years old, which we have determined through clinical studies to be the approximate intelligence of a dog.  The Dog in question is of adult age, and small stature; 15-20 pounds.  In either scenario, the body parts will have normal function.  For example, the Baby's head would be able to communicate as a 1 1/2 year old child, and the Dog's head would be able to bark.  Conversely, the Baby's body could crawl/walk, while the Dog's body could run around.

I have a strong opinion on this matter, but will keep it a secret, so you can make up your own mind.  I am looking forward to your votes and reasoning.  Bye for now.

Just You Wait

Hey guys.  It has been ages since this blog has been updated.  You can blame the University of Queensland for that.  Considering I have forked over a small fortune to them, the least they could do is give me some free time to update the blog.  Is that too much to ask?

However, that is all about to change: three exams down, one to go.  After Monday I am free to update at my leisure.  Luckily, many spectacular events are on the horizon, so, there are exiting* posts in your near future.   Just you wait.
