those mean kittys!!

I figured out where the cats go to get away from me. There is a thing called a "doggy door" on the door that goes from the kitchen to the garage. Well, I finally figured out how to climb through it and follow the cats out into the garage. They are being quite mean, though. I do not know how to get back into the house. I think it is through the same door, but I just don't know.

So there I was, chasing the cats around the house in my usual fashion, when they bolted out the doggy door. Out I went too. Then, in the blink of an eye, they ran through the door again and back into the house. I was stuck! I could not go back through the door. I sat on the garage floor by the doggy door and wimpered and cried until mommy and daddy opened the door and let me back into the house. Wouldn't you know, the cats were sitting right there on the other side of the door laughing!!! It was a setup! They knew I could not get back into the house, so they lurred me into the garage because they knew I would be stuck out there! I cannot decide if the cats are mean, or just really smart...

baby tester

Lately I have been living up to my nickname of the "test run". You see...mommy and daddy always joke that getting me was a test run for when they have kids. Lately I think they have been taking it a bit too literally! Mommy came home with this hiking backpack for my soon-to-be sister, and they came up with the bright idea that I should test it out. In I went! I have to say...I LOVED it!!! I was so high I could see all the way into the treat jar in the kitchen! I wonder if I can convince them to buy a second one so both the baby and I can each have a pack to ride in!

This baby carrier gets "two pugs up!" (get it! two thumbs up?!?!?)

Green Eggs and What??


I was performing my daily surveilance of the perimeter today, mostly to check on my brothers Bailey and skippy and to check for any wayward Dingos, and I saw a new book in what is becoming my sister Grace' room. I am no stranger to literature, but this book was an entirely different genre to me!! Now, I love a good story, among my favorites are Casabarka, The Wizard of Gus, The Dingos of Wrath, and The Silence of the Pugs; however, this new novella really opened my eyes. The title of this great work of fiction is Green Eggs and Ham and let me tell you now, this Dr. Seuss fella is onto someething!! The Sam-I-Am character has such depth and complexity. The twist in which the disgruntled main character, who would not eat the green eggs and ham with a mouse or in a house, he would not eat them here, he would not eat them anywhere, turns out he actually WOULD eat them with a mouse in a house. Imagine, he would eat them HERE and THERE!! He would eat them anywhere!! An incredible read!!

Grace will be very lucky to have this story read to her every night, if only daddy wouldn't trip up over the words all the time . . .
