wow, i haven't blogged since november. guess there isn't much going on outside of work.
bishop's doing okay, learning stuff, responding to training, just not so much when we're at petsmart (where they inevitably say, "is he in puppy class? no? he needs to be."). i've decided to install a screen door between the kitchen and laundry room after the holidays, and puck is going to go live in the laundry room. last night i was trying to train bishop, and he was supposed to be sitting and staying, and puck bolted out of hiding and smacked him really hard in the back, with no provocation whatsoever. so bishop ended up on my lap trying to climb up my head, for which i can't exactly blame him. puck also peed on my pillow friday night, so while i can't bring myself to cast him outside, he does need his own space where he can't attack the dog or wreck my stuff.
fade refused to eat his rat last night, so i let the thing go in the backyard. i haven't seen cleoratra in weeks, but there seems to be digging activity going on near her rubbermaid, so i think she's still around. i guess if she and rattila get together to procreate, i can just set sadie and/or bishop loose for a little while, and they should be able to take care of the problem.
leaving for colorado wednesday. keep your fingers crossed that this year's trip is nothing like last year's debacle. if nothing else, at least i know now to pack my meds in my CARRY-ON.
