Because I can’t stop doing these dog posts, and because people seem to like them, here’s another list of things that happen to me/things people say to me while Trixie and I are zooming around. 1. Someone actually said to me, “Wow! She knows what right and left mean? How cool is that?” Um, if …

>Clearing the Backblog
>Hope you folks like these random posts, because with all that time I didn’t write, I’ve created quite a, well, thought backblog. I’m sure I’ll be able to write something more focused soon. But until then, have a pile of thoughts. Remember back in another random post, I said I forgot something? Well, I remembered …
Hello? Is This Thing On?
Writing this, I wonder if anyone’s still reading. We both screwed off for a good long time. 15 days? eek. Have we ever done that before? I’m too lazy to scroll through the archive and check. But I think it’s pretty rare. So rare that Ann Adams, the sweet lady that she is, wondered if …
You Left Your Dog Where?
I cannot even remotely understand this story. Here’s a short summary. Guy, his wife and his guide dog go camping in a Wal-Mart parking lot (what the hell?).Guy ties his guide dog to a tree.guy and wife leave the next morning, each thinking the other had put the dog back in the camper (again, what …
Strange Dreams are Made of Trixie.
You can tell I spend a lot of time thinking about Trixie. Why? She’s in my dreams! She’s in a lot of my dreams in very ordinary ways, but there were two that were especially weird. I had one dream that it was one of those times that Steve and I were off to visit …
Follow My Nose To What?
Last night, we were watching Cops. I don’t know what it is exactly, but something always draws us to watching crime shows, and I think the most amusing ones are Cops and To Serve and Protect, just because the people getting arrested come up with some pretty weird excuses for why they have drugs on …
Beating A Who With A What Now?
Steve told me about this story, and he’s right. The next passage contains the best words to be written down since a police officer said someone was punching vegetation. Durango, CO11:08 a.m. A man on Westwood Place said his girlfriend was beating a miniature Chihuahua with a spatula. And that’s the whole story. That leaves …
Bits of Trixie goodness I forgot about.
I knew I was forgetting some things about Trixie that I wanted to say. So here are the things I forgot. I have now discovered she likes squirrels. They tempt her whenever we walk through the university campus. Always something new. When we’re playing, sometimes she pins my head down and sniffs my ear. I …
More Trixie goodness!
I think it’s time for an update on the Trixter, along with some things I’ve noticed because of her. Because of her, I end up spending considerably more time loitering around the outside of the apartment building. I’m not really loitering, I’m waiting for her to do her duty. But anyway, it means more time …
Dear Little Children in Our Building:
I used to like listening to you laugh and shriek and scream. I used to think it was pretty cool that you all had a place to play right outside your door. Now, the sound of your voices fills me with dread. Why? Because when I take Trixie to do her business, you won’t leave …
