Puppy Class (Hoomans only)
BACKGROUND: This is Winter our new puppy. She is a Swiss Shepherd and is now best friend to Molly, our other puppy (She's actually 4 but still our puppy). So with that over with I will now explain the "hooman" part...
2 weeks ago (yes I'm a slow Blogger) I took Molly and Winter to the vet for various needles, painkillers, urine tests and other such things. After I was molested with a $650 bill the receptionist asked if I would like to enroll Winter to the next Puppy Class.
After my dismal failure with Molly in Puppy Class I thought I would take the opportunity to redeem myself with "child 2".
"Oh, it starts in 2 days, Ohhh greeaaaat. Yes of course I will be there." (gulp)
It turns out the first session was for Humans only. This immediately sucked all the fun out of the event. No cute puppies to coo over. No hilarious antics involving play tumbles and poo. Nope this was going to be a "learning experience" a lot like a class. My first thought was "Oh god, how am I going to tell Mr Finklestink he has to go to a class on his only day off?". I bought beer and chocolate on the way home.
So off we went, Sunday morning, caffeined up and ready to roll. The instructor was an "alternative eco type" (as in never seen a razor before) who was very knowledgeable about canine behaviour. She was very informative and engaging... I couldn't stop staring at her legs.
Mr Finklestink was having some serious attention issues after the first 30 minutes. Knowing him for so long I could read the subtle signs of the foot tapping, sighing, squirming in his seat and screams of "Can we f&*@ing go now?". I could tell he was restless.
However I was going to learn as much as I could...legs... and be the have Winter trained... legs... with the self discipline and obedience... legs... of a police dog. So I avoided the murderous sideways glances from Mr Finklestink as I asked more questions and talked about my experiences and failures with the class.
The class went 30 minutes overtime and we got HOMEWORK!
We went over expectations for the next session and said our goodbyes. I was determined to be the star student. I was going to study and... legs... practice before the next session. I did all that 30 minutes before the next session... legs.

And so it begins...
While I wait for my phone to back-up I think to myself... "Gee, I have a computer, I have the Internet, why not create a blog?"
You see, it truly is all about me at this moment. I have decided that the many avenues of communication I use (anything to avoid face to face) can be streamlined into this one blog.
Hopefully in the future I can answer all questions such as;
"What have you been up to?",
"What's happening with you these days?" and
"What's up?"
with a simple, "Check my blog."
Somehow I don't think that is going to work. :(
