Discombobulated Thoughts - 05/23/06

• Happy Conspiracy Day!
• Pugly did so good at puppy playgroup on Sunday. He’s still pupp-shy but he was well-behaved and he made a little effort to make friends with the less agressive dogs.
• The vet told me today that Pugly has a heart murmur. On a scale of 1-6, it’s a 1, but by his age it should have gone away. If it doesn’t go away in a month or gets worse, we may have to look into doing an Echocardiogram and discuss the options of what his future health issues might be. This is very upsetting. He seems fine when he’s terrorizing my apartment like a Tasmanian Devil.
• I have started reading How Would a Patriot Act? Defending American Values from a President Run Amok but haven’t gotten very far in yet due to puppy constraints but I like the fact that Greenwald is a Constitutional lawyer and neither a liberal nor a conservative. A lot of what he said in the preface is how I felt before 1999 as well. I think this will be an excellent read for anyone.
• The mailman did not come to my mailbox yesterday. I know this because he did not pick up my outgoing mail. That’s just one more day that Cassanova won’t get back to Netflix so I can get something hopefully better.
• Pugly has discovered his tail and spends quite a bit of time chasing it.
• I really wish I could find out if I need some sort of converter for my laptop to plug into outlets over in England. Why can’t I find practical information out there on the web?

   It’s weird that you can’t find info about the outlets on the web. That trip is coming up soon, isn’t it?

   I love it when the cats chase their tails… or each others!

   Casanova’s not good, huh? I have that book in my cart at amazon, so thanks again for the recommendation.

   Yup. I should be landing in London in a month.

   The movie was o.k. Nothing too exciting. I guess it was kind of predictable. It was actually kind of…like a Shakespearean plot with the mistaken identies, etc.

   Ooo, I’m glad you asked. I meant to post this earlier. Pugly still has a minor heart murmur, which the vet says we have to keep and eye on, but the good news is that during his recent snip-snip surgery, under the anesiesia, the murmur did disappear for a bit. This is a good sign says the vet.
