Billy the dog
Billy the dog is our puppy. He's not a puppy at all, he's over nine and a half years old, but we call him our puppy. When I say "our" I mean the [[bio-badboy badboy family]].
Billy has attitude and battitude. He is a grump and a bully and a bit anti-social. But he is also very sweet and cute. He is clearly the best-looking dalmation I have seen around, though he's not a showdog by the AKC's standards. Of course, if he met someone from the AKC he would bite them so who cares?
Billy has a serious drooling problem and is a crazy creature of habit. If you don't immediately give him a biscuit or his dinner when he comes in from outside he stands in the kitchen loudly demanding it. If you dare to eat anything ever he drools about a tablespoon of drool per second. The smartest thing we've ever done is to get a bar-height table in our new apartment so he can't get his drool on us, or steal food off the table.
Rumor has it that Billy went through obedience training but I'm still doubtful.
Questions about my new weblog platform?...
Glad you asked. It's a super awesome new platform for creating weblogs or any other dynamic site created by my genius boyfriend Rob (robreed at gmail dot com). Email him and tell him how awesome he is.
Why you should visit this site regularly
Because I'm right about everything. If you disagree, I don't care.
What's going on right now
I swear, someday we will be done fixing things and moving in. Maybe before our 2 year anniversary of moving in, which will be December 31, 2011. For pete's sake. I hope so. I made a Homeownership category on this blog but it is woefully out of date. I will try to keep it current, though. The process of fixing things and putting things where they belong continues.
We adopted two kitties from the Animal Rescue League of Boston in the fall of 2010. Molly is a sweet black and white/piebald kitty who was found on the streets as a stray. Katie is a torbie/Maine Coon who was confiscated in a hoarding case where there were 98 cats total. Both are great in their own way. Hopefully at some point they will realize that about each other. Every once in a while I catch them grooming each other nicely but usually they are tackling each other. Or, rather, Katie is tackling Molly and Molly is hissing and smacking the hell out of her. Katie is not quite a year old so she has to outgrow some kitten tendencies. Hopefully as she mellows they can become better friends.

In Memory of Emily the kitty
Greatest kitty in the world! 1992-2010.
Many of you probably have heard Emily stories. She was a sweet and funny cat who seemed to get more personality every year. Imagine how much she had by the time she was 17 and a half years old!
