I'll never stop asking questions and wondering who, what, when where and why. I'm always trying to get the answers. I'll share them with you.

There’s a Ladybug in My Tea

Posted By ê¿ê on January 8th, 2009

There’s a Ladybug in my tea
I wonder does she think it’s a sea?
Can Ladybugs swim?
Was it just a whim?
That got a Ladybug in my tea.

There’s a Ladybug in my tea
I wonder was it just for me
Or was it the scent of Earl Grey
That enticed her over that way
And put a Ladybug in my tea.
There’s a [...]

Making Baby

No, this post isn’t going to be about sex.

Sorry to disappoint, but I thought that in all fairness I should get that disclaimer out right away. I wouldn’t want any of you to be reading this under false pretenses and then feel cheated somehow when you got to the end and realized there was no spicy, juicy much less explicit anything.

No, this is just another rant from me, your favorite dog-loving, people-hating curmudgeon.

So, if it’s not about sex then just what am I ranting about today you might ask (since you’ve read this far, I guess you’re down for the count so I might as well make this good).

It’s about stupid, ignoramuses who put clothes on their dogs.

I’m not talking about the occasional Halloween costume, or once-in-a-blue-moon photo shoot either. I’m talking about the nutcases who think the dog is NAKED if it’s not wearing the latest in doggy dressups. This phenomenon has become so prevalent that there is now an entire freaking DEPARTMENT IN PETSMART for doggie apparel!!!!!!

Now I can confess to hitting up the thrift store for used baby clothes to dress the dog up for a costume contest or I even once upon a time had this brainstorm for a relay race game to play at a party where you had to race to a pile of clothes in the floor, dress your dog in a top and a bottom, then race back to the finish line with the clothes intact on the dog. You were not allowed to pick the dog up either, it had to make it back on all 4 paws and it’s own steam. That was hilarious fun and I’ll have to trot it out again at the next dog party I organize.

I’ll even confess to putting t-shirts on the Cresteds (the hairless ones, not the puffs) in cooler weather and of course the Whippets have their coats to wear outdoors when the weather turns frosty. THAT is not the type clothing of which this rant is all about. No, it’s the dresses, jogging outfits and pajamas that are made just for dogs that I’m referring to and the nutty owners who insist on Fido wearing these fashions every day, day-in-day-out. It’s like the dog is now some kind of dress-up baby doll or something.

People PULEEZE! Dogs are DOGS and most of them come with perfectly adequate coverings made of hair called FUR. These covertings are perfect for all weather conditions and social occasions, trust me.
