I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Our dog, Maggie-the-wonder-coonhound, goes to "her chair" whenever we pull out the vacuum cleaner. The entire time we use it she sits in her chair with a pouty look on her face.

Amarna likes to sit about three feet away from the vacumn cleaner and supervise while I use it. She'll move around the apartment with me and watch the entire time. I'm used to all the dogs we had growing up all running away as soon as we pulled the vacumn out of the closet, so I find her fascination with the entire process funny.

Trust my rage

My parents' dogs attack the vacuum. Ours mostly run away.

My son is terrified of the vacuum. Instant tears. It lives in the corner of his bedroom, and he's fine with it there, but if we bring it into another room, he knows we're going to turn it on, and cries.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ozzie has been known to attack the vacuum.

Lillian has a love hate relationship with the vacuum. She always wants to go see them at Costco, but will freak while they are in use.

Annabel tends to dance back from the vacuum when it first starts, but then she tries to help. And she likes to clean up messes with our little dustbuster vac. Once she basically vacuumed the entire living room with it. I didn't try to stop her...
