Welcome, cousin Will!

I have a cousin in Colorado named Eric. I haven't met him in person yet, but we Skype all the time, and when Mom went out to meet him, I got to stay with my aunt Kerri, so I like him.

I've also got a cousin Emma, who lives near DC.  I met her about a year ago. We were both much smaller then, but we're both still pretty cute.  

And now, I have a new cousin--Emma's little brother William James. I can't wait to meet him. Mom says we're going to visit soon, but I don't know if I believe her. She talks a good game with vacation and travel, but we haven't gone anywhere in MONTHS. Then again, travel means having to be quiet and calm in my carrier for hours on end. Hm. Maybe I'll have to rethink this...

Politics is b-o-r-i-n-g

Mom and I are watching tv, which is normally something I love. But this isn't It's Me or the Dog, or even a hockey game. It's a presidential press conference. Wanna know what I think of politics? Look back at my blog post from election day. Snoooooooze.... Can we change the channel or what? Animal Planet? Please?

The best thing about being so low to the ground

So I'm out for my last walk last night, nose to the ground, like usual. And I look down in the gutter, and--jackpot! There's this huge stick, almost twice as long as I am! Pretty cool, right? So I pick it up and take it with me, because how can you just leave such an awesome stick lying there?

Mom's all like, "Mowgli, stand still so I can take your picture!" and everyone we walked by was like, "Oh, look at that dog with the stick! How cute!"

But I didn't have time for any of that crap. I mean, when you find a stick like this, nothing else really seems that interesting. You know what I mean?

I am a sleepy puppy these days

Ever since I turned 1, I just don't have the stamina that I used to. If I play a lot with my walker and the other dogs during the day, I mostly just want to snooze on the couch in the evening. Today was especially tiring because it was snowing all day. I hate snow. Wake me when it's stopped.
