First, a reminder. The Know More Do More campaign kickoff is this Saturday! Woot! I just did my first media interview about it. I am excited that we are gathering some steam, although I did goof up a little. It was a recorded radio interview and I meant to say hockey and soccer but I got ahead of myself and said HOCKER. I really hope they edit that out. C’mon kids! Let’s play some HOCKER. Oy. :)
Second, can I make some puppy-related observations?
1. The cuteness is killing me.
2. She slept through the night last night, yay!
3. She napped in her crate today!
4. She had her first checkup at the vet’s the other day (we went to Westboro Animal Hospital – they were excellent), and she was deemed to be a happy and healthy little pup. I would, however, like to advise anyone who is thinking about getting a puppy, to make sure the puppy you’re thinking of buying has all of her shots. Some pet stores are NOT good at keeping up and will seemingly let it slide.
5. It is still impossible to get any work done. Lor’ help me.
6. Puppies are the ultimate icebreaker, aren’t they? Yesterday I took Piper out from for a pee, and within two minutes a big burly fellow who was part of a tree-trimming brigade on my street came over to “talk dog,” chat about his chocolate lab and scratch Piper behind the ears. We live in a time in which people largely ignore each other in lineups/elevators/buses … so watching the effect puppies have on perfect strangers really is kind of amazing. Why can’t people be this friendly all of the time?
Gotta run. I need to get some actual work done while Piper is still snoozing happily on my lap.
