    I used to hold our dog like she was dangerous when the doorbell rang or I was out walking her in the evening. I figured they probably would look for someone without a dog first. DD had a HUGE German shepherd. She was totally unafraid to walk her at night. I'm sure that dog would have defended her. Woe be to the mugger.

    People always thought Rocco was scary.  I never had a problem walking him in NYC at night. People would cross the street to avoid us!  Big black dogs always look scary to people.

    My 12 year old son is having his birthday party downstairs.....just one hour left (who's counting). They are hilarious.

    They were discussing religion...followed by a conversations about farting! Boys!!!!

    They keep getting louder, not a problem, except my 13 year old daughter was home with a bad head ache today.

    They alternate between sounding like a pack of hyenas and then like the boys on Big Bang Theory.

    Andrea….Lorena moment, bahahaha so funny!  

    I want one of those signs that have a pic of a doberman or rottie and say "I can make it to the gate in 5 seconds, can you?" or something like that!

    Andrea, I would be eavesdropping on those boys for my own entertainment.  I love listening in when my two don't realise.

    Helenna, a sign like that would be hilarious.

    Glennie, I too love the peanut butter pics.   Oh, I miss peanut butter, my kids are allergic to peanuts, so I can't have it it the house :(    Or eggs, thankfully they have grown out of dairy and soy allergies, that was tough.

    I think Zills kids have allergies too?

    when I lived in the Rocky Mountains (in my twenties) I had a Great White Pyranese who was just a gentle giant.

    One day a service man came into the back yard unannounced and asked if the dog bites. I said "Only when I tell her to."

    I was being so tough!! In fact she would probably have knocked him down and licked his face.

    Religion and farts. Very cosmopolitan indeed.

    Dawny  is it just peanut butter as you can now find all kinds of "butters" now……almond, sunflower, cashew, you name it! Are you a vitamix girl? Have not tried making any butters in my vitamix yet but I hear it whips up p. butter in seconds and so tasty and pure. Will be trying that soon.

    OMG, I am peeing myself laughing.  (To dawny)  Hi Betty!  (My arms waving to her thighs)

    M is making me laugh because my Betty arms, waving, smacked her in the face!  Susan is making me laugh because our Betty arms and fat places are making her hungry, which makes me scared SHE IS GOING TO EAT THE FAT LUMPS OFF MY BETTY ARMS!  SUSAN!  You are savage! :) I swear, Susan is an excellent addition to our band of .. of.. I hardly know how to describe us.

    Andrea is making me laugh because she is counting the minutes until the end of the party.  ** bad hostess** I swear, I would never have a party at my house for my son.  When he is twelve, he can have his party at Pizza Hut.  And DP is making me laugh because she is thinking of making jalapeno buffalo chicken macaroni and cheese!

    Birdie is making me laugh... Birdie... are those reports jokes?  I hardly want to ask (I am punchy tired) and I know that being  mugged is a serious business, but... they sounded like jokes.  My son does not have a gay phone -- I don't let them have phones -- but he has gay pants.

    I got my yoga teacher fired today.  I just decided I had had it up to here.  **not very yogic**

    Rocco and Ava are so cute!  I can barely stand it.  Cannot believe I have not met Ava yet!

    Andrea….love great pyrennes! They look like polar bears. There is a fantastic G.P. rescue in Indy, husband and wife that are amazing with rehoming those guys. I guess they are escape artists so alot of them end up lost.  Beautiful dogs. Any pics?

    They can now have any other nuts, besides peanuts.  Which is great, at one time we couldn't have nuts of any type.  I have tried other butters, I do like some, but I really miss peanut butter.  Which is probably good, because it would eat it in excess, straight out of the jar.

    Ok Andrea, time is up on those boys!  Only if they are picked up right on time tho.  What did you feed them all?

    DP, are you waking James Bond up at all hours of the night also, or does he sleep through?

    Helenna:  my friend has one of those signs,, it has the outline of a German Shepherd on it.  Only dog that ever bit me was that bitch.  She thinks the chihuahua is her pup, and thought I was threatening him in some way.  Just a warning bite,,but shit, it hurt!!  Don't ever want to tangle with her when she's really mad.  And she KNOWS me.. So bizarre. Glad you liked the PB pics.

    Andrea:  great comment!!!

    Yes, more doggie porn.  Serious tongue action. What can I say?

    Bobo:  how did you get yoga teacher fired?  Not Anisa?? Oh, no, she is Pilates, right? You must meet Ava soon.

    Gay pants,,, why are they gay?  pink?

    working again,,, back to it,,,,  popping back in later

    Oh no, not Anisa.  A sub for Anisa.  I tried to get through it by hypothesizing she had early Alzheimer's and had forgotten to plan a class.  But I couldn't keep the hypothesis going.  She was walking over to people in the class and asking them to 'pick a pose.'  Well, some of the women in that class didn't know any poses!  And there was a lot of 'Who, me?'  'Yes, you.'  OMG.  I started boiling.  And then people were picking one standing pose, and then one sitting pose, and then a standing pose, and there was just no sense to it, and it was driving me crazy!  

    And then the lady said, 'I shouldn't do this, but I'm going to look at the time.'  And then she craned her head around, very slowly and inefficiently, to view the clock behind her.  I was trying to practice my yogic breathing exercises of compassion.  And then she said, 'I have to leave at five minutes to two'  (she meant three; class started at two) 'but I don't want to you feel abandoned.'  Poor lady!  But, you know, I'd flown across town to make that class.  I had an impulse to turn and run when I first saw her, just by looking at her, but I am so sore and stiff, I thought I'd stick it out!

    Those pants are not pink, but they are gay for so many other reasons.

    oh, that's a poor teacher. No idea what she is doing. No wonder you were pissed. I would be too.

    strike a gay pants pose. 

    I also found on Pinterest 27 tator tot recipes that will change your life. Best I can tell the changes will be to your arteries but gosh they look tasty.  Still upset I didn't go back to the fair to get my vitamix last year. Will have to save up for this time. The fair had a better deal than qvc. Sadly, the soup they made at the demo was disgusting. But I know ariom will have some good recipes for me. 

    I keep bond from sleeping by not being in bed. He doesn't sleep much at night. He has really embraced naps in the last year though. Which we joke about him being old. He is only 18 years older than me. Always had a thing for older men. He's older than my mom. And her husband is 10 years older than her. Ex is 10 years older than me. Maybe it's genetic. 

    There keeps being hair stuck on my phone screen. I can't tell if it's mine or dog hair. Ewwww.

    Helenna I will search for pics. But it was 29 years ago, and in the days of film and developing photos. Wish we had always had digital cameras!!

    bobogirl: bad hostess? Au contraire!! I fed five hungry boys terrible (Little C's)pizza, chips, pop, and cake then sent them home to their parents. They all said how much they enjoyed the party. One boy even asked if we could have a party every other week.

    Not bad considering it was impromptu. My son had asked if he could have friends over on his birthday and apparently we said yes. But then promptly forgot when DH had to rush back to Canada when his dad had a bad spell  (since recovered).

    My son reminded me two days ago, so I scrambled and put this together. I only knew one of the boys before today. One boy was invited over Skype, and two boys had their invites left on their parents answering machines. I was surprised and delighted when they all showed up.
