Crashed By Dogs
This morning I went about my business as usual. Woke up just before 6am, got the paper, let out dog, fed dog, fed cats, unloaded dishwasher, fed husband, made lunches and took the dog out at 6:30am and met all the usual suspects in the park. Since about February Ghillie's been eating bits of old poo she finds, and so I watch her very carefully whenever she's off-leash to make sure she isn't sneaking off to eat poop. Yesterday she ate a small piece. Today she returned to the same spot and hunted for poop (what a memory!). I took her aside to speak to her about being a good girl and not eating poo. Seconds later I was flat on my ass rolling around in pain, covered in dirt, tea and teacup went flying.
What happened was some yellow labs (friends of ours) enthusiastically crashed into my knees from behind and sent me tits over ass to the ground. I was thrashing about in pain because I twisted my left ankle (not badly but it's sore). Some of the smaller dogs then came over and licked me - frenched me, in fact. Then two human friends helped me to my feet. I could'nt stop laughing for about half an hour. It was scary though. This same thing happened last spring to our neighbour - knocked flat by two running labs. She ended up having two surgeries and pins in her shin.

All They Do, All Day Long, Is Write In To Gawker Stalker About The Olsen Twins
Can this be true (sighting is 2/3's of the way down)? If so, too funny.
"i saw ashley olsen scratching her ass while in the whole foods soup aisle yesterday. she was a bitch and gave me the finger when she caught me looking at her. whatevs, dude. in my mind, she will forever be that lovable scamp michelle tanner, waddling around in diapers and saying “Right on, dude!” to uncle jesse."

Sorry Ladies, Poor Folks, Gays, And Everybody With A Brain - Welcome Pope "Ratzi" Benedict XVI
Hope this guy dies soon. Don't mean that in a mean way. He's capping off a nice career and all, but how long can this gig last? Not long enough to bring about sustainable change.

Strange Dreams
I dreamt that a neighbourhood dog, Alastair, had a haircut like a lion. His body was all shaved and his head was left all curly like a mane. Alastair is normally poodle-ish looking (although he is a mutt), about 25lbs, with his hair all grown out. He is actually kind of a strange looking dog
I dreamt that this guy at my work, Al, hanged himself. We found out about it at work and a lady I work with, Amala, started to scream in my ear.

Baby Names
The Baby Name Wizard's NameVoyager is a crazy site guaranteed to waste at least 1 or 2 minutes of your day.
Girls' names I love: Frances, Fanny, Clementine / Clementina / Clement (I know that one is typically male but I don't care), Diandra, August (again, male, again, not caring), Charlize, Jean, Evany, Evangeline, Bridget, Charlotte, Etienne (boy's name, don't care), Stella.
Boys' names I love: Tiberius (uber-gay-sounding but I like it), Clement, Charles, Guillermo, Antony, Roman.
