Omygoodness, Dear Readers!
Alpha has been so busy! And you know how much she loves to be busy, but I tell you, she hardly has time to feed me, let alone take me for Nice Walks! And she HOGS the computer so I can't get my blogging time. She either sits there ignoring me with her headphones on, or she's gone.
And of course, I'm not the only one who is neglected. She let out a faint little screech the other day when she realized that she had LET HER 8TH BLOGIVERSARY pass by without even remembering it or mentioning it! How is that even possible, I ask you?! That woman has blogged faithfully most all the days of eight years, and then boom, nothing! Eight YEARS! How is a little Yorkie of only three-and-a-half years supposed to compete with that? Does that mean she is going to just dump me, too?!
I despair.
I'm fading away fast, I tell you. Soon you will have to stage an intervention, I fear.
Well, last weekend was fun, anyway. We had a guest. We had another cutie-pie little Yorkie, Chloe, here for a sleepover on the weekend. She's so pretty and sweet.
But I'm a lot louder, and I'm really GOOD at getting in the way if Alpha and David are saying nice things to Chloe, so I'm not sure which is better. I think probably ME.
See how cute we are together? Alpha would like you to know that it wasn't all that easy to corral the two of us. Or so she says. So it took a couple of biscuits. BIG DEAL.
Sorry this photo is a bit dark, but Alpha says she doesn't have time to fix it. And here I am, as you can see, in my usual place where I'm supposed to be, which is RIGHT IN THE FRONT.
You know.
So ohmygosh, Alpha is prepping to caption a speech of an interesting visitor -- make that two -- over the next couple of days, but that's all I can say about it under pains of NO MORE BISCUITS from She Who Runs This Place.
Suffice it to say, she's kind of excited. And Excited Alpha is good. As long as I stay out of her way. And I'd suggest you do, too, if you want your biscuit!
Love and kisses,
Mr. Jefferies
Congratulations on 8 years. I'm guessing I've been reading for nearly 5. I do enjoy your blog, and you haven't offended me yet. ;)

Mr J - be sure and give her a bump now and then to remind her to post. Some of us have been reading her for 8 years...
And tell her Happy Blogiversary!

Happy Blogiversary! I thought you had given it up with no goodbye. Glad that is not the case. Please drop in when you can. I miss your distinctly Norma world view.

Mr. J., if you are being neglected, you just hop a train to CT. I'll let you use the computer all you want! xxx

Happy blogiversary!
I do know there's a political visitor coming to speak at UVM... And I know you do captioning work for that school from time to time...
I don't suppose you'll be close enough to get him to hold a sock?

Happy 8th! I'm impressed as I didn't make it past 3.
Mr. J -- you just get yourself to a truck stop and have somebody drop you off at the lovely visitor center right near Brattleboro. Give me a call and I'll run over to get you. Tux needs somebody to set him straight (silly kitty) and you're just the guy to do it. I'll have a computer set up just for you along with biscuits and a lovely big pillow.
p.s. we have lots of room to run and squirrels to chase.

Happy 8th Blogiversary! Glad the radio silence is over for now since I've been reading your blog for years, and years, and years-love it!
Mr. J, some sweet kisses for Alpha will certainly work in letting you blog on Tues. again-and maybe get you a biscuit or two.

Hey sweetie Jefferies, tell your Alpha Happy Blog day, mkay?
Oh my, little Chloe is quite the cutie (!!), are you asking for another play weekend?
ahaaa... well, now we know, or at least some of us know "who". ;)
