Edmund the DogJanuary 30th 2006 |
24 |

We have yet another dog. His name is Edmund and he is about the size of my foot. I woke up on Saturday morning to the faint "yelping" sound coming from outside of my door. When I rolled out of bed and opened the door, I was floored by the tiny little white rat that was bitting at my dad's toes. I stood there in blurry-eyed shock for a moment trying to reason in my head if it was possible for a dog to be that small. After all, I had just woke up, maybe I was still dreaming... but no, it was a REAL nightmare. (Just kidding, maybe not a "nightmare," but I wasn't exactly jumping for joy either.) Aslan seems to like Edmund a whole lot. They are playmates... er, "play buddies." I have posted some videos of the two of them going at it. I have also posted some picturesof the two playing around.
After my third time doing Pilates, I can say that I feel like a can bend into new positions that I was never able to bend into before. I particularly enjoy this class that I am in because there are only about four or five people in the class so when you do something embarrassing, like make a bodily function sound, everyone knows who it is. We all know how hard it is to "hold gas in" when your body is in a "W" shape. Well, today there was someone who apparently had too many celery sticks the night before. As we were on our backs, curled into a ball, there was a reverberating sound that echoed throughout the room. It was one of those, "Holy crap, I can't hold it in!" farts. No one reacted to the obvious sound coming from the corner of the room, but I was laughing so hard inside. I hope I am always able to contain myself. A few minutes later, as we had our legs straight up in the air, another nervous "riiip," slipped out from this person's stressed body. I don't know what I would do if I started laughing uncontrollably once someone ripped a big one. Maybe I will have no choice but to belly-laugh non-stop for hours. I know Steve would start laughing too. That would make the person who "let it out" feel really badly. HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ok, ok, since we're on the topic of bathroom humor, I have to tell you this one. Today at work, Chase (the boss) ran to the bathroom to "do number 2." Right after he left, a client called for him, so I did an "all page" through the building to see if I could catch him before he went in. After about a minute, Chase didn't take the call so I told the client that Chase would call him back in just a few minutes. As soon as I hung up the phone, I hear someone running through the halls toward Chase's office. Next I see a blurry Chase fly passed my office door with wet hands and practically pulling up is pants. I yelled over to him, "Oh Chase, I told them that you would call them right back." I hear the running stop. Then Chase sticks his head into my office and gives me this look (oh man, I so wish that I had my camera) as if to say, "You've got to be kidding me." Well, by this point, Gabe (a guy I work with) and I can't hold it in, we BUST into laughter as Chase walks back to the bathroom shaking his head in disbelief.

William makes a good point, and I stand corrected. Sam does have friends! As you should know, I am famous for giving a distorted sense of things. It is truly a shame that so many others did not come to Sam's defense. Even Sam did not defend himself! However, this is nothing new to me. Humans have this particularly odd tendency not to question anything I say...
