Joe, please don't leave again!

I'm not going to appologize for being behind on writing I'm merely going to explain to you how I spent my week.

Let's see.... Joe went out of town for work on Monday morning not to return until late Thursday night. At first I thought, cool, I can have the bed to myself, watch cheesy TV without fear of mocking, that was not how this plan played out.



Monday night I realized started a new season of TV shows, mainly House, but there were a couple other cheesy shows that I'll get to in a moment. So I got home, thankful for an accident free house from Sophie. Settled down on the living room couch with my Totino's Pizza and House on the TV. Great episode byt the way! No spoilers from me, just a real good episode! Once that ended I decided to go and read a little. I'm currently reading Shoe Addicts Annonymous. GREAT book!! It's really funny and well written! I was going to get in bed all comfy like... Yeah, Sophie peed on the comforter... So instead of relaxing I had to change the sheets and take the comforter off. More of a process than I intended when going to relax and read. Well the fun, doesn't stop there. Come bedtime, Sophie started barking and staring into the hallway like there was someone there. There was not. All doors were locked. So I started off with turning the Living room light off all the way. I had it dimmed a bit since when I'm home alone I like a little comforting light from another room. So I rolled over and went back to sleep. She started at it again. This time I thought, ok I'll shut the bedroom doors so she can't see into any other rooms. Rolled over and went back to sleep. She went at it AGAIN. This time I assumed she must be hearing something, so I turned the radio on. Rolled over and went back to sleep. She continued AGAIN. So this time I thought fine. I'll turn the light on, so you can see clearly, whatever it is you are barking at and realize you are cooler than it, thus should not bark. This seemed to be the ticket cause when I rolled back over to sleep at 1:30, she followed suit.



I got home to yet another accident free night. I ate my dinner while watching the other shows I TiVo'ed from Monday night... Cheese and Cheesier. I watched faithfully One Tree Hill it's entire run, thought Monday night's episode will be my last. It has been horrible and it's just getting worse. I hate when a show is dragged on beyond it's time. Doesn't end well. Anyone an ER fan? 2 seasons too long! So we watched our TV shows, then went to go outside and play only to find that Sophie had not had an accident free day. She decided to pee on the doormat by the back door. This I'm not as upset about because it's A only really for decoration, and B can fit in the washer and dryer, something my comforter cannot. So that night we go to bed and the barking begins again. Thank goodness I learned from Monday night. I started with turning the light on Tuesday night. This worked. I was even able to turn the light off in the middle of the night so that it didn't have to be on all night.



Tuesday night I got the amazing news that Mom and Dad had smoked a whole ham just for me!! So on my way home I stopped to pick up this amazing gift! Wednesday night is my FAVORITE night of the week! So You Think You Can Dance is on and it's followed by one of the best shows of all time GLEE!! Happiness for 2 hours straight. This was a good sleeping night too. We all managed to get good sleep and I also believe Sophie was truly accident... oh wait.. nope she wasn't. That's right...



Thursday was a super day. I woke up feeling hungover, though I hadn't had a drop of alcohol. Then I got to go to the dentist. A place I normally don't mind. My dentist however got a new hygenist and let me tell you, I hope she is gone by the time I go back in 6 months. Lectures, I do not need. Tell me once and at 27, I'll do with it what I want. You certainly don't need to repeat yourself and poke me with your sharp tools just to prove your point. I get it already. AGAIN, I'm 27 and able to take in words and comprehend them, and choose to do with them what I want. I have been going there for 10 years... you have worked there for less than 6 months...



After leaving the dentist, I still felt hungover and then a little aggravated, so after a yummy lunch of leftover smoked ham, I took a nap! So as you can see not much time to blog.



I promise something fun to talk about this weekend though. It will not revolve around Sophie. I promise. She is sweet, but she has taken over my life these last few weeks!!



Happy Day!
