Why Madeline has to go out at 3:30 in the morning five nights out of six is beyond me. I keep telling myself I'd rather let her out than clean up poo but I may start to rethink that at some point.

I call it tap dancing when our puppy does it while we eat. Back and forth, back and forth, ARGH! It's maddening. I sat naked or freezing, waiting for my dog to come back in way too many nights. It's like having another baby who needs you in the middle of the night. Yup. Only moms can really properly care for dogs. That is why we got a doggie door! It is the kind that butts up against the sliding glass door. I had to wait for an income tax refund a couple years ago to pay for it (over $100 at PetSmart), but it has changed my life. Now, I just wait for her to arrive at my bed at sun-up, and paw me to let me know it's time for food and water. I really hate that on Saturdays! Dog nails on hardwood . . .

Except they destroy furniture instead of making messes. At least you can clean it up...:) This is the first time I've really had a chance to poke around on your blog (I'm coming over from Julie's). I hope you and your family were comforted by your memories of Bug on his birthday. I'm really crappy at expressing sentiment like this, but you and yours will be in my thoughts today.
