At least it's not Crabs

Ken brought me back an awesome head cold from Vegas. And chocolate, which almost makes up for the head cold and persistent cough.

It's great to have him home though. I really missed him.

Turns out his 11 pm flight arrived at 3:30 am on Friday (well, Saturday) due to delays. Then we had a friend stay with us for the weekend. We played a dodgeball tournament for 4 hours on Saturday and neither of us have been able to move since.

In other news, Kinley's first day of obedience class was yesterday. He does great at home... listens intently. But as soon as we get him out of the house and he sees another person (or more importantly) dog, he goes ballistic and just starts pulling. Happy pulling, but pulling nonetheless. They're teaching us to bribe him with cheese in front of his nose until he learns to turn, pay attention and come right away. We're also practicing walking on a loose lease -- which is difficult because of the above. I have a good feeling about it all though, Kinley has a great temperment. And he loves cheese & sleeping which is why he's my dog.

I can’t even count the number of times I said things like “he does this at home all the time”, “at home he can stay” & “at home he doesn’t act like a jack-ass” at Rocky’s obedience classes. Next to come: “my kid would never flush a cherry bomb down the school toilet”.

Ken brought me crabs back from Vegas once. They were delicious.

in my family, we used to try to feed
our dog her medicine by stuffing it in slices of cheese-however, she was smart enough to eat the cheese and shake out the pills...
