Just over a year ago, the universe colluded with a youtube clip, and my poor heart, still bruised from losing my previous dogs, started to feel like it could stand another foray into pet ownership.
What has happened since, is a love affair with this animal, which is just this side of legally reportable.
Example 1:
(Just getting out of shower, and discovering the dog had one of his stuffed animals…)
Liam (yelling): “Sully, you get back here! You better give me that!”
Liam (muttering to himself): “I’m going to go put on some underwear, so he takes me seriously.”
Example 2:
Me: “Hey, I think the dog isn’t as freaked out by grown men anymore! He totally stopped barking at this one guy, after just a minute, and then he even licked sweat off his forehead.”
Tracy: “Um…why is a guy sweating in your house?”
Me: “He was a mover, pervert.”
Tracy: “Maybe he only likes sweaty men?”
Me: “Maybe he only likes men that take shit from our house.”
Example 3:
Caolinn: “I think the dog relates to me.”
Me: “The dog spends half his day drinking from the toilet and trying to eat pads out of the garbage.”
Caolinn: “Well…aside from that.”
He’s so adorably scruffy, and I love his stick-up ear!
When they’re both up…it’s magnificent.
sully kind of looks like a cross between a pirate and a hobo. girl 3 loves to run around naked, but since we got bandit, she’s had to be a bit more cautious. ;o) um, yeah. it’s just gross in a way neither of them are old enough to even understand.
I’m not even sure that he’s a dog. I’m 90% sure that if I looked closely enough, that I’d find Jim Henson’s hand up his ass.
so, jim Henson’s hand (weird) and jesus (weirder)?
Does it help that I assume that one is now with the other?
The visual formed from the Liam example is too wonderful. And his hysterical off-the-cuff remark, while not intended at all as a criticism directed at males, should be stitched on samplers and handed to all men at birth–They who believe their outies rate as just so perfectly precious, extra-attractive, and super-yummy, in comparison to our innies, simply because the male models have always been so magically-transforming and literally close-to-hand.
But even a child knows no one takes a guy seriously with his little bits out and dangly : )
