Dry cereal:
We’re out of milk. I could, of course, go buy some. I’m sure Chris would appreciate that. But I don’t like to put Jack through the trauma of getting in his puppy prison just so I can run to the bodega for two minutes. And I can’t take him to the bodega with me [...]

So about a week ago, Jack and I were walking past a playground, and we heard this kid scream, “Look at that dog! What’s wrong with his ears? They’re so weird!”
Well, the poor pup was rather distraught about this, as you can imagine. I had to spend the next few minutes patting his [...]

I was really busy all morning and therefore slightly stressed, so I decided to take Jack on a little mid-day walk and get some fresh air.
We stopped at a cafe and I had an iced coffee:
And I bought Jack a little bone biscuit:
He carried it in his mouth all the way home:
And then left half [...]

Our new neighbors are moving a bunch of furniture in, which means Jack is doing a lot of this:
He’s held this position for nearly an hour; a quiet observer. Every once in a while, though, he lets out a little “grrrrr,’ just to let them know who’s boss. He’s quite the watch pup.
Anyway, it is [...]

I take Jack out to go to the bathroom, just like I’m supposed to, a couple of times a day when he looks antsy and/or on the verge of peeing on something that belongs to me, like my bed, shoes, foot - all things he’s attempted to mark as his territory at some point over [...]

Best. Show. Ever. Jim and Pam make my heart flutter.
Anyway. Tonight’s dinner was so good, I was compelled to proclaim to Chris that I was “becoming quite the gourmet.”
Unfortunately, I really shouldn’t take the credit. Don’t get me wrong - I still will - but I actually followed this recipe from Eating Well almost exactly, [...]

I know, that title is a total cop out. It is hard coming up with those things, so from now on, if it’s a holiday, I’m taking advantage. Hug Your Cat Day (June 4), National Lighthouse Day (August 7) and Virus Appreciation Day (October 3) will all be used.
Anyway, I am really tired today, possibly [...]

It was hairy there for a minute.
We were frustrated, and ready to give up.
It took five tries to get your nose strap on right, mostly because someone (me) didn’t read the directions carefully the first four times.
At first we weren’t sure if you were working, or if Jack was just a little sluggish after eating [...]

The guy on the treadmill next to me this morning was singing “I believe I can fly” with quite a bit of passion. Clearly it was on his iPod, which, I won’t lie, made me little happy. It could easily be argued that that song is worse than Mambo No. 5. I think I may [...]

I feel like I’ve just been eating all day long. Mostly because I have been. I was so hungry when I got home from the gym this morning, so I made some scrambled eggs. But then I realized I was out of the meatless sausage patties I usually have with them, so [...]
