Some of you are great. Some of you, I am mad at and you are seriously buggin'. To mend our relationship, I have found the perfect product for you:
Yes! A leash. Not only a retractable leash, but one with a bag dispenser. Now, I haven't had to look hard to notice that many of you have neither. Yes, on my last run, 3 dogs ran right up to me. (I can see that the owners are thinking, "Who doesn't love having a cute sweet dog like mine run up and sniff them??" The answer is: many people. I suggest waiting for the other person to invite the leashed dog over if they really want to pet them or to be sniffed.) On my run with Suzy a vicious mutt came running and snarling at us from a neighboring home. Yikes! I had to pull out my old missionary trick and bend down like I was grabbing a rock. Works like a charm most of the time.
Don't get me wrong, people- I am a true dog lover too! Just ask me about Missy, Cookie, Daisy and Sasha. I love to pet and play with dogs just like you do, but I'll be darned if I want them tripping me while I'm running, barreling toward me for sniffing/jumping/growling purposes, or pooping in my path. People! Pick up the poop! This means you will have to bring bags. Yes, it's a little gross to pick up your dogs warm poo, but it's the law, and it's making the trails disgusting.
Well, I think I've made my point. (In case you missed it- leashes and poop bags.)
Moving on, aren't the new Blogger editing changes nice, my fellow bloggers? (If you don't have them yet, you have to change yours under Settings.) Although I can't figure out how to use spell check or upload a video without going back to the old ways. I've also added some random new widgets to the blog, but it's a work in progress, so bear with me.
Yes, I had to confess to Matt this morning that I dreamed I was one of the contestants on the Bachelor. But! The guy's name was Matt. It was me vs. Vienna and Ali, and I was way behind. I had just joined the show and was plotting my plan, and texting "Matt" flirty things. What a nerd! I am so into the show though! I am rooting for anyone but Vienna- she has a bad vibe, man. And Jake's blinded by his sexual attraction to her, no mas. See Erica's post on her HERE. (My sister's friend.)
Lastly, I want some advice- what is up with my chronically tight calves? Advice??
XOXO
