OBSESSIONS



So, Gus and I are obsessed with food.  We live for our next meal and other eatable things.  We are obsessed about going out on walks because we get little various treats (like dried duck breast; beef, turkey, and lamb jerky just for dogs; dried beef liver bits, etc.), all of them legal for Gus.  (With all of his allergies, you know.)  And we just adore those smells everywhere!

We are also obsessed with bath time and our little ‘Cuz squeaky balls we play with after the bath.

 
We love our Skinneeze, too.  Sort of an obsession, but not all the time.











But our Guardian is obsessed with something totally strange.  She calls it “Artistic Rubber Stamping.”  She spends DAYS in the basement, hunched over a table, moving around wooden and other blocks with a rubbery thing on them, smacking them on some kind of thing first to color the rubber, then pressing them on paper. She sometimes forgets to take us out and....and she forgets to eat.  That's just WRONG!

She also sits at a computer for hours taking what she says are classes to learn how to do this better. How you do this on a computer is puzzling.  (Humans are SO puzzling anyway!)   

She has these special coloring sticks.  She says they’re “Kohpix” or something like that.  She ought to have one of those college degrees, with all the classes she’s taken on stamping.  She keeps filling up the house with her “art works,” putting them on furniture, clipping them to this white board thing-y on the wall…and so on.

So, here are some of the pictures she’s made. I don’t know why she doesn’t have any pugs in them, though.  And she SO ignores us while she's making them.













She assures us she’ll get around to a pug picture, too. Hah!  won't believe it 'til I see it!

Not a single pug here. Except me, Gus. And the thing that works the lights, too. See it? Me neither. But Guardian swears it's there.
