He's Alive!!!

My new dog was diagnosed with distemper this past weekend. So far the treatment has been working and he's as frisky as ever...BUT he hadn't pooped in 2 days, until this evening when all the magic happened. He started doing his poop dance which means walking around in a very tight circle in the area of his choosing, either outside on this manhole or inside on a pad. Anyway, he had been doing this dance and then running to the door and then going back to the pad for about 5 minutes. I think he had stage fright because I kept watching him to make sure he remembered to go in the right spot. Jacob yelled at me to stop staring because I was making him nervous so I reluctantly perused facebook. Then I heard it....a sound not unlike that of a human in much of the same sort of purgatorial discomfort. I looked over and there he was. He made the same noise about two more times. Now he's happily chewing his rope without a care in the world. I wish I could have videotaped it because the noise was both heartbreaking and hilarious. There is a purebred bichon available for adoption I wish I could have. He's only 50,000 won which is like, less than $50. What a deal! But I don't think our small closet-like apartment would be comfortable with two dogs to deal with. Plus J would probably go insane at home all day with both of them spazzing about.

I've been reading Roald Dahl's two autobiographies and they are absolutely gripping! He lived such an amazing life.

I really enjoyed the latest SNL. All my favorite funny ladies. When is What is Paul coming out? That is my much anticipated movie of the moment since I rewatched all 3 seasons of Black Books this weekend. I also want his sunglasses.

  1. Why did Black Books make you excited for Paul? Dylan Moran is not in it. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are, though. The movie itself will probably not be out until next year, because Paul himself is an entirely computer animated aien, so the effects take a long time to do.

  2. the third season has simon pegg in it, and the first has nick frost. plus bill bailey reminded me of hot fuzz which also reminded me of the aforementioned actors which led to pondering about Paul. there you have it, such was my train of thought concerning the matter.
