Burpday Delay

Ethel's birthday has been delayed for a rain date (this Saturday.) While Khyra helpfully sent down some brief sunshine (thanks girl!) it is too sloppy outside to play with new toys and too, um, inside to let the peppy sheppys loose with new toys.

In the meantime you can read about how Ethel almost shares a burpday with the WORLD'S OLDEST DOG, a 21-year old wiener!

It's MY BIRTHDAY and I'll BLOG IF I WANT TO!

Guess who has a BURPDAY TODAY! ME! ETHEL JEAN!!!! I have live with Wally for FOUR YEARS and I am like FIVE OR SIX which makes me IN MY PRIME!



It is raining for the 9,999 day straight which is stinky but Wally told me I get PRESENTS TONIGHT! OH WHAT DO YOU THINK I WILL GET!!!???? Here I am with some of my favorite BALLS! (HINT HINT WALLY!)





And here I am tackling MY TACKLING DUMMY NAMED OSCAR THAT I GOT LAST YEAR!


Wheeeeeeee!

Chillin' Out

Last week it was HOT and I taught you about beating the heat by roaching. Asta and her mom tried it out with mixed results (good for Asta, not as good for her mom) so I thought I would show you an even more effective method! It worked so well that it is chilled out all over here and is not hot in the outside anymore. I call this method ICE CREAM, I SCREAM!

The ma ape blended together some yogurt and peanut butter and bananas. And then she put it in the freezing box.

Sissy was skeptical.

But she gave it a shot and did not regret it. Alas we do not have any pictures of Oscar trying it because he just swallowed them whole. BRAIN FREEZE!


Here is how you do it properly. You scream.

I SCREAM!

WE ALL SCREAM!


Mmmmm. Ice Cream.

SPCA Saturday (Rainy Day Saturday PUPPY Edition!)

Helooooo! Beast T. Beefcake reporting for duty for SPCA SATURDAY. This week I was very worried that I would wind up on MAURY POVICH because look at the next two pictures.

Beast T. Beefcake.
Bristol T. Babycakes! She is NOT MY BABY! I am 110% certain! She is a baby pit who got adopted by peoples with kids and Bristol is just a baby and she nom-nomed on the kids so she's back in the shelter.

Bristol?

Or BEAST?
Oh here's a new friend Ko the Pit Boo with Webbed Feet! OMD so weird!

And Ronya the sweetie peetie pittie.


And this is Pudge who is totes awesome and walks well on leash (i'll have to work with her on wildin' out on the leash like I do!) She sits like a champ but she has skin problems and is allergic to her own bacteria. Poor bebe.

Meet Harley! She may be part boo-dog because she snorts and snuffles!

This is Marlon. We call him Marlon Lucky like the Cornhusker football player.

Dude can levitate! Whoa.


And now SHHHHHHHHH! Be VERY QUIET! Ooops. I shouted. Ok, here are some bit poo pups! Their mama is a big blue pit who is probably part of a court case.


THESE ARE NOT MY BABEES EITHER!


Beastie outie!

Ethel's Day OUT!

Ethel HERE! Wally let me BLOG because I HAD TO GO TO THE V-E-T! And look who is IN THE CAR WITH ME! He had to have a TICKER CHECK and also GET WEIGHED and also CALM ME DOWN.

I was superduper mad because we got SPECIAL COLLARS from Patience and I don't get to wear mine to the field because I will get it STINKYDIRTY so I'm supposed to wear it when I go OUT and ABOUT but the ma ape couldn't find Wally's MONKEYCOLLAR so he got to wear MY ELVIS COLLAR! And I'm the one who ain't NOTHIN' BUT A HOUND DOG.

When we got there we read the pee mail first and it WARNED US.

And then Wally left some of his own and I read it. BO-RING!


We got weighed and I am 70 POUNDS SKINNY! Wally will not let me SAY THAT HE IS 50 POUNDS FAT. OOOPS! And I tried to hide behind the ma ape and behind Wally but they BETRAYED ME and let the VET poke and prod me!?!!

Haha. Look at the poster in our room! And also I am glad someone is addressing the scourge of FATCATS. I was totally nervous even though Dr. Teti said my TEETH AND COAT ARE A-MAAAAAZING.


I was wily and trying to sit in my ma ape's lap so they couldn't poke my bum. So Wally told some funny jokes.

And I chilled out as much as I ever do--NOT MUCH. And I'm still mad because why did I get POKED and Wally just had his heart listened to???

When we got home I was still mad because my other brudder should have to go get his brain poked because he PEES LIKE ME but he's a BOY so he always pees ON HIS OWN LEG--EWWW!


Look at my ANGER! (If you embiggen the picture I am showing my BEAUTIFUL TEEFERS).


THE WRATH OF ETHEL! Dr. Teti does not EVEN KNOW how I sharpen my teeth ON MY BRUDDER!


I am being PHIL-O-DOG-ICAL here because next week is my BURPDAY.


The ma ape says I will be 5 or 6 which means I am A BIG GIRL NOW and so she said I should have a Bat Mitzvah and I remember once we had a bat in the house and it was funny watching the apes chase it around but she said this will be EVEN BETTER. Wally said we should have a bris for Oscar and that made him giggle but I DON'T GET IT. Why would OSCAR get something for MY BURPDAY! I hope I get some balls to hit with my Bat Mitzvah!

SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!
