Yuna enjoys the finer things in life: Fancy kibble, nice toys, upscale living quarters and a live-in Mexican slave. :)
However, she decided that the rag rug underneath her kennel would be the ULTIMATE relief from a boring day in the kennel! She somehow telepathically pulled HALF of the rug into her kennel and shredded the HELL out of it.
Now, this isn't a big surprise ad I'm kind of used to. However, I'm not so used to vomiting at 4:30am because she's get a big ol' hunk of rug she's got to cough up.
Also, last night after Mikey and I got home, I let the pups out for their evening romp in the backyard. Yuna proceeded to finish BOTH of her 'businesses' and then SHOT across the yard! She ran back and forth and would stop to look at her ass. Ms. Thing had a 12-inch strip of fabric from the rag rug hanging from her behind and couldn't get it out. I laughed for a bit because she acted as if something was chasing her, but I eventually had to get a plastic bag and move in for the assist.
It's nights like these I question my logic for becoming a father...

Another one bites the dust!
Well, actually, it's the first one. Mikey and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary this month!
It's very hard to believe it has already been a year, but we've made it!
Here's the kicker: We STILL like each other!!! :)
I'm not letting him go anywhere and I'm sure he feels the same way. I love spending time walking around the lakes, going to a movie, playing with the pups and pretty much doing anything with him.
He's intelligent, thoughtful, caring, handsome and funny. What more could I want?
I love you Mike.

Hello Friends!
Sorry I've been neglecting of my duties here at Smitty's Place.
I'm doing well! I've been trying to lay low at work and not try to spend too much time on the internet. But it is my lunch break so HERE's THE GOOD NEWS:
Mikey has an interview next week at a law firm downtown so PLEASE send good thoughts his way!!
I've very excited for him because his current job kind of SHIT on him and he'll be out of a job in early September.
The girls are doing well and are getting a bath tonight! Wish me luck because Akima don't like taking them!
I'll write more often now and try to get back into the swing of things!

Touching Base
Hey Everyone!
Sorry I've been away so long, but I've been working and they're locking down our internet and everything here at work.
Anyway... The Bad Puppies didn't go so well on the end of the season playoffs. We have our typical 3-4 innings of rough defense then come back and smack the SHIT out of the ball. It just wasn't enough in our last game. We ended up 2 runs short, but I was relieved that we were done.
I'm happy to take the reigns and set-up practices, go to the league meetings, make sure people know when to be where, put the line-ups together, collect tournament information, arrange room assignments for Milwaukee, make sure the team has bats and balls to practice/play with, makes sure the score is kept (thanks Will!!), do attendance, sit out so others can play, make sure we have enough jerseys for everyone, provide a cooler with water for the team, recruit players to compliment our existing ones, communicate with the treasurer with deadlines and stuff... But to some people, I just don't do enough.
Apparently handing off the 'fundraiser' piece to a group of competant people wasn't enough either. According to some, I needed to be there from the beginning, make sure things ran smoothly, solve any problems that arise and stick aroud to clean up afterward. All this and other players get to schlep beer and get the same amount of credit.
Ron has stepped up and really helped out with getting rooms set-aside in Milwaukee and making sure we have water and stuff at the fields. Thank you Ron!
I put this team together because no one else would do it. There were 4 players and a few fans who wanted to stick together, but I was the only one who would step-up and get it going. Trixie DID get us a GREAT sponsor tho! If I hadn't got the team going again this year, I'm not sure who would have.
Next year will be different. Next year we will not run the team 'by committee'. I won't solicit opinions from anyone; I'll just make the decision I see best for the team. I will play my best players and rotate in the rest. I WILL ACTUALLY PLAY (and not just bat)!!
