I got some good news today. PPRA (Precious Pugs Rescue and Adoption) responded to my application. They want to do a home visit! The bad news here is that we can’t do the home visit until I move into it. That was supposed to be November 1. I really need to find a place to… Continue reading PPRA

Commuter Train
Taking the commuter train every day is an interesting experience. We crowd on at South Station. Some of us trek across the city to board at South Station, knowing that the train will be full if boarded at Back Bay Station, and nobody wants to sit in that dreadful center seat. As one looks around… Continue reading Commuter Train
Lost
The apartment became unavailable. The landlord decided that he was going to move into the first floor apartment (the one Trish is in now) and rent out the second and third floors for $1250. That’s just out of my price range. Always one with an ace up her sleeve, Trish is going to try something… Continue reading Lost
Upgrade Hell, Part 2
I swear, it shouldn’t be this hard. I logged into my US Airways DM account and found my account balance was 19,305 and it should have been 20,205. However, my two e-upgrades had been taken. When I called US Airways, they told me that it takes 72 hours for the e-upgrades to be converted into… Continue reading Upgrade Hell, Part 2

Clever, you seek out knowledge… and eventually use what you know to your advantage. You are very loyal, and you treat your real… Continue reading Year of the Monkey?

I think my dad is going to find himself getting disowned. I sent him a picture of Buddy to demonstrate the type of dog I want to get. His words were “that is ugly.” UGLY? How can anybody think Buddy is ugly? I swear, I must have the dog before christmas so the pug can… Continue reading Disowned
Upgrade Hell
I’m going to San Diego in November for work. I have a coach ticket but don’t want to fly coast to coast in coach again. So I’m going to upgrade to first class. I’m was sitting on 18,205 miles on US Airways. It takes 20,000 miles to upgrade a discounted coach ticket. I also have… Continue reading Upgrade Hell
Possibilities
My friend Greg is an animal rights activist. We’re talking the vegan, protesting type. He has some friends who live in LA. We were talking about how I want to get a pug and he’s a big fan of rescues. He tells me that pugs are coming into LA shelters all the time and they’re… Continue reading Possibilities
Pug Village
I’m totally hooked on the Pug Village website. In fact, I’ve had my mind occupied with getting a pug all weekend. This is getting really exciting.
eBay
I need to stay away from eBay. I keep finding all kinds of doggie accessories that I want to buy. But I really need to get the dog first. What if I buy a crate that’s too big or too small? That would suck.
