more about puppies

can ya tell we love our dogs? it's sickening, isn't it? well, of all people my mother (who doesn't really like animals) will feed syrus food from her mouth. that's how cute and endearing our puppies are. yes, they can be a pain in the ass when people first come over - syrus will cry he's so happy to see you and bibi will do her happy barrroooo! and louie wil just jump up and down like a dumbass. they have been so spoiled and happy lately because mommy has been home. all they do is sleep, sleep, sleep.check out the leg propping going on. don't worry about syrus - he has the entire bed to himself....
speaking of beds, ours broke. it's a crappy malm bed from ikea and well, i guess johnny and i were pushin the weight limit on it anyways - but even still it was a crappy bed from the start. now we have to get a new one because this morning johnny's alarm went off at at the same exact time the bed collapsed. btw, this is the second bed that we have collapsed. the first one was a sofa bed at dry pond that was old and i don't think we set it up right but all we know is in the middle of the night there was a loud boom! and we got folded in half.

I forgot to mention that sunday morning the dogs got out of the house. sorry to interrupt this post, but my mom just totally busted me. i didn't tell her about getting fired yet and she just pulled up to my house. so now she knows. instead of getting mad, though she seems OK about it. she wants me to go goodwill shopping with her, so I'm gonna go do that and will continue this post later.

ok back now and had a full day. went to goodwill with mom - turns out tuesday is senior discount day and also her favorite day to shop. and she loves having to prove she's a senior. i got a few odd things for the house - a birdhouse, small wine rack, small heart shaped footstool, and picnic basket. then we had lunch at the indonesian hole-in-the-wall. then she remembered she had a meeting with her broker about listing six flags shopping center for sale (duh! how could you forget that?) so we went to that but had an hour to kill so we got matching french pedi-mani's. it's funny to see my mom in a meeting - i'm used to marathon meetings about spandrel glass, pipes and ventilation but she couldn't sit through her little 1.5 hour meeting about selling her property without squirming. she practically ran out of there then we went to west end so i could take pictures of this cafe she wants to put in. she really likes the fact that i am not working cause she has about a million things for me to do. which is fine. she wants me to go with her to d.c. this weekend but i want to go camping with johnny. then we had pizza at the loop and now johnny and i are at home chillin. i love johnny - he's such a good guy. he's so much happier now that he likes his job. he's going to fix the bed with telephone books again. pretty soon we are going to have a phone book bed. maybe we can sell it on ebay! ok, enough rambling for now. i wonder if anyone (besides vanessa) even reads this shit!
