10 things I love that begin with "P"


Boy, it took Harry a long time to come up with 10 "R" things. Hopefully that's just cause he's not great at spelling and I'll have no problem with "P".

1. Pugs! Obvious I know, but so true. I'm suspicious of anyone who doesn't love pugs. They are so sweet and funny and loving. My life is so much better because of Harry Puglicious.

2. Peanut butter. I eat it straight off the spoon, on crackers, on celery, peanut butter & banana sandwiches, pb & apples. Yummy peanutty goodness.

3. Purple. By far, my favorite color.

4. Pie. I rarely eat pie, but I do love it. This time of year I start craving apple pie but I love almost all pies. Especially cream pies... yum! Banana cream, chocolate cream, coconut cream.... my mouth is watering!

5. Pansies. The happiest flower ever.

6. Pens. I rarely put pen to paper anymore, but I love a good pen. What's more, I really dislike a bad pen. If someone hands me one of those icky blue ink cheap Bic pens I have trouble putting it in my hand, like it has cooties or something.

7. Presents. Who doesn't like a present? I actually love giving presents as much as receiving. There's such a joy that comes with finding something someone really loves and hadn't thought to buy for themselves.

8. Privacy.

9. Panties. Well, lingerie in general. I don't know why - there's certainly no one around to see it but I love buying new undies! (So much for privacy, huh?)

10. Purple Haze. As in, Abita Purple Haze beer from Louisiana. It's my favorite!

Send me and Harry a comment if you would like to play and we'll send you a letter!

10 things I love that begin with "R"

So, Rukia and Napoleon's Mom had this great post and she said we could play too! She gave us a letter (I got R) and you have to name 10 things you love that start with that letter. Fun!

1. Remote controls. They are so much fun to chew on!

2. Rides in the car. I know sometimes the ride goes to the vet instead of some place fun, but I still love them!

3. Reindeer head. Reindeer head is one of my stuffies. My girlfriends Laila and Maggie gave him to me last Christmas. Mom says he's not supposed to come out except at Christmas, but I play with him anyway.

4. Rescues. This is probably my favorite thing cause rescue is how I got placed with my Mom.

5. Reed. She's the little girl who lives around the corner from me. We sees her on walks and she plays with me. She even named her stuffed pug Harry!

6. Rojo. My favoritest restaurant in all of Birmingham! I love when me and Mom go eat lunch there. Especially if someone orders bacon!

7. Running. I loves to run, especially around in big circles. I really like running after Midi. That's so much fun!

8. Road trips. I know that's riding in the car and I said that already but it's so much more than just a car ride. It's a trip! It's lots of time sitting next to my Mom. It's also definitely gonna be a car ride to someplace great! Usually it means I'm going to see my grandparents. Sometimes it means Pugfest! Road trips rule!

9. Rinkles. What? That's not how you spell it? It's how I spell it and I loves my rinkles!

10. Resting. I loves to rest, especially when it's in my Mom's lap.

Watch for Mom's post. She got "P" ::Snort::!!

Here's what my picture looked like originally.



And here's what we were going for.

Award! and Common Threads

First, I gots an award!!! Puddleglum gave me this awesome award. He's so nice.




Keeping in the spirit of those who have received it before me, I'll nominate those who commented on my last post, well at least those who don't already have it. Emmitt, Roxy and Lucky, and The Puppies!

I's had a lots of time to think about my blogging buddies while I been gettin over my surgery. So, I thought it would be fun to list some common threads between us (me and Mom) and our blogger friends.

Manicdote - Rufi and Napolean: They lives in Alabama and we lives in Alabama. Hopefully we'll get to meet some day!

Coco - Coco lives in South Florida and my Mom lived in South Florida for a year. But that was a long time before me.

Puddleglum - NFL!!!! Even though we roots for the different teams, we share a love for the pros. AND we both roots for Reggie Bush 'cause he's on Puddy's Dad's fantasy team!

The Puppies - we's live in the same city! I know we'll get to meet some day. And all of you know how I love boxers!

Good Boy Norman Featherstone - his Mom lived in Mobile and my Mom is from Mobile. They also both went to the same college (Mom says "Go Jags" but there's lots of sarcasm in her voice).

Anybody else have common threads with your fellow bloggers?

Alien Cone



Hey pugs and people. I'm feeling better today. Mom and I gots a good night's sleep last night. This morning I went on my normal walk, although sniffing trees was a lot harder with this alien cone on my head. Mom gave me breakfast before we walked which is unusual, but I did not mind. I had some trouble eating from my food bowl so Mom fed me by hand.

I am NOT milking this - it's hard to eat with your head in a cone!

So, anyway. I ate and Mom gave me my yummy stinky treats plus my regular treats! (Note from Harry's Mom: stinky treats are pill pockets) Mom tried to put some stuff in my eyes but I wouldn't let her. Hasn't she done enough already??
(Note from Harry's Mom: If anyone has hints on how to get eyedrops into a stubborn pug's eyes I'm all ears!)

I'm being banished to my crate today, I don't know why. So, I'll try to update you again soon. In the meantime, here's some pictures of my misery.

Nip/Tuck Day

A Post from Harry's Mom

I took Harry to the vet this morning for his surgery. The vet is going to fix his lower lids so the don't roll in, freeze some hair follicles and close his eyes a little so they will close all the way when he is sleeping.

It was so hard to leave him there, I've left him with my friends (and his girlfriends) when I've had to go out of town for work, but I've never left him at the vet. We don't know how much they remember, but I'm afraid he'll think he's being given up again. My poor boy.

Think good thoughts - I'll update the blog when I know he's out of surgery and doing well.
