So, in order to rectify this situation, I decide to send her off to Blogpaws to try to get her motivated again. Worryingly, she seems much more excited about connecting with some of my anipals such as Brewskie Butt's mom or Cosmo Havanese's mom than she is about reigniting my blogging career. So, if you're going to Blogpaws and you see mum, please remind her that she's not just there to have fun! On the plus side, she did manage to score me some of Brewskie's unending bacon hooch at one of the previous Blogpaws so all that socializing has its perks.
I can't begin to tell you how much trouble I've been in at #pawpawties thanks to the Brew's hooch! For anyone who has not discovered Brew's hooch, here I am with a whole jug of the wonderful stuff. Sadly, the last year has been tough and I have lost a lot of my late night Twitter dog pack so please help yourself to my hooch and take a moment to raise your glass in a little rememberance toast to #pawpawty organizer extraordinaire @frugaldougal, my original DJ buddy @cosmohavanese, @sylviedog, the first ever #pawpawty barktender, sekurity chief @brutusthedane, and my wonderful DJs @bunnyjeancook and @sanjeethecat who all left us for the rainbow bridge.
Just in case you were wondering, that thing around Rory's nose is a gentle leader and the black harnesses are seatbelt harnesses. Mum is all about safety - no-one, no matter how many legs, gets to travel without a seatbelt. Even Arthur's cat carrier is strapped in although you can't see him in the picture. If you look carefully though, you may be able to tell that Rory got himself a bit tangled up. I solved that by unhooking him using my special ability to paw at the seatbelt button to spring him free. Come to think of it, Mum wasn't terribly happy about this but I think most people would agree that my ability to unhook a seatbelt is quite impressive. Rory was particularly impressed. I would teach him how to do it but he's a bit of a slow learner. I guess not everyone can be as clever as me.
Well, that's it for now. If you happen to be at Blogpaws, say Hi to Mum and remind her that I need a reliable typist. I would threaten to replace her but she knows just the right places to scratch and she keeps me supplied in treats and rawhides so I guess I'll keep her :)
