haha sounds like you have a crazy on your hands as well! :lol: I'd love to see a picture, that sounds adorable. I have a japanese chin.. bred exclusively for royalty so they aren't exactly great at the whole 'obeying' thing. I couldn't ask for a funnier, happier, lovier dog, but he's impossible -____-

Here's my Ted
Image

That was at 10-ish weeks, he's now 20 weeks and twice as fluffy! I must take a more recent pic.

I've just had to google Japanese Chin as I'd not heard of that breed before - too cute! It appears that the Pekingese is a distant relative too.

You should post a pic of your dog in the 'Show Off Your Pets" thread - it needs reviving!!

Naww, cute puppy!


I'm happy today because I FINALLY met Jane (Jungle Dread)! It was awesome. I had to give her some wool for some of her amazing art yarn, so we met up for coffee and had a good chit chat!

I'm also happy because I bought a second hand PS2 and Ratchet & Clank. Will be getting 5 more games this week!

that IS awesome.
I'd say all kinds of patterns and tutorials, not just crochet.

and the fact that after not watching wrestling for a good few years I can get back in to it after watching one event makes me happy,lol. and the fact most of the wrestlers I used to love are still in it!

Good coffee, and the radio playing Sunlight by the Bag Raiders followed by Contact High by Arcvitecture in Helsinki.

It really doesn't take much to make me happy :P

Hehehehehe how my puppy looks while wet, and also right after blow-drying. Goes from emaciated wet rat with bulgey eyes to what looks like an electrocuted persian cat :D

When the dog falls off the bed.

It's great when I cover him in the sheet and he wigs out til he topples off.

It's even better when he's so busy staring at my snake he falls off on his own. Then gets stuck in the loop of a duffle bag trying to scurry back to a standing position and look suave. :lol:

I saw The Static Age yesterday and they recognised me from last time :D (at least, that's what I'm claiming, the sceptic in me says they only recognised my shirt), and they played most of my favourite songs ..and I nearly got a hug from Andrew.. but I did get both covers for their new album, one of which is limited edition to 30 copies. And they said they'd see me again soon, which I hope implies they plan on coming back to the UK :D I don't even care that I was stuck on a standstill train for over an hour trying to get there, they totally made up for it.

My fiance is also amazing for rescuing us from further down the train line once our train got moving, and not complaining about being there though I know he didn't really want to. :D

I am happy despite only having one day off this bank holiday weekend :shock:

ok so I went down to the beach tonight to see if I could fin ghost crabs and instead we found this big weird tubular clear blob of rubbery nonsense, which I just figured was a moon jelly or some kind of bizarre invertibrate, so we kind of rolled it around with or feet (with shoes on) and I very lightly poked it with a finger. Then I went online to look up different kinds of washed up jellyfish. Turns out it was a Man O' War (which I should have known but I didn't know there were any around here so I didn't even think of it)

So, I am happy tonight that I only touched the body, not the tentacles :D

:lol: :lol: Well I'm glad it got some laughs, I can't help giggling every time I see it. Even the picture that his face was taken from was hilarious.. that face, that look of absolute horror.. well, that was taken when he was looking at me. :lol:
If I get back on my home pc I'll try and make some more, but they're never as good as the original :lol:
