Penelope is ruining my life. She is a disaster.
Right now she is napping softly, relaxed and not at all trying to bite my face. Give it time, that will change.
Melvin is also napping softly right next to her. The only difference is that he isn't going to try to kill me later.
Melvin and Penelope are the dogs of a friend of mine for whom I am house/pet sitting this week. Pretty sweet gig. Except Penelope. She's clinically insane. And the thing is, she's potty trained! I haven't had to clean up one accident (knock on wood, finger's crossed, turn around 3 times) and I still think she is a minor pain in my butt!!
And romanticized ideas I had about getting a puppy are loooooooooong gone. Don't let those enormous, sad, grape sized eyes fool you, she is a menace to society. Melvin on the other hand is a phenomenon. He is so relaxed. He loves nothing more than sitting next to me on the couch and watching TV. Or rather, I'm watching TV. Not sure what he's doing. But he's doing it quietly, so it makes little matter to me.
Hooray for dogs.
