RIP Bogcedes

Aw, shucks Bogcedes.  We’ve had a LOT of good times together. I was pretty sad that mama said we’d have to sell the Bogcedes.  It was dad’s car, and I always felt safe either riding in the navigator’s seat or in the back as the CEO.  Always felt safe with dad at the wheel, and…

I (Don’t) Love a Parade

The Portland Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade started in my neighborhood this morning. While I was at first intrigued, I was ultimately displeased.  All of those drummers were hurtin’ my ears. Even though we tried to go around it, we just couldn’t get away fast enough. Crazy costumes, loud noises, and lots of people.  Oh goody goody…

Ladybug Ladybug

Then she put her key…

Some Enchanted Evening

Land of the Atomic Booty Scratch

Stanley’s mama is an EXCELLENT booty scratcher.  And chin-action giver.  And present chooser.  But I have talents too… Yes I will allow you to try to teach me about sticks.  I will even play the eager student. Until you drop it and I place the mighty Paw of Doom upon it.  Then it’s mine. Catch…
