Things are not always as they seem

Posted in Briscoe, dogs on November 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Yesterday, I noticed tha Briscoe’s eye lashes were matted. But her eye didn’t look red, and it didn’t seem to be bothering her, so I decided it was probably just dust or allergies. This morning her eye was much more matted, and upon closer inspection, swollen. So I called the vet to make sure they [...]

The road to hell

Posted in Augusta, Briscoe, Current Affairs, dogs on September 14, 2009 | 1 Comment »

I had great intentions of having lots of interesting and funny things to say tonight, but then I got really distracted by this blog – Strange Maps. I love maps. That, coupled with the fact that my laptop is on his last leg and the keyboard only works when tilted a little forward, has sort [...]

Adventures in Babysitting

I have been dog sitting for my parents for the past week. Bo and Bella are kind of ridiculous dogs, but I love them and they have been trying to be cooperative, but mother nature has been making this very difficult. I went to sleep early on Monday night, and Briscoe was upstairs with me. [...]

I obviously have some authority issues. As a child, adults didn’t really love me. Part of this was that I was the most hyperactive child in America (so no one ever let me baby sit growing up), and I thought a lot. One time when I was 4 I told my mom we needed to [...]

The State Bird of South Carolina –

Is the Palmetto Bug. A.K.A. The Flying Roach. I can deal with a whole lot of things, and flying roaches are not on that list. They make me die a little inside every time one gets close to me. Which is unfortunate, since I come in close contact with them on a regular basis these [...]

Partly Cloudy Skies With a Slight Chance of Injury

Y’all would not believe the weather around here (unless of course you live here and have been experiencing it with me). It has been COLD this week. COLD! In MAY! The May I was in Grand Lake it snowed half a foot on May 23, and I literally thought I was going to die. I [...]

Foggy Muddy Pawprints

Posted in Briscoe, Weather, dogs on January 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Yesterday was something of a disaster. My flight got in from New York late Sunday night, and I was exhausted when I woke up Monday morning. In order to stay in bed for three more minutes I checked out the weather on my phone. The weather channel said it was FOGGY, but only a 10% [...]
