Back In Business


We just got back from California.  We went for Rob's sister's wedding. We had a great time seeing everyone, but it wasn't a terribly relaxing trip.  Weddings are a busy time!
The drive was so LONG and we are so tired.  Anyway, hopefully I'll get around to posting about our trip, catching up on all of your blogs,  and my NYTimes op-eds soon.  First I have to clear all the dog poo that accumulated in our front yard up.  There is a reason I don't have a dog and the crap is a major one.  So is it neighborly to fling the poo on my neighbors yard or should I just suck it up and put it in my trash?  My neighbor is very nice, I just hate that his dogs think my yard is their personal toilet.  Anyway, I'm tired and am going to bed.

We've discussed and concluded: FLING IT.

Was so great to see you guys and celebrate with Whit and Jim. We need to all get together more often.

We need to plan a time when everyone can be present, we can just relax and play together, and no one need stress about anything. Who's going to be the planner/coordinator?

If it's their crap, it's their crap.

So nice to see you back Anna. I've had to go to the NYT myself in your absence.

I was wondering if you were gone. Welcome back!
People should NOT let their dog poo in your yard...EVER! I would put a stop to that.

I hate it when dogs (including mine) poo. It's theirs. Glad you're back, missed you.

Briana said...

Yep, I definitely say fling it! Perhaps that is the natural man side of me - okay it definitely is. But, I really don't like dogs and I think it is ridiculous that you have to deal with that. I would talk to your neighbor about it too.

Anyways... can't wait to see pictures of Whitney's wedding!

So glad you are back. I have been checking and checking, wondering when you would return.

Sorry your neighbor isn't being responsible for their dogs poo.

Glad to see you back, dearie. Looking forward to the updates on your trip.

And, speaking of back, don't you just love having Tom Friedman back at NYT? I could jump for joy.

Anna: perhaps, with research, you could learn to compost the dog poop. It's mostly just corn.

I don't think I've ever seen the word poo used so often! I think that you should just throw it away and talk to your neighbor about the problem... no sense in creating tension with your neighbor... but it is a problem so a nice friendly chat about their dogs bowel movements might help lessen the issue... but lets face it, it's a dog and will go wherever it darn well feels like... kind of like men and peeing!

Yeah, I love other people's dogs. I love that there are people out there who have dogs. But I don't want one.
