When Trix’s first winter came, she hated the cold, especially when it snowed. But I think Tansy hates it more. As soon as the temperature started dropping, I noticed Tansy sleeping a whole lot more. It’s almost like she goes into mini hybernation. The poor thing, just when she’s adjusted to one temperature, it drops …

A Dog That Loves Bath Time?
Today, Tansy got her second bath she’s gotten while she’s been with me. Man, is she ever easier to bathe than Trix. She hates getting in, and will fight tooth and nail to stay out of there, but once she’s in, she’s good as gold. I still appreciated having Steve there to keep the curtain …
Black Eyes Look Better When They’re Shaded
I’ve never been one to want to wear make-up. I dunno, buh, I just never did it. But last week, I wished I had a clue about putting on the stuff. Here’s why. A week ago yesterday, due to some wacky fluke, I fell and smacked my head. I had Tansy’s leash in one hand …

White Poppies Make Me See Red
One thing I’ve noticed in this town is I’ve found it hard to find a place to get a poppy! I went to the bank across the street, I ran there before work, and no, they didn’t have them, nor did they know where I should go. I’ve never had to google it, but I …
Tour Of A Strange Dream
I have so many strange ideas for posts. I accumulate them and never get a chance to write them down…and then I barf small random posts because they’re the easiest to get done. So inevitably, I still leave the large, intimidating post ideas for who knows when. Here’s another small one. I mentioned dreaming about …
Old Toys
Yup, I’m full of random posts. I hope these aren’t boring. A while back, I noticed that the noise What’sApp makes when you have new messages reminded me of something…something…what was it? What I settled on was the little humming noise an old toy I used to have made if you shook it just right. …
It’s The Adele People!
The other day, we had CBC Radio 2 on, and I heard this song that sounded like something Adele would sing. I asked Steve if this was an Adele song. He said no, but heck if he could remember the name of the artist. So every time we would hear this song, we’d say it …
Trix, You’re Still In My Dreams
I mentioned yesterday in a comment under Brad’s post about Trix that I had another dream about her. Here it is, because it’s weird. And, why am I having Trix dreams still? It started off normal enough. Steve and Tansy and I were out walking through some festival in Kitchener, and Brad was there too, …
Huppy 2.0 Has Arrived!
Just a quick note, because I don’t want this to wait super super long. To recap for people who might not know, our neighbour from our old building has a kid that I nicknamed the huppy because in one of my Trixie posts, I called him a human puppy. Well, on Thursday, Huppy 2.0 was …
iBubbleSlurpNonfunctionalPhone
I heard about this on Friday, and went out to find it. Apparently some people over at 4chan, the same people who tricked people into shaving their heads for Justin Bieber, convincing them he had cancer, cooked up another doozer. It looked like an Apple ad for iOS7, except this ad told people that simply …
