Riley, my little puppy that’s currently sniffing my leg, is a shedder. A bad shedder. My backseat, which is his seat, is covered in short little white hairs. My couch, which is a chocolate brown color, is also covered in short little white hairs. All of my clothes, even the ones that are hanging in [...]

Man, after Sidney Ponson threw like a douchebag off the mound against the Yankees last night, I knew I had to get a ticket for tonight’s game. Ahh, baseball during a winter weather advisory. I don’t see how it could get any better.
Speaking of baseball (okay, not really), I got home from work last night [...]

My dog, the one that’s wearing a collar from Old Navy, had an appointment with the groomer today. I brought him in and was a bit concerned when I didn’t recognize any of the groomers at all. There’s not much you can do, though, to mess up grooming my dog. His hair doesn’t need to [...]

1.) 2:50 a.m. is not an early bedtime. I don’t know why I always try to convince myself that I’ll go to bed early when I know I won’t! Unless we’re on like Chinese time or something. Then it’s gotta be early, right?
2.) I have a super big uncontrollable crush on this bartender at the [...]

You know, I posted this picture of Riley yesterday, because I thought it was adorable how he was holding his cow in front of him and actually looking at the camera for once.
But you know when the whole cow thing went from just plain cute to slightly overboard? Last night.
Our nightly routine goes like this. [...]

Tuesdays are my work from home days, which means one 70+ pound dog that I live with gets to sleep on the couch all days, as opposed to sleeping in his kennel that’s padded with three pillows and one of my t-shirts. I don’t mind him on my couch (or the rest of my furniture [...]

I took Riley out for lunch on Tuesday (my work from home day) and let him run and run and run and run and run in the park across the street from me. During the day, it’s empty, so he has the best day ever making giant circles all the way around the whole place. [...]

You may remember the red baseball collar I bought for Little Riley Pants three months ago. It’s cute and it’s perfect for him in every way possible. Everyone always says, “Oh, do you like baseball?” when they talk to him in their coochie-coochie-coo baby voice, and of course, I always answer with, “Why, yes. Yes, [...]

It’s got to be completely appropriate and responsible for me, as a dog owner, to let my dog play with a stuffed severed monkey arm and an empty frosting container. I didn’t really know about the frosting container that he’d pulled out of the trash some time ago, because he’d been hiding [...]

You know how I joke around about how Little Gay Riley Pants might be, well, gay?
Science says it could happen.
There’s his loves for sweaters, his penchant for pretty bandanas, the way he likes to hold hands when I get home from work, and even the he only humps other male dogs, so I’ve always had [...]
