'Dog. Saw. Man.'

This is what George labelled this picture when he sent it to Courtney from his iPhone. It was taken up at the Walker's cottage in Coboconk, home of WCONK - Conk Radio. The town opted for 'Coby' as a nickname - I still go with 'The Conk.' I think it's much more powerful.

Atticus doesn't like it when people he feels should be inside with him are outside, or when he is kept inside when he would rather be outside, especially when he can see those people through the sliding glass door.

I was building a cat tree for the kittens and didn't want to saw indoors with a giant puppy at my heels. There's no emergency vet in Coboconk.

I'm back in Toronto, as well. I took an early train back home. Ottawa got stale - rrreeeaaalll fast.

Sir Sam Hughes and I

My answer to Marley and Me.

I had to break one of the rules of our relationship that I wouldn't abuse my power and pick him up, but dammit - as I said to Court, I knew this picture would be too good to pass up. So now I've got to win back Sir Sam Hughes trust. 

And I've only got two weeks left to do it.

Christ, I've still got two weeks left here? Damn...

Sir Sam Hughes, Bunny.

This is Sir Sam Hughes. 

He went Ape Stuff last night around midnight and knocked down his water cylinder with the ball-bearing at the end of it, and his one toy in a fit of rage. He looks at me like he wants out of this cage so badly, but I dont know if I should, and his owner (I dont know who that is, exactly) is never to be seen. So instead I walk past him down the stairs and let him sniff my arm.

If nothing else, I am a new smell in the life of Sir Sam Hughes, Bunny. Mom would be so proud...
