Planting seeds of disaster
we went and got a tomato and pepper plant for our balcony. Oh hell yeah we are going to have a fruity balcony!
Maxx ate my damn pepper plant. Bastard. So there was still a leaf left, the stalk mostly bare and charlie brown christmas-like.
but our houseplants are dying like crazy... what the hell is wrong with them? we t hink they are pot bound so we head out to home depot for some bigger pots. god i love home depot, but then i am a big lesbian aren't i?
'bigger pots' turned into flowers, a railing box, and some bigger pots.
because, well you know.. the lesbian thing...
and of course we find out that our medium light box was actually getting too much light because we were putting them outside to be nice! We were actually burning our plants like orchids in the sahara! silly us.
now our balcony is beautiful and our shrivelled and burnt up houseplants are inside, rehabilitating. we have our pepper plant (the remnants) and a flower pot up on the table out of maxx's reach. Or so we think. Because of course while taking the dog out last night we look up to see Maxx happily gnoshing on the flowers. Sitting on the table. NOOO!!! we yell, but of course he ignores us till I storm up the steps and chase him around the house. The little bastard chewed the only leaf on my pepper plant. And of course the flower leaves.
So moral of the story, short of a shotgun/arsonic/concrete shoe swim, any ideas on getting this damn cat to stop eating my damn plants??
oh and on a side note, Maxx is happily boxing the shit out of Ralphie right now. I THINK they are playing.... I see no claws after all...

Which of course means that (e:lauren) will be out there, with Ralphie. Getting accosted by people who can't leave him alone. Without me. With gays around. Seriously, I don't like it. I mean Ralphie is a total chick magnet! And (e:lauren) is pretty damn hot her self. I'm so very dissapointed.
The neighbors are moving out. The neighbors that actually spoke to us occasionally. Last night they were moving out by throwing things off their balcony. One thing was apparently glass and it shattered. Now we are stuck with just the damn foreign guys who stand around in circles speaking loudly until we walk by when they shut up and stare at us. And i don't care if that sounded crotchety.
Battle at Buffalo rocked last night - except for the weird energy. It didn't seem very upbeat and happy. One fellow called another out (meaning they were challenged to a battle) and it was a serious one. It ended in some strong words and an invitation to step outside. Sometimes breakin ain't easy. This happened twice last night. Two separate occasions. I don't know what the hell was up.
Afterwards, we went out with Shane and Heather to iHop for some breakfast. I haven't had breakfast at 1 am in forever. Especially when not incredibly drunk! good times!
Now I'm off to work all day... Then Heather has somehow got me into a candle party... yes.. a candle party... serious?

there is life outside your appartment
yesterday we took mr ralphie on a long ass walk. saw (e:drew) along the way which confused the crap out of me... why? because random jogging person said 'hi felly, hi lauren'... this is unusual you see because now random people that we meet say 'hi ralphie'.
yes it has happened that quick. Ralphie is a celebrity. We have so many people stopping us to say hello to him that we have regulars! From across the street... "HEY ITS RALPHIE!!" oh sweet jesus no leave my dog alone...
We have people pulling over to stop and gawk at my dog... the best was when 3 large guido type fellows pulled over in their suv to yell at us...
"Aye he's really cute! I bet I'd be pretty cute if i had a dog like that!"
Now stop and read that last line again but this time, think of Rocky saying it. yeah... its like that...
so anyway, on to the world outside of Ralphie.
its my day off and i'm driving to East Aurora for an 830 am meeting. bitches.

sunshine!
started out with a nice walk with Ralphie. Walked up Elmwood to Lexington ave and back, and he did so well. THe little shit is so stubborn he refuses to move for the first block of the walk and then he finally gives in and LOVES it.
Today I'm thinkin about pickin up the fam and headin out to delaware park for a little picinic. just some sammiches, a blanket and some relaxation with Senior Ralphipants.
Tonight I believe that we will head out to Miss Kitties to meet up with (e:lauren)'s friends. We havne't been out in forever. Haven't done much other than raise a puppy and work and dance class in forever. I think its totally time for a drink. or two.
hope everyone enjoys this beautiful day~!

new keyboard.
Training a dog is suprisingly time consuming. Scratch that. Training a Dachshund, one of the most stubborn breeds that exhists, is time consuming. It is a good thing that Lauren is out of school so that she can do this properly.
He is doing very well with most things that he is learning (no biting, potty on the floor, potty in crate, barking, being a bitch to the cats, going into the bathroom -which is the delightful land of kitty litter) but his stubborn streak means he is doing it all still when it seems to benefit him more than not.
he is quarentined to a makeshift area in our kitchen. Which that in itself is shifting everything in our lives a bit. When nothing is in its 'proper place' it throws a wrench into your daily workings.
When I get home from work I have to split as much of my time between bonding with ralphie and paying attention to the cats so they don't scratch my eyes out in my sleep.
in other news...
(e:lauren), my smarty smart pants, got her grades in for class last semester and she got two A's and two A-'s. What a smarty smart pants!
(E:lauren) is going to need a job soon. A job in something that is closer to 'women/genders studies' than 'wilson farms'. anyone know of something?

update from puppy land
One thing I would not recommend is to have house guests when you bring home a puppy. Lauren's brother and friend from back home came to visit the night we brought Ralphie home. When you are trying to play the gracious host and keep the dog from whining all night, you don't get much sleep.
He does whine a lot, though he was much better today. Thank god he is starting to quiet down.
He really is so adorable, running after his little yellow ball. He bouces all over the living room floor when he is excited. It is so cute/funny to watch. Every time i try to shoot video of it, he stops though. Brat.
The cats are displeased thus far. Sid hid under the bed until today when our guests left. He still is skirting Ralphie's general area. Maxx is doing better, hanging out in Ralphie's area. He has boxed him twice though, but thankfully without the use of his claws.
OH and since Ralphie was cold, Lauren cut a sock up and turned it into a sweater for him. Ralphie now looks like a hobo.
Ok time to go play with the cats so they don't get any more pissed at us.
