Probably not a good idea.


You wouldn't think to look at her but Buffy can make some noise! I never realized how easy a puppy Tibor was until we got Buffy. Tibor was so easy to crate train, he barely made a peep, not so much for Buffy. She puts up a racket that you wouldn't believe. It sounds like someone's in the crate with her pulling her claws out with tweezers. It actually sounds like she's screaming. We tried putting her in her crate Sunday night but after that wailing went on for about five minutes and we just couldn't take it anymore. We couldn't even hear the TV at full volume, that's how loud she was. Putting her in a box by our bed worked out a little better than the crate but she still would start whining every hour or two and last night she actually knocked over the box and escaped and Bryan and I were just so tired that we gave in and just let her sleep in the bed with us. She slept most of the night the little brat. She woke up once at 4:30am and started biting me and I had to take her out but that was the only time. She sure knows how to play us doesn't she? Poor Tibor never gets to lay in bed with us because he's so good, it just doesn't seem fair. She's definitely more of a handful than Tibor was but we still love her and Tibor's been surprisingly good with her. This morning she was climbing all over him, biting his tail, paws and face and he just let her do it. It was so cute! I can tell he's trying really hard to hold back too, it's like he really wants to play but he knows he has to be gentile with her. Sometimes he forgets and tries to pounce at her and scares the crap out of her and she does one of her screams, which is pretty hilarious but he's not hostile, just playful. I'm sure it won't be long before they can play like he wants to. We just need to figure out how to crate train her! Our dog walker Robyn says she can hear Buffy crying when she pulls up outside, so I shudder to think that these crying fits go on all day, poor Tibor's the one that has to put up with it the most. He's such a good boy!

Tibor used to be that little.

The picture on the left is Tibor the first day we got him and the picture on the right is Buffy the second day after we got her. I tried to do the same pose so you could see their difference in size but I was a little off. You can still judge their sizes by looking at the metal back on the cart. Tibor's sitting down and his head is above it and Buffy is standing and her head doesn't reach the top. Below is a picture of Tibor and Buffy together as of now. I'm going to take a picture every week with them together like this to see how much she grows. We tried to get her to sit but she wasn't having it.

Meet Buffy Hadzik.


Yep, we did it. We got puppy number two! We got her from the Humane Society yesterday and she is a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix and we're all already totally in love with her. The Human Society wasn't certain about her mix but there's no doubt she's got Rottweiler in her, the German Shepherd part was the guess due to her coloring. They also guessed her age to be about two months old, which is crazy because she's half the size Tibor was at two months old so I think Tibor may have been older than they thought he was.

Tibor's not quite sure what to think about her yet but I think as soon as she's big enough to play then he will love her as much as Bryan and I do. I hope they will be the best of friends!

James Bond...meh.

We went and saw the new James Bond movie last night and I have to say I'm still not a fan. It was fine going to the theater and it was mildly entertaining but I'd never watch it again. The opening scene with the silhouetted naked women was just so stupid and when he has sex with the red head chick it was so ridiculous. That would so not happen. I've just never been a fan of James Bond. He uses women only for sex and it bugs me. I realize he's a fictional character but I still don't like him and probably never will. I'm done with my James Bond rant now.

Really? Again?

Due to my year plus of not having a car radio, thanks to those who were so deperate for cash or drugs or whatever that they just had to steal it, I had forgotten how repetative the radio really is. They really do play the same five songs over and over again. It's crazy! I guess which five songs that get put on repeat depends on the radio station you happen to be listening to, which is 97.1 ZHT for me because I happen to like their morning show. In any case I thought I'd list off the five songs that I notice get played the most and then maybe next month I can compare the list and see what's changed. Remember in 1995 when Gangsta's Paradise came out? Man I used to love that song, I listened to it a million times. Why'd a bring that up? Because it was one of the five repeat radio songs back in the day. Anyways, here's my list in no particular order:

1)T-Shirt by Shontelle - eh, it's ok, it doesn't make me want to stab a pen into my ears.
2)Let It Rock by Kevin Rudolf featuring Lil Wayne - I happen to love this song so I'm ok with its repeat status.
3)Hot N Cold by Katy Perry - I didn't like it much at first but it's growing on me which means it won't take much longer until I hate it. Also the Simlish version is awesome.
4)Whatever You Like by T.I. - ugh, I hate this song, it really gets on my nerves for some reason.
5)If I Were A Boy by Beyonce - I kind of love it, I know...I know...gag.

Does this count as my exercise for the day?

Here's the scene...it's raining outside, I've got my umbrella so all is well. I've got my lunch bag and my work bag and I walk into my building raring to go with another fun-filled day of work, or rather just another day of work. I get to my office and start unpacking my stuff when I look into my work bag and see my parking pass. Wait. What is my parking pass doing in my bag? Shouldn't it be in my car? Ah crap!

I drove Bryan's car to work yesterday because he was going to get me a new tire for my car and when I got home I took my parking pass out of his car and put it in my bag so I wouldn't forget it today but then forgot to put it in my car. So after my five minute walk to my office from my car I realize I didn't put my pass in my car so I had to grab my umbrella and haul it back to my car to put my pass back in there. At least I didn't get a ticket. These U of U parking people can be brutal. I can count that as my exercise for day now, right? It was a work out because I was trying to be quick so I wouldn't get a ticket, that and I'm really out of shape.

Now on a dish washing note. Our freaking dishwasher isn't working and I refuse to wash any dishes by hand! Our kitchen is getting way nasty because of this refusal for manual dish washing but I just can't go back. I can't! Ugh, today is going to be "one of those days" isn't it?

Also, Bryan is out of town again until Friday, bummer... :( Poor me. I guess I'll have to fill the time watching scary movies and hanging out with The Tib. I just don't sleep very well when Bryan isn't home. I always end up staying up way later than usual when he's not around so I'm pretty tired today. More so than usual anyways because I'm pretty much always really tired.

One more thing. I committed the ultimate sin. I got a caffeine free diet coke. Really... I was just so desperate for some soda action and the Bookstore only sells caffeine fueled diet beverages and I've been caffeine free for two months now and I didn't want to ruin it. Ok I could have gotten a diet Sprite or a Fresca but I have to be in a special kind of mood to drink those things. I always made fun of people for drinking caffeine free diet coke and here I go and do it. I'm so ashamed. Let the mocking commence. I deserve it.
