Puppy hapiness.

The funniest story I've heard in a while (ok, total heresay through Sarah)


Nick applied for a job at Pizza Hut cause its the only place that will employ him for the 4 weeks he's in D.C. at a ballet institute. Sarah finds out about this because he called to ask about the phone number of our boss so he could be listed as the place of his last employment. Probably one of the first times a NASA manager is listed on a Pizza Hut application.


Nick (to manager): Look, I'll be honest with you, I have a Master's degree from Stanford in Aerospace Engineering.

Manager: Well, if its not a problem for you, its not a problem for me.


Where, oh, where, has Karen gone? If you know, e-mail me! Its very sad when her diary hasn't been updated all week! I mean, I can only imagine that she and Brian have jaunted off to an exotic destination. But I like to live vicariously through that.

We think we found a great home for Frankie. The family stayed over for like an hour playing with him. Their younger son's eyes just lit up (his mom says that he is constantly trying to play fetch with his stuffed animals, a very sad thing), and he was not only into Frankie, but also the scary, jumpy grown up dogs. The older son was funny. He liked Frankie. But he also liked examining every random little thing in the house, from some lose screws on the countertop to the metronome. It was very funny.

And, we got a note from Sirius's (who has obviously never read any Harry Potter books, a darned shame!) new family:

Thank you for the pictures of serious and her mom. We renamed her Boots. The children LOVE her! As for our other dog thats a different story. She is doing very well. We are working hard on potty training. She likes her crate at night and also likes to play between 1am - 3am. She is already getting spoiled! I am very happy to have her. I think she makes a great addition to our family! I tried to email Carie, but if was returned to me. Please let her know how Boots is doing.

Thank You & God Bless...

Remember Me?


Piles Of Rock
A little bit of hope for the places I'll go, a few memories of the places I've been, and some humdrum in between to fill the white space.
