Tuesday ramblings

I needed a little pick-me-up today, so I started looking through photos. This one made me smile the biggest. Duke has a girlfriend. Her name is Shawmut and she's got pedigree. Fancy shmancy. He scored himself a real lady. They both have scary zombie eyes in this photo, but rest assured, in real life they're not ocularly challenged. Whenever she comes over Duke chases her around the apartment and she "hides" from him under chairs, just to jump out at him when he gets close. It's really the sweetest thing in the world.


This was the first runner-up in the smile contest. Matthew thought it would be hilarious if Duke wore my beloved pashmina around the house. I am never without this thing. Winter time? Constantly around my neck. Summer time? In my bag in case the air conditioning is too cold. It's like my adult security blanket. Funny enough, Duke happily sat there while he got wrapped up and then wore it around for about 15 minutes. Matthew called him "Mother Dukeresa". I almost peed from laughing.


The is the second runner-up photo. These are little owls I've been making recently. I decided that wisdom is something to be on the lookout for in 2008. Owls being the wise symbols that they are, I wanted to create a flock of them to keep me company in the apartment. There were many more, but they've been distributed to family and friends in the last few days. I'll add to the flock again soon. Hoot, hoot!
