Killer Bunnies

One of crazy lady's earliest writings involved a clan of killer bunnies and cannibals. (Yes, I already know that she has "issues.") She recently read a very sad post about someone's beloved dog who "walked the bridge," and she will not stop with the Monty Python references. First, we had to watch the "bridge of death" scene:

Then, we killed time with this precious scene from the Holy Grail:

She's reading her killer bunny series out loud and laughing at her own jokes. I am staying in bed, until this torture ends.

Baby Bambi

We ran into this newborn critter, during our early morning walk in the woods today:I wore my e-collar, and only required 1 small zap to return to crazy lady on the trail. She had no idea what I was "hunting" until I walked her back to the baby deer, for another look. As soon as she saw the deer, crazy lady warned me to "leave it," and she said "let's go." Darn it. The compulsion to obey was greater than my desire to hunt. I was really hoping for a morning snack. I whined and barked, but followed crazy lady on the trail. She said that she is very proud of my restraint-- and very happy that I was trained to avert disaster. Crazy lady still has flashbacks to my smiling, bloody face, the last time we ran into Bambi.

Museum Adventures

Finals are done! Woo hoo! Crazy lady, the Princess and her mom spent the day at the Museum of Science. I stayed home while they played in the Discovery Room nature domes:The Princess practiced her outstanding engineering skills (after all, it runs in the family...):Isn't the final masterpiece beautiful?Then, the Princess had pizza for lunch:Overall, it was a fabulous day! I missed spending time with the family, but it gave me a chance to chill out and rest. Tomorrow? We're off to Fresh Pond for swimming and hiking!

May actually be decent, who knows?

Pure Joy and Happiness (Bye Echo!)

My best friend Echo is leaving for the wilds of Maine with her family. Her family spends the summer overseeing Camp Vega, an amazing adventure for girls. Echo gets to spend her time laying in the sun, swimming in the lake, playing with the kids, and tussling with her brother. Me? I'll be sun bathing, wrestling at the dog park, and playing with kids in Cambridge. Crazy lady is hoping that we can visit Echo and her family during the summer, but it depends on schedules. Sigh...crazy lady and her schedules... We had our last play date this morning. Do you see my butt in the air? I had just spotted Echo in the park:Crazy lady describes my reaction to Echo and her family as "pure joy and happiness." I jump up and down, whine, and run to greet them:Here we are, wrestling:And for folks who don't believe that I enjoy the company of humans? Here I am, saying "hello" to Echo's dad:Bye Echo! Have a wonderful time in Maine. We will miss you and your family-- but I can't wait to see you in December!

Day Trippin'

Well, we're back. I can honestly say that Formosan dogs were not meant to travel by boat. Especially at 4 in the morning. Maybe it was the leftover barbecue I consumed, before the trip? Whatever it was, I am very happy to be back on (somewhat) solid ground. Crazy lady applied for a five week artist-in-residence program. Free room and board on a remote island, with the closest civilization 70 minutes away. By boat. What the hell is she thinking? Writers. Sigh...Here are some pictures from a short hike we took with the Princess and her Mom, before our weekend adventure:I had a pedicure before the day hike. See? I'm a little nervous, but crazy lady is scratching my muzzle to distract me from the man clipping my nails.Pretty dog...Pretty Princess...

Trapped

Crazy lady knows that she hasn't posted in a while-- and she plans to write all about it, when we return to Boston-- but we're currently trapped on a remote island in Maine. We're okay. We came here to enjoy a horror writer's barbecue, and the weather won't let us leave until tomorrow morning. She's using a friend's computer to post these pictures:Check out the sign hanging on her (technically insane) friend's bathroom shower:It says: "Ladies, please do not share this cubicle. One at a time or you will be regarded as being up to no good and removed permanently." Her friend said that she stole the sign from a feminist bookstore in Madison. ARE ALL ARTISTS CRAZY?

More about our adventures, later this week. I promise.
