bionic dog

gosh, it's been an expensive and tiring few days with the pup. jackster had an obstruction in his duodenum. basically a square chard of a bone that punctured (and was stuck) in his digestion tube thingy. ew and painful. poor kid spent two nights in the doggy hospital. thankfully he's home and now transmits frequencies through the satellite they stuck around his neck. he looks silly and i know niko is quietly taunting him in doggy speak but jackster is too high on pain meds to care.

so we got it - the house on the beach. our little slice of beach heaven for us to visit at any time we want. i can surf, skate, sunbathe, walk the trails of a beautiful state park, spend time with the lady, chillax with the pups, watch the sunrise and sunset on the beach to my heart's content. life can't get any better than this. it's a little 1930's surf cottage yearning for our attention. she giggles but one day i want to make it on the pages of 'coastal living' mag. dammit, it will happen. i have that much faith in our renovating and decorating skills. i'll be sure to use this blog to update folks. i'm totally stoked...

i swear i purposefully try to leave random weekends free in the calendar but things pop up. it's a never ending cycle. the house inspection is this weekend and thankfully that's all that's planned. next week is the big 4th event that i'm sure i'll be needing a few tall ones afterwards to recoup. those big events are killer. i also have a solo gig to prep for - per usual hoping not to suck. attempting not to suck is not an easy thing. it's harder than it looks ;) thankfully it's a profession where drinking on the job is socially acceptable. nice.

alas, i'm slowly winding down. the dogs are a snor'n and the lady keeps yawning; a combination that heeds the nightly turn down routine.
