Update 1

Okay, okay...Kevin and I are getting a puppy. It's taken us a long time, but Kevin will finally get his first dog. We're really excited--and I'm super nervous. We're going to have to change our lifestyle a lot, but it will all be worth it. We picked out an English yellow labrador retriever from a breeder who trains and competes his dogs in dog shows. Our puppy is a descendant of some champs. We thought about rescuing a dog, but we were worried about getting a sick dog (physically and psychologically) for our first dog. We need a dog that we know will be healthy and that will be an easier first dog for us to train and handle. This is a picture of our pup. He's seven weeks old and won't be ready to come home with us for another week and a half. He's really sleepy in this picture because Kevin wore him out playing with him. We're busy trying to get the house and yard ready for him and are figuring out the house training schedule, since puppies have to be taken out every two hours, day or night. I'm sure you will be hearing more about him.

As for other happenings...

Not much else is going on. We've got puppies on the brain. I'm trying to get plenty of sleep before that gets taken away, and we've had a lot of shopping to do. If you've got time, check out this video clip taken from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart where Jon interviews John Bolton!



I would like to see if Bolton sticks to his view that the president should always be fully supported by every aspect of the government if (I mean, when) Democrats take control of the presidency. Enjoy Bolton's convoluted reasonings and his display of blind loyalty that characterizes this administration so well. If you only watch part of it, watch the last 40 seconds of it where Bolton talks about job performance. Classic. How can there still be 36% out there?
