Badness is the Spice of Life!

      On Sunday I went grocery shopping, and bought a bunch of ingredients to take to a friend's house for dinner Monday night. I prepped as much as I could ahead of time, leaving a bag of spices, cooking spray, & other non-perishables pushed to the back of the kitchen counter. Safe, I thought...
   Taylor is notoriously hungry (as his dog tag, "Chow Hound" professes). So I should have known better. "But he's been so GOOD lately," I thought. I left for work Monday morning.
   At 3:00 pm I was sitting in a meeting, and my phone buzzed. I was getting a call from my own home phone, which I knew meant that my pet sitter had stopped by. She only calls when it's important. She informed me that she came into my house to find the bag of food dragged into the living room, with the spices' lids chewed off... garlic, salt & pepper, onion powder blends. Ugh.

Nothing like getting a call at work about how bad your dogs are being at home!

   Taylor may be a shorty, but I figured out how he gets on my countertops, because my oven door handle is scratched: he jumps up & does a chin-up to get up there.
   My friend Susan heard about this, and sent me a photo of a collie wearing a sign stating, "I eat trash". I thought it was so funny that I had to do my own version... here's MSIR Aki & Taylor, telling it like it is!

Good/Bad Way to Start the Day

   Bad: It took me nearly an hour to get to work due to an accident on the highway. Ugh.
   Good: The radio was on a roll, with back-to-back favorites that helped the time go by quickly: Biggie's Mo Money Mo Problems, Ne-yo's One in a Million, Anthony David + Algebra 4evermore, Cobra Starship's You Make Me Feel, Drake's I'm on One,
Bruno Mars + B.O.B. Nothing on You... I remember most of them, 'cause I was singing along. ;)
  Also Good: My new Admin, Angela, treated me to an all-you-can-eat pancake & sausage breakfast in the Crown Room for Boss's Day!
