I took Riley to the vet on Friday. He’s had some weird scab on the inside of his right thigh since sometime before Memorial Day and it hasn’t shown any sign of clearing up at all. I’m pretty sure if anyone - human or otherwise - has a scab that sits around for that long, [...]

Riley turned three yesterday. My baby puppy is so big now.
I worry about him getting old. I worry enough now when he’s just a little boy and weird things happen, but I know once he starts getting up there, every little thing he does will scare the crap out of me.
A couple of weeks ago, [...]

Riley’s on Purina’s PetChart today. It’s kinda the cutest thing ever.
And, really, that is all.

Riley has a new best friend, I’m pretty sure. His name’s Kentucky, and he’s pretty much the second most adorable boxer in the entire world. And tonight, Riley and Kentucky discovered something they have in common: running through a swamp as the sun sets. Post-dog park tonight required a bath, which turned into a shower, [...]

Don’t forget to sign up for Revolution Money Exchange, if you want $25 in your bank account in 2-3 business days. Here’s the original post I made. Jenni sent me some money the other day for some baseball tickets I picked up and it worked like a charm.
Rick’s going to be here next week for [...]

You can file this under TMI if you want, but that’s not gonna stop me from writing it. You should know that by now.
Just now, I’m minding my own business, doing some Sudoku¹ . And I hear my cell phone ringing. I’m clearly in no place to answer it and they created voicemail for a [...]

When Riley and I moved into our last apartment, we had to switch vets. I was a little worried, mainly because I didn’t know anyone in Eagan that could recommend one and I knew I needed one close by, based solely on the fact that I was (and still am) a paranoid pet owner. Riley’s [...]

I got a letter today from my new apartment’s management company saying I owed them 80 cents. I found it a big peculiar, but decided not to get mad about it until I’d actually talked to them about it. I left a voicemail maybe around 2 pm today. I just got a phone call back [...]

You know how they say animals don’t do things just to get back at you? I call bullshit on that.
Riley had to stay in my parents garage while I was visiting. While there, he trashed the place. He knocked over ladders, plastic boxers, and almost entirely cleaned off my dad’s workbench. He doesn’t do this [...]

If ever there was a time Riley was going to eat my face off while I sleep, tonight would be the night.
I put taking Riley off to the vet for a couple of weeks. I was hoping his ear issues, mainly the fact that he scratches them so much he winds up with cuts behind [...]
