Wordless Wednesday: Spring snow

The Vernal Equinox, the first day of spring, fell on March 20 this year.

The infernal snowpocalypse, about four inches of [bleep]ing snow, fell on March 24.

And because we are forced to enjoy Ohio weather patterns (the midwestern states version of the Bermuda Triangle) the snow today has mutated into shoe sucking mud.

Which around these parts is just as much the first signs of spring as is the robins returning to our backyards.

Wordless Wednesday: We meet The Bloggess

Euka II meets Jenny Lawson, The Bloggess and author of Let’s Pretend This Never Happened.

So it’s either tradition or a bad habit on Wordless Wednesdays to just slap a photo here before leaving for work (already late!).  We’ll cover this experience more on Story Sunday. Because by then I can embellish the memories.

In the meantime, enjoy her website and we’ll talk later about how well a six month old puppy might handle herself at a book signing.

Hint: the pup is only six months old.

Wordless Wednesday: Canine Funkitude

Is somebody frying bologna? asks Bodine the Cat.

Oh Bodine! Nobody move!, I say. I’m getting the camera.  Which is only three steps away on the kitchen counter.  I click off the lens cap, turn to focus and snap this.

And absolutely not the scene I had before me a mere five seconds ago. The dogs are fresh from their bath, damp and clean.  Bodine came up from the basement for his evening rounds and had curled up next to the two of them on the dog bed. He was grooming them. Alternating dogs to lick their fur dry. And purring. Seriously.

Somehow bizarre, adorable and strangely disturbing all at the same time.

The shot I got instead is Bodine acting like a cat.  It smells like papaya and wet labrador in here, he says, ears back to show his disgust in the canine funkitude. He wants you to know that I’m totally lying to you and he would never (Never! he says) groom a wet dog.

Meanwhile Jager, the Master of the Hunt and Avoider of  All Things Bath-related, is keeping a secured safe distance lest his stanky self be tossed into the tub next.

Wordless Wednesday: I don’t always . . .

Stay vengeful my friends, says Bodine.

I’ve been seeing a handful of Internet memes lately with The Most Interesting Man in the World. “I don’t always [something],” says TMIMITW, “but when I do I [something snort-worthy or rather naughty].”

So we made you a Bodine meme. Enjoy.

Bodine did.

And here’s the PG-13 version.  Scroll down only if you’re not offended by strong language. By strong language, I mean that word we say when we spill coffee on our ourselves or drop our car keys in a puddle. Or when the cat knocks a pile of books off the dining room table.

Wordless Wednesday: Kibble Vulture

Kibble Vulture

Ah, a memory from the photo archives.  With that shiny black nose, Micron was still a puppy in training for CCI in this shot.

The hyper-alert ears, that watchful stare. Body language is suggestive of one being on patrol. What does this remind you of?  Looking like a bird of prey, I’m reminded of a Romulan warbird.

What? Just me? Is that too Star Trekkie for y’all?  Alrighty, how ’bout Snoopy pretending to be a vulture in a tree. That image might reach more folk than my obscure geek reference.

When the kibble hits the pan, says Micron. I’m your dog for the job. I’ll take care of everything and make it look like it never happened.
