I don't follow celebrity gossip. You'll notice that Perez Hilton is not listed as one of the blogs I read. I rarely watch TV (other than the Amazing Race and NHL games), I rarely make it to a movie and I rarely listen to the radio. Pop culture vacuum? Yep, that's where I live.
And even in that pop culture vacuum, I am still very aware of the fact that Mariah Carey is a wacko. And this video is funny. Nice outfit.
The guy that she's is pitching to is my co-worker's brother. You can thank that co-worker for this brief interlude into celebrity commentary.

Dodge Got Adopted!
Before the actual news of this post, I need to share with you another good Laffy Taffy joke: What do you call the chicken as he crosses the road?
OK - now for purpose of this post: The little Dodgeball did not go up for adoption over the weekend as I had hoped, as he needed to have more x-rays done to verify that his leg was healed sufficiently. He passed the medical exam and finally went up for adoption on Tuesday morning at the AHS Sunnyslope facility. Their doors open at 10:00 am, and when I checked the adoptable dogs on their website at 1:30 pm, he was gone. Yippeee!!! Adopted within 3 1/2 hours! What a superstar! I'm pretty sure that he has already taken over his new household and is keeping everyone's laps warm.
The answer to the above joke: Poultry in motion. Hee.

The New Foster Has a Name - sort of
I decided that Scarlet would be a suitable name for the new foster dog. She's even starting to respond to it. However, many times when I try to say "Scarlet" I end up calling her Sabrina, Sabra and once even Sasha (sorry, Kiri, I'm not trying to make any sort of suggestion that your lovely baby is a dog who likes to chew wood and tries to eat her own poop). I'm not sure why my brain and mouth have lost their connection.
I guess we'll wait to see what sticks.

The New Foster Needs a Name
Today was Dodge's last day with us. I returned him to the shelter this mor
ning. He was such an awesome little dog. If you are thinking about adding a dog to your family, I know of a great little, busy lap dog that would make a perfect pet! Go visit the Arizona Humane Society and if Dodge is still there, grab him and take him home! If he's not there, grab another friendly pup and take it home instead. They are all waiting patiently for someone to love.
The trip to the shelter tod
ay was not all sad - after taking Dodge, they gave me a new foster. She is an 8 month old shepherd/cattle dog mix with a fractured leg. She had FHO surgery and she'll be with us for 6-8 weeks while she recuperates. She's very loving and is immediately friendly to everyone she meets. I don't think she'd been in a house before - she was nervous to walk through doorway
s and nervous to walk on tile. Once I coerced her inside, she'd stay in the back room until she got up enough courage to join us in the dining room. The first time through the doorway, she stopped in the kitchen and stood there until I came to save her from the too-smooth tile.
She likes the other dogs, especially Georgie. She has tried to wrestle and play, but her lame leg keeps getting in the way. She immediately found a tennis ball in the yard and threw it up in the air. Once her leg is strengthened and she's able to use it properly, I'm pretty sure that fetch is going to be a favorite of hers.
This little girl really needs a name. Any suggestions?
