Musings From The Missing
09/26/04 04:39 PM
Its been some time since I have posted anything. Its not that I don't have anything to say, on the contrary I have been most busy. I am swamped with all that is going on at home and with my family. I'll give you an example.
My parents are having the outside of our house painted. That means strange people coming over, making a lot of noise as they scrape, clean, prepare and prime. Then they paint the house. My oh my, such a nuisance. I get all worked up by the constant activity. Thank goodness that the painting is almost done.
I am growing up quite nicely thank you very much. I now weigh 6 lbs. 6 oz. I am longer in both body and in my legs. That translates into more speed as I charge around the backyard, playing fetch and chasing Woody and Tabitha, my feline companions. They are so foolish as they hiss and then run from me. If they would hold their ground, they would soon find out that I am just as afraid of them as they are of me. Tabitha usually goes up onto the back cider block wall when I chase her.
Sunday September 12th was a day that I surprised my family with my intelligence. They had gone out for Steven's birthday dinner and of course locked me outside as I am a little puppy and I am still being house trained. Imagine their surprise when upon returning home they found me inside. How did I pull that off you may ask? I have been watching how the cats go in and out through their cat door. I figured if the cats could do it so could I. And presto, I can go into the house without a problem.
On Thursday September 23rd, I went to Mom's work for the day. At first, it was frightening but as the day progressed I settled into the routine of the office. Diane, a really nice lady at Mom's office (and now my godmother) gave me a squeaky rubber duck toy. I cherish it. It is black and it has painted-on "X"s for eyes. I call it "Dead Ducky". When I put it in my mouth and squeeze, he squeaks at me. How cool is that? A fine fellow named Jeff made me welcome by getting down on the floor and playing with me.
While there, I also met a new best friend. Her name is Emma. She is Janet's daughter. I apparently charmed her to no end. She really took a shine to me. I went on a walk with her at one point in the day. Loads of fun.
I hope to write more often. Thats all for now.
