During our most recent week off, I did a couple of ride-alongs with RAD Security Chief, Officer Pat which included a stop at the California State Fair so Pat could, in his words, “eat light.”
During an all-night ride-along you generally have to go to the bathroom when you can and where you can. Here we have an intimate view of a Sacramento Park toilet. Yum
Meanwhile, While I was out all night, my wife Christina spent the evening being held captive by our lab, Scout
As for our other dogs, Maestro and Nellie are still best buds
And then there’s our newest addition, Callie, the 2 year-old Sheprador who has come a long way but still has issues putting EVERYTHING she finds in her mouth…like this fabric softener ball
I decided to make chips, salsa, and guacamole and stupidly thought I could leave the kitchen for a minute, only to return to Callie nose deep in my bowl of chopped cilantro
Fortunately…I say fortunately, I always keep spare cilantro for just such an occasion.
And then there was the day she was kenneled after we caught her eating raw flour…yes FLOUR! That’s what’s on her damn nose
One of the biggest challenges with Callie is that she’s so damn cute and such a ham
Not to be outdone, Scout was nice enough to grab Christina’s yarn when we weren’t home and disassemble a blanket she was knitting.
In a moment that truly tested our marriage, I endured watching my wife eat this disgusting combo as a snack…yes, that’s American cheese, a pretzel rod, and hot Cheetos
I did take some time to pre-order my new Corvette, which will hopefully be delivered before the end of the year
At one point, something fell between the cracks of our sofa (probably a slice of government cheese) and I found my wife on the floor
Eventually, she got whatever it was (and apparently bonked her head on the way up as well)
Come to think of it, it was a rough week for Christina…she even had a Perrier explode on her while driving!
Just to round things out, a really attractive picture of me when we went out for Pho
