Valley Fever

Sucks.  But now Alpha has gravel down so maybe I won't be inhaling as much dust.

New Years Resolutions

15. I will not eat other animals' poop. 
14. I will not lick my human's face after eating animal poop.
13. I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under Alpha's feet. 
12. My head does not belong in the baby's high chair.
11. I will no longer be beholden to any sound occurring outside the yard.
10. I will not walk in on Alpha when he is peeing.
9. Come to understand that squirrels are a natural enemy and should be driven from the yard at all costs.
8. Take time from busy napping schedule and chase squirrels from the yard.
7. I must shake the gravel and grass from my body BEFORE entering the house.
6. Get a bite in on that damn squirrel stealing my carrots from the garden.
5. Grow opposable thumb; break into pantry; decide for MYSELF how much food is *too* much. 
4. I will not play tug-o'-war with baby over a cheerio. 
3. The baby's high chair is not a cookie jar.
2. The garbage collector is NOT stealing our stuff. 
1. I will NOT chase the stick until I see it LEAVE THE IDIOT'S HAND

Alpha tried to kill me

Family went for a walk in the wash today.  I am exhausted.  Babypotamus is climbing all over me but I am too pantingly tired to move away from her.  Damn I am out of shape.  

New dog

My Friend Pepper is staying with us now.  Don't know for how long, but am hoping that she will not want my food.  Other than that, we shall play and frolic and chase squirrels out of the garden.

Buffalo treat

I did not like the buffalo treat.  Alpha female says it is gross and won't let me have it in the house.  If it stays outside it gets covered in ants.  Alpha male threw it out.

Strange treat

Alpha brought home this thing as a treat for me.  I wasn't sure what to do with it.  It smelled funny and was frozen.

Hot

Hot out.  Sleep inside all day.  Only go out in the evening.  Too hot.
