New Nickname - Peepeelani

My mom went to Hawaii and she brought me an awesome new surfer-style collar and a stuffed shark. I've already taken the stuffing out of the shark of course. Guess what? I also got a new nickname. Everyone calls me "P" or "Pee" or "Pee Pee" because I love to pee! It's my favorite thing in the whole world. I can be passed out asleep, snoring and if I hear the word "pee" I jump up and run to the back door. When I go to the park I draw upon my deep reserves and pee as many times as possible, in as many places as possible. Anyway, in Hawaii, my mom saw a street called "Peepeelani" and decided that should be my new Hawaiian nickname. I am soooooo happy my mom is back.

Dog-o-ween 2006

I had the best time ever! Okay, I hated the wig on my Pocahontas costume, but once I shook off the braids I was in heaven! I was totally into the beaded jingle-jangles my mom put on my paws. I liked the leather skirt with feathers too. I had a point of shaking my butt. My sister Brandi looked so great in her Tigger costume. We partied like crazy. Dog-o-ween is awesome.

Seaweed Makes Me Puke

Man, I love hunting for seaweed. The only problem is that I swallow a lot of salt water when I'm diving for it. My mom can't believe I've been throwing up so much and I still won't give up the seaweed. I think she's still mad about the bacon grease incident. She still won't even *talk* about the bacon grease incident. I say, what's the big deal about another trip to the emergency after-hours vet? The only embarassing part was the hydration shots they gave me. I looked like a a mutant camel. When I woke up the next day the humps had shifted around to my neck and belly.

I discovered a new favorite game!

So... I found a fun new game to play! When my mom takes me for walks at the beach, I swim alongside the shore and look down while I'm doing my little dog paddle. When I see a glob of seaweed I duck-dive underwater and come up with a mouthful of yummy greens. I suck up the seaweed like spaghetti! I don't want anything to do with that gross dried stuff on the beach (except maybe as perfume.) I'm so excited that I have a new game to play at the beach! I barely have time to chase birds or steal people's food now that I've discovered seaweed hunting.
