2010 -- Year of the Dog (Bite)

So, 2010 started out interestingly enough.

Dog leg-hole 2, the Quickening

Walking Dinky in the late am, after a pretty uneventful New Year's Eve, the Editor-in-chief of FppInternational was surprised by a red Chow Chow off his leash half a block from corporate headquarters. The owner of this Chow Chow was running after it, yelling. The Chow Chow, named, we found out later, Leon (or Lion in Spanish) ran towards FppInternational features editor Dr. Dinkus Reichlin, Phd. in a manner that suggested Leon wanted to engage in less-than-civil discourse. So, the quick-thinking FppInternational editor-in-chief lifted the features editor into the air, to avoid the hostile canine takeover. Leon, unappreciative of Fpp's move, chomped his cursed teeth into our editor's leg.

So, a trip to the emergency room and a tetanus shot later, all is well at corporate headquarters. And really, isn't this better than a hangover?

Happy New Year, buy some iodine.

BTW... I am writing all cool and stuff now, but Goddamn was I mad at the time. I yelled and swore and made a big amount of ruckus when that damned beast was finally tied down.

Dinky was oblivious to the fact that he almost got mauled by a 60 pound cougar-like monster, and I think he's pissed at me that his morning walk was shortened.

Take care, enjoy your 2010.
Kisses,
FPP
