Christmas, Part 2

So, while Christmas started off pretty badly, it promptly got worse. First, we have a little snow in Indiana. Enough so that it looks like Christmas, but not so much that it inhibits my ability to walk around and take care of my bodily functions. It's pretty much the perfect amount of snow. Wisconsin? Not so much.

This definitely qualifies as too much snow. WAY too much snow. And I'm supposed to squat and poop in this. Needless to say, it typically does not go well. Perhaps I should learn to use the litter box. Or not.

Second, Sarah FINALLY got me a stocking. This should be something fun and exciting. However, we're talking about something Sarah purchased here. And she didn't get me something nice and pretty and appropriate. Instead, she got me a horrible stocking, that I do not like at all.

Yes, it's pink. Yes, it suggests that I am naughty. No, I do not approve. At all.

This whole thing was made even worse because, just before Christmas, I broke a window. Now, this really shouldn't be considered my fault. After all, there was a squirrel sitting just outside the window on a fence, and it was taunting me. And really, the window should have been able to hold my weight, because, seriously, 65(-ish) pounds is not that much. But, I did pound on the window as I barked at the squirrel and break it, so I guess I could see how some people (namely, Santa and Sarah) would think that I had been naughty and decide not to bring my presents. So, having a stocking that suggests I am naughty makes me a little worried.

Is this the face of a naughty dog? I think not.


It turns out, come Christmas morning, my fears of being on the naughty list were seemingly coming true...

  1. Such a double standard . . . if it had been a creepy robber in the yard, you would have been a hero for breaking that window . . . squirrels are at least as pesky as robbers.

  2. They're certainly annoying creatures. And at least robbers don't show up during the day and taunt you when you're trying to sleep!

  3. Based on the things Sarah buys you, maybe it's a blessing to have an empty stocking. Just saying...

  4. Choppy you do make me laugh. That Sarah is so awful to you. If I knew the animal rescue phone number I would pass it on to you.
