Jun. 7th, 2006 11:32 amQuick question first: what do you do when there's someone on your flist making really bad decisions, and knowing they're making bad decisions and sorta-laughing about how dumb they are, and not stopping? Do you confront them? Delete them? Or just skim their posts and wince and keep your fingers crossed for them?
It's now Day 4 of Deb being away in Seattle having adventures with bears and me schlumfing around the house with a borrowed X-box and two dogs trying to telepathically manipulate me into maxing out my credit card on meatzza pizzas and cheesy bread. (Like that takes much convincing.) It's fascinating how we reinforce each others' bad behavior...for example, with Deb gone, NONE of us like rain. There've been a couple times this week where we've gotten all saddled up for walks, gotten the leashes, the harnesses, the bags, gotten as far as the porch...and come to a quick unspoken consensus to go back inside and try again an hour later when we saw how wet it was outside.
I've been sleeping on the 'guest bed', an air mattress in the living room (for easier access to the TV and the X-box, of course); we seem to've come to an agreement that when the mattress is fully inflated it's my territory, but once it's half-deflated or more (which takes about four hours) it's Dogland. Toby in particular LOVES it half-inflated...I think it makes him feel like he's tough enough to make craters wherever he steps.

I'll even bring something to add to the table...I've got all kinds of cool cookbooks. But, on the other hand...you, Deb, and Rob could come over to my place sometime soon and partake of food off of my shiney new plates.
They definately make me smile on these disgusting days.
