Being obedient

We ended up bringing Alfie to Obedience School last night. What an overwhelming experience, that was! He ended up barking at a lot of the dogs — but mostly because he was never around dogs much in his 3 months of being alive. He even took a poop, and pee inside!! I couldn’t stop laughing, and I was turning red because I wasn’t sure what to do because the assistant wouldn’t let us stop Alfie from STARTING to poop, because we noticed his butt was curled down. Which means, it’s coming out any minute! I’m not sure what that was all about.

I woke up at 6:30 this morning, but I must have been exhausted, and went back to bed at 7:30 for another half hour (enough beauty sleep = the best  treatment for wrinkles).

So. We’ll see how he ends up doing throughout the week. 3 more classes left, if we decide to continue to advance to Level I.

But anyway, I’d like to wish everyone good luck and I hope I win. Heehe.

Lost a finger?

pizza

I came across this a while ago and saved it as a draft. I decided to post it today, seeing as we’re having pizza tonight. Why not a nice home cooked meal you say? Tonight is the first night of Alfie’s obedience school and we want to eat after we get home at 5:00, and we have to be out the door for his 6:30 class! So fab. He better behave. :)

Have you made an at home frozen store bought pizza and have the crust be so crispy (the good way), that you hold onto it with one hand and slice it with the other — only to nearly lose grip and almost slice your fingers off? I’m not exaggerating when I say that it happens to me every time I pop a pizza in the oven. I always get the Boyf to run the pizza cutter over the pizza because I’m that paranoid. Dangerous tools. So,  since I still have all my fingers I was browsing on this website I thought this was a neat invention of “pizza scissors” and too cute, not to share.  Someone should buy it for me. lol. It’d definitely be a useful tool to have. Of course it’s only available in some European country though. Whatevs. It’s almost like a piece of modern furniture, except you wouldn’t want to sit on it…
