(eta: the dog thing, not the bar thing)
Well, the timing's right, since now I'm kind of pissy.
It's just - aside from the annoyance of it - Lucy, as gentle as she is, is a fierce looking dog. She almost never engages with dogs who are aggressive, just totally ignores it. But as she gets older, she has less patience, with little dogs or puppies especially, when they really try to get in her face.
And god forbid anything did ever happen, because seriously, she could crunch Murphy like a bug if she ever got the notion to. Obviously, I don't want either dog hurt. But also, anyone who didn't know the dogs in question would make some reasonable, yet totally erroneous, assumptions about where the fault lay. I don't ever want to get into that kind of situation.
Was it a Chihuahua, per chance? I have a friend whose Chi hates just about every other dog on the planet and isn't afraid to show it.
Westie, I think? Some kind of mid-size terrier.
Actually, some friends of mine have the same kind of dog, with the same name even, who also hates her. I'm sure it's some longstanding inter-breed feud, the details of which are lost to history.
And for the triple -
Neighbor just came to my door crying and apologizing. And despite my bitching, while it's annoying as fuck, I'm not actually angry are her - it's a dog, you know? You can't always control these things. But man, I wish he'd get the fuck over it.
How many weeks until Spring Training?
Dunno. But racing starts next weekend and Ima giddy kind of girl.
I'm sure it's some longstanding inter-breed feud, the details of which are lost to history.
Ah... Sharks and Jets...
Man, Soldier Field looks like a slip-n-slide.
It's probably not called Soldier Field any more. It's probably Cingular Wireless Field.
Argh, such a shame. This is one of those times when it would be so much more convenient if you could just sit digs down and talk some sense into them. "Y'all are neighbors, okay, Lucy will sometimes be in your vicinity. Just chill."
Nope, it's still Soldier Field (they can rename our Marshall Field's, but they won't take away our Soldier Field!). Cingular Wireless Field is the old Comiskey Park.
So will Comiskey be AT&T, now? And isn't there another AT&T Park?
brenda, what breed of dog is Lucy?
Anyone else having problems watching the game with Comcast? The signal is breaking up fairly often.
