And Your Little Dog Too!


These stories shouldn't be as funny as they are, but they make me laugh a lot. It's probably my cold and heartless nature.

In another country, far from here, there are a lot of little dogs. Personally, I think little dogs fall into two categories--really cute, or hideous. Chihuahuas, I think, are horrid yappy little dogs. When I heard this story, I pictured a chihuahua, you may picture any small dog of your choosing. One family apparently had a particularly yappy annoying little dog. Well, one day, while out on a walk with this dog, a large bird of prey swooped down and carried the dog off to regions unknown...

...little dog 1 gone.

The same family gets another little dog...in my mind, this dog becomes chihuahua number 2. One day, the family is opening the freezer, and little dog is underfoot. A killer frozen chicken of death falls out of the freezer, lands on the little dog, and kills it.

No more little dog 2.

Moral of the stories--if you've got a small dog, keep it inside and away from the fridge, or just buy yourself a bigger dog.

Awww...Tender.....Sick!

So, yesterday I went with Best Friend and our siblings (minus 3) to watch Chronicles of Narnia at the Scera outdoor theater. The movie was good, as usual, but the side show was something else.

Backstory: this summer, I started using two words on a pretty regular basis: "Sick!" and "Tender." These words are exceptionally useful. It's also really funny when one person says, "tender" to have another person reply with "sick!" immediately afterwards. This experience sort of made you feel both...but mostly just "sick!"

So, there's this really old couple--like, 70 or 75, and they're making out under a blanket next to us after the movie is over. Sick! Usually, I love seeing old people who are affectionate. It shows that they haven't lost the excitement in their relationship. This, however, was just sick.

Later, as we were getting into the van to drive home, we saw this couple again...this time, mounting their motorcycle to ride off into the darkness.

Some old people just don't know that they're old, I guess.
