Dog sitting day five: trying to tire out the doggo has tired us out. Nap time for all! :neocat_flop__w:

Day four.. My wife and I are both quite tired of dog-sitting. We'd like to eat our meals without being started at, now, please. Never mind the fur everywhere, needing to keep her occupied, the smell~

We still have her for another day and a half, lol..

That word looks wrong, did I spell it right?? :blobcatthink:

Today's dog-sitting: she has found her squeaky toy.

Night one: dog was restless, making me nervous and unable to sleep.

Night two: dog was.. completely silent! Conked out, didn't hear her move all night - so I was also able to sleep well.

We're entering night three.. And the dog is restless again.
What? Why?

I thought we'd cracked the exercise levels and so on, but apparently not..

Day three: Everything smells of dog. I am finding dog fur in rooms she hasn't been in.

She is cute, though, I'll give her that :Blobhaj_Mlem:

The smell of dog is.. pervasive, isn't it :neocat_woozy:

My wife and I are dog-sitting this week. I've never had a dog, so my wife, who has quite a lot of experience with them, is taking it easy on me. She's currently sitting with the doggo downstairs, leaving me to work upstairs.

This doggo is a Golden Retriever, and the owners said she was "very well behaved". So far, that seems to be very true - the only sound I've heard in the last hour is the thump, thump, thump of her wagging tail against the ground, which is quite endearing :Blobhaj_Ani_Hophop:

@pippa My wife has the same thing! We think it kickstarts her digestive system and makes her hungrier than normal.. very odd

@penwing I did the same yesterday! Power to you, definitely worth doing, but it's a horrible form. Good luck <3

What a weekend!

I have gone out for multiple walks in the sun, done some very productive shopping. I have painted three paintings, and written 1000 words of a new fiction project. I have read a book, and played video games - and it's not even 8pm on Sunday yet! I still have a few hours of fun left!

What HAPPENED? And can it happen again every weekend, please?! :ablobcatbongo:

@masukomi Oh so that's the Aro-ace flag? I learned something, thank you! And a happy "Absolutely not" to all who celebrate :p

IKEA knows it's customer base well :blobhaj_flag_transgender:

My wife, muttering to herself: "Let's see.. she uses Himalayan Dolphin Baby.."

Me: "What???" :neocat_floof_owo:

My wife: "It's a type of Yarn! Don't worry!!"

Mastodon! We have sensible bedtimes.

My wife says, out of nowhere: "Please confirm your address."

Me: :neocat_catmode:

Me: "What?? What are you talking about, you LIVE here!"

My wife: "Your EMAIL, you have an email! Confirm your email address to register your signature to a petition!"

I needed the context :neocat_melt:

Justice Venkata Jyothirmai Pratapa rejected arguments that tie womanhood exclusively to reproductive capacity, declaring such views “legally unsustainable” and contrary to the Indian constitution’s guarantees of dignity, equality and identity.

UK take notes please
