Meme Today, Pictures this Weekend

March 1, 2012 | Filed under: Stories

I was tagged by Chronicles of Cardigan in this meme that has been going around. I won’t tag anyone at the end. But you are feel to pretend I’ve tagged you if you want to answer.

I’ll go through this in order of age, though you could also call it the order by which the dogs entered my life.

 

1. Describe yourself in 7(ish) words

Junebug– sweet, cute, destroyer of all bedding and pens

Larry– alert, focused, watch dog, biggest dog around

Howie– quiet, mellow, gentlemanly. Pet me now, please

Me– geek, gamer, writer, friend, focused, messy, puppy-cuddler

 

2. What keeps you up at night?

Junebug– Nothing. I’m a Beagle. I sleep. Well, except when I’ve gotten into something I shouldn’t have, and then my tummy will wake me up in the middle of the night. But I go right back to sleep.

Larry– Motorcycles.

Howie– Larry deciding that he wants to cuddle next to Mommy in the spot I’m already cuddled.

Me– June’s tummy, Larry’s barking, Howie moving around. MIL issues. (I don’t talk about it much here, but C’s mom is currently in a yo-yo state of health, where we think she’s going to die roughly once every 6 weeks, then she gets better, kind of.)  Luckily, I have a memory foam mattress and that helps the sleeping part tremendously.

 

3. What would you most like to be?

Junebug– allowed to chase bunnies and run through brambles every day

Larry– Dog park Super Hero, defender of small dogs everywhere

Howie– someone’s forever (and only) dog

Me– me, only with more time for the dogs

 

4. What are you wearing right now?

Junebug– collar and tags. I’m under blankies, does that count?

Larry– collar and tags

Howie– collar and tag

Me– sweater, slacks (business casual attire), brown plaid shoes

 

5. What scares you?

Junebug– When other doggies get mad at me for just wanting to play

Larry– Nothing! I am terrier, hear me roar

Howie– Being alone, or in a kennel full of strange dogs

Me– the thought of losing the dogs or any of my family

 

6. Best and worst of blogging?

Best– all the amazing people I’ve met, and the fact that I get to ramble on about whatever I want, and no one can interrupt me. (Me)

Worst– Mom’s at the computer again. Quick, one of us get under the desk, the slowly work our head up into her lap, pushing the keyboard tray away. Then she’ll have to pay attention to us. (Dogs)

 

7. Last website visited? Gmail

 

8. One thing you would change about yourself?

Junebug– I’m perfect, I don’t know what you’re talking about

Larry– I’d like to take down a mastiff

Howie– Not deaf, so that mom would let me off leash at the big dog park and I could go meet all the other dogs and sniff anywhere I wanted

Me– I wish I liked to clean, or felt more urge to clean. I like a clean house, but I’m just a slob by nature

 

9. Slankets (aka Snuggies, Snuzzles)?

Junebug & Larry– We don’t care what kind of blanket it is, as long as we can be cuddled under it with one of our people.

Hoiwe– I came with my own blanket. But I’m not a big fan of being under covers.

Me– I have one that was a gift from my step-mother. It’s very handy for playing video games.

    Loved your tag answers. But sorry to hear your MIL is having health problems. I'm sure it's exhausting and worrisome at the same time.

    Oh yeah, and the pictures were terrific.

      Thank you. It is what it is, and not much we can do about it. Luckily, cuddly puppies are also a great sleep aid.

    Thanks for playing; I enjoyed getting to know you all better! (And I wish there was a repository for bloggers who wish to be on the "Do-not-meme-me" list. Then maybe these things wouldn't get so rampant – and burdensome for some. 🙂

    I, too, am sorry about your MIL's health. And, yes, thank goodness for sleep-inducing mattresses.

    By the way, if you liked to clean, you'd have even less time for your dogs. Boo on cleaning. 🙂
