And They Call it PUPPY LOVE....

I can't believe these words are coming out of MY mouth, but I am having puppy withdrawals!!?? I spent the last week and a half watching Scott and Megan's dog Daphne while they were in Greece. I was a little surprised that I offered to watch her since I have never really liked dogs. I have never spent that much time with a dog. I figured it would be fun and like a mini vacation. The first day was a nightmare. When I got home from work I walked in ready to be attached by the furious little pup but the house was silent. I thought maybe she was out on the balcony or upstairs, but no sign of her anywhere. I thought I had already lost the dog on the first day!! I was freaking out. I had no clue how I would explain this to Megan. I thought to call the "real dog sitter" (she would come and play with Daphne during the day so she wouldn't be so wild when I would get home) to see if she knew where she was. Luckily she still had her and was on her way to drop her off. I decided to do some laundry while I was waiting and went to grab something off the top shelf and knocked a whole container of powered stain remover in the washing machine into a load of clothes I had just washed. So I just decided to wash them again and figured they would just be really clean. Then I went to get Daphne's food ready and turned on the garbage disposal that apparently had a spoon and some measuring spoons down it that got destroyed! So, my first day I lost a dog and had to replace some stain remover, measuring spoons and tried to figure out where they got there spoons from so I could replace it!! I also learned that you can't leave any paper sitting out where a dog can get it. I left a note for the dog sitter and when I came home I found it shredded to pieces on the floor!!!!

All washer full of stain remover, a chewed up letter and some broken spoons!



It was pretty much smooth sailing after my first day. Daphne and I became great pals. We would go to the park everyday and play ball and take a walk. I got used to having someone around all the time when I got home from work. She would come running to me every day I got home and just hang out with me. We even had sleepovers each night!!! Our last night was the best night. I had taped the Justin Timberlake concert on HBO for Megan (it was the same one we went to and loved it!) as a surprise, so we had our own "Party" with Justin our last night. Daphne is a groupie already!!!

Getting ready for the USC game and Daphen napping


It was really weird going back home and being all alone again.....I keep looking for Daphne!! So I have decided that I need a dog. Joe and I were at Fashion Island this weekend because I wanted to go to the pet store. I found the cutest little dogie. She was soooo cute!!! She was a coton-poo. Not quite sure what that is but cute!!!! She was only 2 months old. I got to hold her and she just sat there staring at me. I seriously wanted to buy her but I can't have any pets where I live. SO, I need to move so I can go and get her!!! I can't believe that I may end of with a dog!!?? Joe went and bought an iphone and I thought I was going to get one too, but think I will save my $ for my new dog!!!!

Besides watching Daphne, Joe and I went to the first USC home game against Idaho a couple of weekends ago. My friend Monique had two extra tickets so we were able to go. I am SOOO excited that the football season has begun!!! We usually get to a few USC games a season, so hopefully there will be more to come!! "FIGHT ON!!"
