Hil, that's great news on doggie adoption. I will offer one unsolicited observation. I have had a few friends over the years with Jack Russell Terriers. They are adorable dogs, but tend to be VERY high energy and need to run and be active a lot or they can get destructive. They are a pretty smart breed, which can be cool, but it means that they can get bored easily and they can be a handful unless well trained.
Thanks. One of my friends, who's a vet, mentioned that too. I'll meet this dog and talk to the people at the shelter and find out more about her. If it doesn't seem like she's the right dog for me, then I'll wait for a different one.
G is digging his little foot into my side. So I tell him he's hurting me, which gets big laughs from him. 4 year olds are weird.
That seems to be an age for hitting and kicking and all that stuff. I was hanging with a friend's son at a parade and he was totally in that stage.
Jack Russells can also be barky and can jump crazy high.
G went to bed for me! I have never put him to bed before, only naps on the couch. So I was nervous he would throw a tantrum.
I offer a deep discount on bitch cutting services for Buffistas. I'm just sayin'.

Ooh. Now I want a bulk discount and to watch the carnage. Fun!
Yeah, can we buy that in a package in advance? Can we put you on a bitch cutting retainer?
I am so in.
(I think it's probably best not to talk about it too much, but I feel like my manager is behaving abusively towards our new hire.)
There was a little Jackie Russell that "worked" on our construction crew building the house. He came over every day, right about lunchtime, inspected progress, and got fed lunchmeat by the construction workers. He was a smart cookie for sure.
And of course, when it was being built, there weren't any walls, so he just trotted through the house like he owned it. By the time Seabiscuit got there, his smell was all over the place!
(eta: That's not good, Dana.)
