Bigger is not always better

Baby and Lila were playing at the field today and I was watching them. Lila was trying to sniff Baby and Baby slapped Lila around a little. Then Lila decided to chase Baby and they both took off. Only Lila is too fat and she never did catch up.

Somebody needs to go on a diet.

My dinner tonight

Lemme see..what shall I write today..I threw up my dinner! Yes, I didn't care for the old boring boiled pork. So they fed me, then tucked into their delicious dinner, so I decided to throw mine up and ask for a little of theirs. There was nothing suitable except for the braised pork belly, which was absolutely wonderful. I was rather vocal about it, I think a girl's got to speak up for causes she's really passionate about.

Braised pork belly is good.

A business idea

Ah ma said I should go out to work and she started going on about what jobs would suit me. She decided I'm no good as a security guard since I only wag my tail at strangers. After a while, she realised I have no skills to speak of and so she said she will give me some money to start a business. You can buy kibble or cute collars/leashes and sell them to your friends, she said.

Oh please. If I'm going to sell anything to my friends, it's going to be suckling pig.

Ah ma simply doesn't have my kind of business acumen.

The life story of the maltese next door

There's this maltese from the next condo I've been terrorizing for a long time. I'll bark at it at the fence that separates our respective condos and it'll just walk fast and faster. Everytime its owner sees me, her face will fall.

Today we did it better. Fomfomfom and ah bee let go of my leash and ducked out of sight. I was free to chase the maltese as it hurried along and we bet its owner must be wondering why I was let loose on the world.

Giggles.

Great Leap Forward

Everyday they would put me in my harness and I'd be so impatient to go for my walk I'll rush forward and jump on someone before that person gets a chance to hook the leash onto my harness. Today Ah bee decided this maneuver needs a name and she said henceforth it will be known as Xiaoping's Great Leap Forward.

Zzz. They think they're so clever; they can't even get their Chinese history right.

Later, I was scooting at the swings and I got my backside full of sand. So Fomfomfom rinsed me when we got home. Only she didn't do a good job and Ah bee found sand on my girl parts later at night. She very carefully dusted the sand off.

I think I might forgive her for the bad joke.

They are so displeasing

Last night ah ma and Cha went to a wedding dinner and fomfomfom simply disappeared without telling me where she went. Gallivanting, I'm sure. Anyway, I was stuck at home with ah bee and I really wasn't pleased. All that unhappiness disturbed my sleep and I didn't sleep well at all.

So this morning I decided to go on a hunger strike and start brooding. I went under the clothes rack and started sulking. They started apologizing and I thought I might forgive them.

And they got ahead of themselves and started playing plants vs zombies again. I will sulk again tomorrow.

So many children

I was joined on my walk by Amanda, Eliza, Nicky, Ben, Sam, Keira, Rachel and Alexis. 8 screaming kids and 4 adults.

That is quite the entourage. Baby and her mummy were so surprised when they saw all of us together. Impressed too. I think that settles it - I am top dog in this condo.

My night adventure

I met Bunny 3 times during my evening walk today. And they brought me home when I really still wanted to play with Bunny again, so I kept looking at the door and asking fomfomfom to follow me. It didn't work; all I got was a lot of kisses and a belly rub. Finally I decided to scratch the door and fomfomfom couldn't decide what was wrong with me so she brought me down for a walk again. In case I had a bad stomach.

Bunny had already gone home by then, but it was real fun. It was pitch dark but a hive of activity; the tennis courts and basketball court were full of people. I met my friends Leila, Janice, Mimi and Freddy. It was like a party. I never knew.

And when we returned after 40 minutes, we found ah ma making foochow dumplings, and guess who had much more than a couple? Giggles.

I am too tired.

Herbivores and carnivores

They had salad for lunch today. And I had suckling pig.

This is the way it should be. Suckling pig for lunch, a belly rub and an afternoon nap. I got a good lot.

Plants and vegetables are for rabbits

They're all still playing plants vs zombies. All the time. It may have something to do with ah bee's declaration that they'll be having salad for lunch tomorrow. They told me to choose a salad too, from about a thousand ingredients, but I snorted and walked away.

I have suckling pig for all next week's lunch, thank you very much.
