David Gray.

Ok, so last night, we all took a trip down to Seattle to see David Gray because he's pretty much my mom's most favoritest musician ever and she's been listening to his music since way before I was born and always goes to his concerts when he comes to town. And this time, Auntie Kathryn bought us all tickets for a going away present - well , all but me! I got to go to Seattle, but I ended up sitting in my kennel in the hotel!
Anyway, my mom said the show was pawesome as usual, and when they got back to the hotel, a huge tour bus parked across the street and my mom thought she saw David Gray get out of the bus and go into that hotel. But then she was all - oh probably not and went to bed instead of going down to that hotel bar just in case. And then, this morning as we were leaving our room, my mom happened to peek out the window and there was David Gray getting into a van so she sprinted down there, but he was driving away which makes her the most sadderest because she wants to meet him like a teenie bopper wants to meet Miley Cyrus. Normally, my mom is pretty calm and collected, but this is her weak spot. She is really super mad that she didn't follow her instincts, because this is the photo that should have happened.


But this is a real photo that my mom took at the show.

Ok, and now the important stuff: my grandma and my mom went shopping downtown - snore, but me and my dad went to a sound garden at a park and then we went to the Olympic Sculpture Park which was way cooler than shopping. Too bad my dad broke his camera and there are no photos because my grandma's battery died and my mom didn't bring her camera. Sheesh.

The embarrassingly late super mega post!

Whoa - so you know how I moved across the country like over two weeks ago and I said I would post a photo journal and talk about how awesome it was and all that other stuff? Well, my mom said she 'finally has the time' to help me with it. So much has happened since I moved that I don't even feel like you guys even know me anymore - I mean, I am totally a different dog and stuff.
Ok, so here we go: leaving was pretty much the sadderest thing ever because we left my Grandpa, and my Auntie Kathryn and Uncle Ansel. We said goodbye like a hundred times and hugged a lot and then cried and then talked about it then hugged and then cried and then did that all over again. It was really sad. Like really sad. But the super cool thing was that it had snowed overnight, so my mom was all 'I think we're doing the right thing here because snow in the second week on October is totally wrong.'

So this is a pic of me as copilot of the huge moving van, but I'm pretty sure I'm autopilot. My mom and my grandma - she's living here with us now - drove in the car with the cats in my metal house in the back seat. And the funniest thing happened. Duncan decided to sleep in the litter box the whole time and Saffron was all 'Duncan, I gotta poo', and Duncan didn't move so Saffron pooped all over his tail and it was diarrhea! And the next day, Duncan didn't learn, and it happened again!!!!

This are pics of me in the really big truck.


And this is a pic of me in the Badlands in South Dakota which was really pawesome because it was like mountains but they are made of dirt. It's pretty much the coolest place in SD but it was super cold so we only went out for a few minutes so I wouldn't freeze to death. And then my mom and grandma went to Wall Drug and my dad stayed in the truck because he didn't want to be one of tourist people. Whatever. They make pawesome doughnuts there and I got to eat some of one.

This is as a deer I found there.

And then it got really, really cold when we were driving.

And it kept snowing and got icy and this happened to the lug nuts on the tires.

And then we stayed in a motel which was awesome because I really like staying in motels. And the cats were happy because they got to be out of the cage and my grandma's cat, Lorraine, was happy too because her little cage is little. I've tried to be friends with Lorraine because she's a manx like me, but she pretty much hates me.
And this is a picture of me guarding the truck because my food was in it.


And this is the morning when we slept in Montana!


It sure it a pretty place!


We also drove through Wyoming and Idaho but my dad didn't take any pics.
And this is a pic of my mom's car - see Saffron in the back window!


When we got to Washington, we had to stay at my Uncle Greg and Auntie Hyunjoo's house and they have two little girls named Ella and Jina. They are super sweet but they move really fast and scare the crap out of me so I'm not allowed to be around them.
After four days in Bellingham, we found a house and you can see the bay from our bedroom window and it's a super cute bungalow and my grandma loves it and all the cats love it too.

Odin got really, really sick and dehydrated so we took him to the Cat Clinic and they gave him injectable medicines and subcutaneous fluids for my mom to give him at home, and then Lorraine got really, really sick and had to go to the emergency room because we didn't have enough medicine of Odin's left, and then we went to the Cat Clinic the next day and got the same medicines that Odin got and now they are both ok. The doctors think they picked up a corona virus at the gross motels, and Odi got sick because he's 15 and Lorraine got sick because she was bottle raised by my mom and she didn't get mother's immunity and pretty much has only been in one place her whole life. And then my mom got a job at the Cat Clinic! No dogs! I don't know what she was thinking!

I'll post a pic of our house later because my mom can't find the one she took.

And another thing, a few days ago I went down to the bay with my mom and grandma and I saw a dog and pulled away from my mom and sort of attacked her but I didn't hurt her and she didn't hurt me but my mom has been talking to a trainer who is going to come over. Hrmph.

And we went up to Mount Baker today, and my dad took this totally pawesome pic.

Not Homeless!

Hey everydog! We found a house and started moving in on Thursday and if you really crane your neck, you can see the bay from the front step! Woot! It's a really cute little bungalow - it's a little small, but it's super nice and my mom loves it and I like it because it's bigger than the condo which was really tiny. I'll post some pics later because my mom said she's too busy to find the camera right now. Whatever. When she finally gets off her lazy ass, I'll post pics of the trip!

Homeless.

We're here! but we don't have a place to live yet and we are staying with my auntie and uncle and the cats have to live in the bathroom. HA! What is with all the no pets for rental properties?
More later.

LOLBostons.

OMD two posts in one day! So, lolbostons.com used to be one of my favoritest sites but the administrator stopped updating it a while ago and I just checked it to see if maybe she started again and she didn't but I came across one of my favoritest pics. If you are interested in seeing a lot more witty and handsome pics of me, check out my name on the sidebar on the right - you will see lots of my Boston friends there too.

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes.

So things are changing really quickly around here - there are boxes everywhere and my mom and dad are super busy because we leave on Friday and my dad is going to work through Thursday which is totes crazy. The cats are acting out and being on the counter tops all the time and my mom is really nervous and emotional and there are tons of other things going on. My mom is super sad to leave Auntie Kathryn and Uncle Ansel and all her friends and she is really going to miss my Grandpa a lot too and is super worried about him. As you've probably gathered, my mom doesn't do change all that well even though this move has been her goal for years but once she's settled into her new life I'm sure she will be very happy. I know I will be happy because there will pretty much be no snow and I will have my parents so how can I really go wrong. And my mom is really worried about finding a job but my dad has a really good one which is awesome because that means I still get to eat. I'm pretty excited to see the ocean - what can all you sea-faring dogs tell me about it?
Do you guys think I should even bring my parka?

Going Away Party!

So yesterday Auntie Kathryn and Uncle Ansel hosted a going away party for me. They invited all my parents friends and it was a super awesome time because I'm starting to battle my anxiety. Dr. Seth who is pretty much my favorite Dr. ever was there and last week he prescribed Xanax for me to make me feel better in social situations because I totally like people and totally want to be with them, but then I get really scared and run away. So now, with Xanax, I go up to them and they give me tons of love and I am really happy. It totally doesn't zonk me out or anything. Now I know people don't always agree with medicating, but it's really the best thing for my quality of life because it's no way to live to be scared in social situations when all I really want is to hang out and have to be left at home in a kennel being anxious there.
Anyhowl - I had a super fun time and got to chill with all of my best friends like Anne and Holly and Jimmy and I got to see Jen and Jeff and their kids and hang out with Mike and Michelle and all the other cool people who I'm forgetting.
And I want to tell you about my new best friend - her name is Nuala which is a really pretty name and she is Seth's wife. We pretty much cuddled all night long and she has a Boston terrier named Ruby but I'm not allowed to hang out with her because I do things to her that are inappropriate if you know what I mean - don't tell Martha.
And this is a picture of my vet, Seth and Nuala and me. I'm not trying to get away I'm just irked by all the picture taking.


And this is a pic of me and Bobby and my mom. My eyes are dilated from the meds so it was really hard to fix the red eye without looking weird so my mom left it.
