It’s 7 degrees in Topeka. I’m freezing my butt back.
The other day, I felt like I was skating again. After I woke-up, I had to take our baby outside to do her business. I talked to Daisy the other day about the whole dog-owner-leash-dog relationship. I don’t think she understood. Yesterday morning, in her eagerness to pull me to her potty spot, I started slipping and sliding. I ended up losing my balance on the ice and falling 4 times on my back. One of those times, I also hit a rock. I was a little pissed off at the dog.
But this morning, we managed to get some cuddle time on the couch while listening to Senator Clinton’s interview on Morning Edition. We’re doing better.
Another feel good tactic – watching clips from the Daily Show and Colbert Report. Colbert is so cute! Stewart is a genius! And watching their bizarre/insightful take on the news media always makes me smile. Stewart once said in the promo that if people are watching his show for the news – stop doing that! I’m in the business of reporting news and he helps make of it all….while at the same time intriguing viewers to find out more about what the white house, politcal leaders and corporations are doing to the American people.
So, I stumbled on this fan video on Youtube about Stewart, Colbert and Steve Carell. I know it has no real bearing on reality – but it’s fun to watch.
And it made me feel better.
Apparently Daisy has established that you’re not the alpha dog in the relationship 😉
