I’m Dreaming of a White Boxing Day

White Boxing Day

Happy Boxing Day, Internets!

Earlier I was playing with Sam, throwing around the new toy he got for Christmas. Unlike all his previous toys, it’s plastic, rather than stuffed, and so far he hasn’t taken well to it.

Usually when we’re playing I’ll fake him out a time or two; I’ll throw the toy, he’ll go get it, but then I won’t throw it. Sam’s not the brightest dog ever, and he always falls for it at least three times before finally, the jig is up. This time, I faked him out, and - my hand to God this is true - he ROLLED HIS EYES AT ME, turned in a slow circle, like, "Oh, yeah, whoops, I really fell for it that time, didn’t I?"

I got pity-faked by my dog. And it’s snowing on Boxing Day.

Casablog, Photos, Sam

    Just want to say I love your blog. The writing is great, and I like your take on things. I’m in OK because of life gone sour too, hope mine turns out as good as yours. Bookmarked, I’ll be back.
