VD preparations (no, this is not an ointment)

You know I just went to dip my hand into a jar of conversational candy hearts and came out *two* times in a row with unreadable ones. The theory was that the first one said "rear". The second one had only a syllable written on it so there was not even enough letters in a configuration to make a word, and therefore no theory as to what *that* was trying to tell me. After a little grumbling, I realized that I *had* picked the right hearts though. They didn't communicate anything to me.
Non-communication is my world. I'm guilty of that daily.

But, while we're on VD, as many affectionately call Valentine's Day, Noel and I will be ramping up to create a whirlwind of lovely, sparkly cards tonight. Or, Noel will be glued to the TV for a showing of Finding Nemo (the movie currently in favor), while I sourly sit by myself pasting glitter on cards, trying to convince Noel that she's missing a good time and should in fact be helping her Mom.

that is so funny because my alpha female and 8 year old human pup have the same thing going. They start a project together, the 8 year old bails and the mom is left finishing the thing while the pup goes to play with other human pups.

I keep her company though. But it's only cause she might let me outside if I do, not because I think what she is doing is interesting to a dog you know. But I like that she is such a good mother.

Just like mine.

oh, I forgot to say, happy Chinese dog thing that you pointed out! I didn't know about that. Wish I would have know earlier, I would've ordered a mincement pie or rawhide cake or something.
