Shadow made a new friend last night..
Our White GSD met Amber’s grandparents’ Pug puppy yesterday. As you can see, despite B.J.’s obvious size handicap versus Shadow, she is absolutely fearless. Lucky for her, Shadow was incredibly tolerant of her playful “attacks”.
I still think it’s funny that Shadow has made such great friends with a creature less than 1/10th of her size. Good girl. :)

Waffle House’s sign lost a light in the perfect way. Had to snap a photo. Introducing… WAFFLES 2.0!!
I have dogs. Dogs make messes. An unfortunate fact of life with dogs. But I love them nonetheless.
I came home from work last week, and one of them had left me a surprise fecal festival on the living room carpet. How thoughtful, just what I always wanted. Anyways, I scooped up the rectal gifts, tossed them into the toilet, and then some stain-removal advice I had recently overheard popped into my head: “Hydrogen Peroxide.”
I quickly weighed my options. All I had was Febreze and Pledge wood cleaner, neither of which would be sufficient to clean skidmarks from my living room carpet. My security deposit was slowly evaporating before my eyes. But then, out of nowhere, I remembered that I had bought a bottle of peroxide several months ago to treat a wound sustained while falling off of my bed (don’t ask).
Frantically, I searched the house for my bottle of carpet-saving goodness. Crap! Where is it?! They say whatever you’re looking for is always in the last place you look. That’s pretty obvious, why would you look for something after you found it? Well, it seemed like I was never going to find it, until I looked in the last place I would think to look, even though now it seems like it should have been the first place I looked: under the bathroom sink. Bingo!
I poured enough onto the stains to cover them, grabbed my trusty plastic-bristle brush, and started scrubbing. After about 2 minutes of scrubbing, the horrible canine poo stains were completely disappeared! Once the peroxide dried, you couldn’t tell there was ever a stain at all.
So, don’t waste your money on Oxy-Clean, or any crap like that. Just go to the supermarket, grab a bottle of hydrogen peroxide (usually around $1.00 US), and use that… it works better. In fact, I’ve noticed that the powdered Oxy-Clean doesn’t remove anything from the carpet.. it just leaves a light spot where the stain used to be. What a waste :P
…do you like it?
I had to reinstall Wordpress, due to some pretty crappy database issues. Since they were database issues, I also could not export the tables, so, here it is. Blank. A new slate.
However! Thanks to Google, all of my old shit is cached, and I can get the good stuff back. A lot of it is expendable, but there was some stuff that was good, dammit!
I’ll be spending today recovering, and working on pre-existing projects at the same time.
I needed a phone jack installed in my office at work. This is the resulting “completed work”:
“A” for effort, guys! :(
This is where I work. Well, where I used to work, anyway. They moved my office into the building you can’t see in this photo, behind where I was standing. Happy Halloween!
