Day 240/365 (April 15, 2009)

The day started off pretty basic for these days. I woke up and gave fred and emma some good love and attention then i let Tucker out of his crate. I created a path for him to move freely between the living room and krysta's room and that made him happy. i was also proud of him for actually going potty on the newspaper twice today! Right before i went to take my shower he fell asleep on the floor next to krysta's laundry and i felt so bad having to move him to his crate but i couldn't leave him unattended for twenty minutes while i showered.

Then i got ready and headed out to meet Josh who was going to puppy sit. On the subway strangers were all over him and his cuteness and from 72nd st until my 50th st stop he actually got this quite gorgeous looking boy, who was straight, to turn his attention to us and we chatted the whole time about puppy things and what not, of course i didnt get any personal info but it was kinda nice to be all chit chatty with a very nice looking straight boy! I got out of the subway and learned Josh was running late and i ended up waiting for 30 minutes by a duane reade until he got there. This was not bad because well anyone within a 20 foot radius was drawn in by him and he got some great attention. I ran into Caleb who i had seen in Forever Plaid in Ohio too. i kept waiting and waiting and then he came and i safely delivered Tucker to him, then i went and ran my errands. I got to the 9 to 5 box office and was pleased that crabby guy wasn't there and it turned out to be a really nice and helpful guy, too bad i am a seat snob and had some problems so i didnt end up getting any tickets, so i need to regroup with sasha and go with her to make things work out very soon! then i hoped over to NWS to pick up my rooms tickets, but they weren't processed yet so i chatted for a tiny bit with my favorite box office staff (no other place has the awesomeness that works at NWS) and then went to Sasha's.

I wasnt there for too long before we headed off to her voice lesson with kate, and the puppy play-date. While she was having her lesson i was to be puppy wrangler and make sure everyone was ok, and take pip home if things weren't working out. well oscar (her puppy) and pip loved each other and got along fabulously well! they were running like crazies and oscar can do some amazing couch leaping and it was just a good time. there were a few times they needed to be seperated because pip kept getting tired and oscar was all no no let's play, and pip was all no no ima gonna sleep on her lap for a bit. I ended up with quite they itchy splotchy neck that sasha's wonderful face wash took care of after i was rubbing soothing grapefruit peel all over it... hey it made it feel good! we also ran into this cute 4 year old little boy on the way back who clearEly watched too much TV but he loved pip and told sasha all about the special dog claw trimmer thing. ANywho after getting back sasha got ready to g out to next to normal opening, and we ran into kelly and matthew, and nick who startled us when we got back. We also ran into Travis on our way out... oh LOL sasha... i guess i should have introduced them when we first stopped!

I went and got my rooms tickets, then much needed food from over done subway... i ate then went to a pet shop for a bit to look at cute kitties and met jake at starbucks and eventually krysta came. jake had never seen rooms before and i am glad he liked it and krysta was with too... then krysta went and got tucker so jake could meet him from Josh, and i ran into Gary A (ABz) as i was leaving... hehe... oh also you know you have a problem when you walk into a theatre and one of the nice staff goes "i thought you said you werent seeing the show anymore" and i said "i did but there are other shows here" and then they are like oh rooms, that is a good one... see i see more than just ABz!

i am doing good with my hiatus! anywho i really still liked rooms this time around and jewish scottish princess is still my favorite song although i really like the one where they are the diabolicals for the first time!

then i came home and gave the kitties some love and worked on clearing out my insane facebook inbox that just kept growing and driving me batty, and writing this!

Day 239/365 (April 14, 2009)

once again i wasn't able to fall asleep the night before and i couldn't even sleep for as long as i had planned since Tucker woke me up, It was valid he needed to pee and i have to incorparate that into my daily routine now. (even if he isn't my dog, i am not going to leave him hanging and lets face it he is beyond adorable so its worth it.)

anywho i did clean up after him quite a few times but we had lots of fun playing around today and everything. Fred plays such a good big brother to him and is really nice to him even when Tucker (who likes to bite) decides that Fred's tail is a chew toy. Emma still won't give tucker the time of day but i found a really good balance between playing with him, and giving the kitties love and attention so they dont feel slighted.

finally i had to stop being a bum and go out for the day (after writing the check for my taxes to NY state, and making my lunch, and organizing my bag to go out.) so i got dressed and was going to go to the 9 to 5 box office after having their beloved discount code print off, then go to Sasha's. We already knew we couldnt go to the park since it was supposed to rain. Anywho when i got out of the subway it was misting and i had tucker with me so i thought it was best not to go to the box office and go straight to Sasha's. On the way from the time i left the apt until i got to her place so many people stopped to come over at look at this cute little bundle of fluff! Anywho Pip was so excited to have a friend over and he was running all kinds of crazy and we had to take extra care until he settled down a bit and in the end he and tucker had a great time together and we tried going on an outing to the box office, but after our quick post office side trip it started to rain lots so we scrapped that mission and went back since it wouldnt be fair for the puppies to be out in that weather. It was nice having some quality time with Sasha and matthew and krysta and nick and the puppies were so cute! i cant wait for the next puppy playdate tomorrow! while sasha, pip, tucker, and myself were out we ran into this super cute puppy that was a boxer (i think) and his owner was all cooing over tucker and then poor pip started dancing on his hind legs to get her attention and was all "what about me" well once she saw him of course she thought he was cute too! i was also impressed that while we were at Sasha's not only did tucker not go potty on her couch or bed, but when he had to he actually used the newspaper there! i was quite shocked and pleased!

Krysta took Tucker over to josh's and eventually i headed home. i really didnt do much when i got here besides some tv and dinner and kitty time. (and writing this of course, and yesterdays!)  and despite lack of sleep the past several days i still dont feel tired! eek!

Krysta also gave him a bath when she got home... so cute!

And best missed LOL of the day:

matthew was looking at Tucker's tummy, and said Tucker you have pimples on your tummy

Sasha, Krysta, and I all said they are his nipples

Matthew: well look at my pimples (lifting up shirt)
