a visitor at work

Just when I needed a ray of sunshine in my day this precious angel showed up.

: (

He was so happy and excited it was hard to get a picture.  I think his name was Pepito.

I loved him.

its going to be a good weekend

When Linden asked me if I would mind watching Chloe for a few days while she was in the Keys I did not hesitate.  Look at her face!

: (((((

I have seriously been so excited all week for this.

When I picked her up I wasn't sure where she'd want to be for the car ride.  Apparently she just wanted to be asleep.

I seriously can't with how adorable she is.  I am afraid I am going to damage the muscles in my face by having my bottom lip curled under all weekend.

When I got home the detective was nowhere to be found.  Before I had left I asked him if he was excited to have a friend visiting for the weekend and he said, "no that sounds terrible, I hate you" before climbing on to one of the top shelves in my closet and falling asleep.  So I guess I was not surprised to find him still hiding when we arrived this afternoon.

He was still curled up in the same spot I had left him but now I could see his two glowing eyes in the darkness and his ears perked up to the max.  Chloe was snuffling around the apt so I called her over so he could see her first, from the shadows, as I know he'd prefer it.

I wanted to be here for their first interactions to make sure nothing terrible happened, but I really needed to go to the grocery store and I couldn't wait all day for the detective to finally come down from his perch.  I decided to go ahead but to try and make it a quick grocery run.

When I got home I wasn't quite sure what to expect as I opened the door.  You can imagine my reaction when I found them both sitting in the doorway together waiting for me.

: ((((((((((((

They are best best friends.

I am not getting anything done this weekend.

this precious angel came in to my work

Her name was Layla I think.  She was so well behaved when her owner was holding her but then turned in to a wiggle monster as soon as she was set down.

It took me a really long time to get a good picture but I didn't mind spending extra time with her.

I would like a nice doggy as beautiful as her.

i'm amazed at the clarity

There is really no way I could talk my way out of this, the only explanation I can come up with is that I was probably looking at street signs and didn't notice the light had blatantly turned red.

I had grand dreams of having my christmas/birthday money last me well into march but thanks to things like this ticket, or my silly electric bill, I'm almost through it already.

Today will tell if I'll have any left by the new year or not.

Anyways, I hope you all had a lovely holiday.  I caught up with some much needed chores before spending the evening with my neighbor Heather and her family.  It was really nice.  So nice I didn't think about my blog at all so this is the only picture I took all night:

It's that precious angel climbing up the decorative bamboo.  Heather tries to claim that she's bad but I don't see it.  Those were obviously placed there for her to climb up, I don't see what the problem is.

I hope I get to babysit her again.  Unfortunately I am not spending today playing with adorable kittens, I will be spending it at work.  For those of you still on vacation, enjoy.
