Sid may act tough, but he’s a momma’s boy at heart. Sid and Jenn spent a good chunk of the weekend snuggling while catching up with Law and Order SVU on Netflix instant. We’ll spare you the audio portion which consisted of various lyrics about Sid set to the tune of the show’s theme song and sung in falsetto by Jenn and me.
I’ve been sick all weekend and luckily I had Jenn and Sid around to help nurse me back to health. They made sure I got plenty of rest, plenty of soup, and plenty of face-licking. I’m almost back on my feet but my normal voice has been replaced with a very deep, raspy whisper. I sound similar to a washed-up chain-smoking Hollywood starlet well past her prime. I apologise to anyone who tried to call me and thought they had mis-dialed.
Even though we all live in close quarters here, surprisingly no one else in the the house got sick. Hopefully by tomorrow PugSlope HQ will be up and running at 100%.
P.S. This photo also shows Sid’s recent foray into uncharted territories – under the covers. More on that to follow!
After Sid’s Christmas 2010 “Blizzard of Toys” (parts 1 and 2), you’d think we would take a break from spoiling the little dude and let our bank account recover. We’ll, you’d be wrong.
Whenever we order stuff from Amazon, we always wind up tacking a dog toy or seven onto the order. So when Jenn ordered her 2011 desk calendar on December 22nd, we added on a few items for the Sid-man. Whether it was the blizzard, the free super-saver shipping, or the general holiday craziness, we’ll never know, but our package wound up getting severely delayed.
It finally showed up today.
Remember the baby frog that Sid got from Grandma Demski back in October? Well, he had practically worn the thing out from chewing and licking and other forms of man-handling, so he was practically floored when a brand spanking new one showed up today in the package from Amazon.
After a swipe with his deft hand, Sid knocked Frog 2.0™ to the floor and began the process of attacking it via a method referred to as “death by saliva”.
We had a great Christmas this year in NY, and despite our worries about surviving the winter weather, Christmas day actually turned out to be extremely clement (I write this as we are currently mid-blizzard – more on that in another post).
Sid ended up with two new puzzle toys that have instantly become his current favorites. One of these puzzle toys was a Martha Stewart Chicken Coop which has 3 tiny chicks that live inside of a plush house.

Jenn went to Arkansas to visit her childhood friend this weekend so the boys took over the apartment.
