Sometimes I get ideas of topics for blog posts, but by the time I sit down to write, I can't remember what they were. Lately, I've been busy trying to resist the urges to smoke (not so hard) or to clean closets. You'd think it would be easy to not clean closets... but in some Bizarro-World, it's been harder than I would have guessed. Yet I'm persevering. However, I think tomorrow might be "pull all the books off my four bookcases, dust everything, sort and reorganize books, return to shelves in proper alphabetical and/or Dewey Decimal order" day. Because my life is just that exciting, and I am that big a book nerd. I might actually have a difficult time sleeping tonight.
I've been a bit lax in keeping up with stories about BroZarkWin (tm). You'll have to wait a week or so for significant updates on Darwin, because at the moment he remains an enormous mess, pretty dirty, undercoat all clumped, and varying amounts of yard debris tangled in his tail and undercarriage. His day is coming, though... he has an appointment at Little Suzie's next Thursday. If we don't somehow (miraculously) manage to bath, brush, de-mat, and de-undercoat him this weekend, I'll go pawn a kidney or something and let the pro handle it. They do such an awesome job with my large, unruly, ridiculously-thick-coated dogs.
Today, we'll focus on the "Bro" and "Zark" portions of BroZarkWin (tm). First, some photos of Brody taken yesterday, the minute I got him home from Little Suzie's. Thus far, he has been kept in the pool area when he goes outside. I know that when he does go out in the yard, all the leaves and twigs will be drawn instantly to his beautiful, clean, fluffy tail, and I simply can't bear the thought. Behold the Beautifulness that is Brody!
(See my many, many rear dew claws? I have a total of 22 toes, with 23.5 toenails. It's complicated. But awesome.)
Ozark has been busy, too. He goes to work with me at least twice a week. Besides keeping me company, he has become Chief Puppy-Sitter. At 114 pounds and 10 years old, Ozark is extremely patient, gentle, and indulgent with puppies. When they get a bit bigger, he starts to get nervous about them. But when they're small, like little 11-pound, 5 month old Murphy, a mini Australian Shepherd owned by Dr. White, he loves them.
(Happy much?)And, for the Grand Finale... a couple of video clips I shot today! Try not to smile... I dare you!

awww I heart Ozark. He's good buddies with Odin. :)
If we come to your place around Christmas, we should bring Ozark. He'd love to play, and it's better that way than trying to bring your boys here, and deal with my other two dogs acting like psychotic nut-jobs. :-)
