Yesterday, I shared the tale of Merida’s encounter with the treadmill. Today, the topic is Hugo and how he’s trying to help me cut back on caffeine.
Early spring, I would dump at least 3 nasty, bloated tree frogs out of the pool skimmer every single day. Perry, thinking it was funny that I gagged every time I did it, bought me a Beanie Baby stuffed green frog. It’s place on my desk went undisturbed for months.
Hugo has it now.
While I was assisting the Pesky neighbors with their new iPad and Apple Watch set-ups, he couldn’t resist that frog a second longer. Positioned at the back of my desk, Hugo must have exhibited some amazing acrobatic moves to reach it. During the process, he unplugged a couple items, knocked over a candle (that was NOT burning), and tipped over a cup containing what was left of my morning coffee onto the desk.
His way of restricting my caffeine intake was to make sure the yummy coffee was no longer drinkable. Instead, it covered the top of my desk, and ran off onto the floor.
Life with dogs is never boring. 😊
And now, the frog actually resembles some of the slimy amphibians I dumped out of the skimmer basket back in the spring.
Now you know: In 2013 a 28 year old woman in Chembur, India had to undergo emergency surgery to remove a ‘football sized’ fecal mass after she had not had a bowel movement for 45 days.
