All this BAD STUFF!

Ok, so I'm pretty upset about some stuff going on: Nuclear meltdown, tsunamis, earthquakes, and my buddy Joe Stains is sick. I'm kind of speechless about the last one. But Joe said I'm not supposed to be upset because he's feeling pretty good. So I'm not gonna be upset, ok, Joe?
But I'm still sending some healing vibes.

Guess who's not invited to Hawaii!

So my mom and dad are preparing for vacation which is totally exciting because I love vacation, but then they explained to me that I CAN'T GO!!!! because they don't want to stick me in cargo because I'm 22lbs now and Hawaii doesn't have rabies but neither do I. And I guess there is tons of crazy paperwork and rabies titers and all that crap, so I have to stay home alone, all by myself, just me and the cats and the fish, fending for ourselves and starving to death. (Ike's mom here: his grandma will be here the whole time. She's retired and hangs out with him all day. If she goes shopping, he goes shopping. Drama.)
Ok, so my mom spilled the beans about my grandma being here, but get this - she doesn't let me sleep in her bed! I have this scrap of pillow on the hard cold floor where I curl up and try to keep warm. (Ike's mom here: he has a large pillow on a carpeted floor and his grandma put another pillow against the wall so he doesn't ever have to touch a cold wall.)
And the worst part is my mom and dad are meeting my Auntie Kat and Uncle Ansel who I haven't seen in ages and ages! All they talk about is Hawaii, this and Hawaii that and what are they gonna bring and what do they want to see without me. Sob.
Please take me with you!

Where have you been, Ike?

Ok, so blogging seems to have gone out of fashion in these parts. My mom got an Android phone and it's like the most important thing in the world to her. It's obviously more important than blogging or looking at dog blogs or anything else. It seems like we are only going to do holiday posts from now on. Sheesh! I've just been laying around getting fat because I hate the rain and won't do walkies in it. So here are some pics from my mom's cool new phone.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Merry X-mas Everypup!

So my dad designed this picture of me to have silk-screened on a sweatshirt for my mom. How cool is that?!? (He will take the x-mas part off.)

It's Christmas!

Hope your Christmas is worth roaching about!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!

My mom was totally too lazy to put me in an old card like she does every year, so she made this instead. Hrmph.

My Auntie Pup

So, my Auntie Pup Ruby is heading to heaven soon. She has something wrong with her blood, and it can't be fixed. She and I never really got along all that well, but I know some people who will really miss her - especially my Grandpa. So godspeed Pookie, Pearl's waiting for you!

This is Ruby as a wee baby.

And this is what she looks like today - she's looking for her long-lost BFF, Pearl.
