Winning. There is only winning here.

Ahoy there, my curious congregation of bloggees (which should be a word. I'm the blogger, you're the bloggee, right? Exactly). Dog Blogger #2 is in da house, and yes, she's rockin' the slang. Buzz words. Catch phrases of these modern days. Granted 'in da house' is a bit passe, but you know what's on the up-and-up? WINNING. Thank you, Charlie Sheen. I hear that phrase everywhere. Let me explain to you - take my metaphorical hand - and let's delve into WINNING.

Looking This Good On Your First Day of Daycare? WINNING. 

Good job, Madison. F'reals. 

****

Managing to Capture a Picture of a Pouncing, Prancing Chihuahua Puppy on His First Day? WINNING. 

...but I'm not the only one winning. George, pictured here, did brilliantly. People stopped what they were doing, and gaped at this fearless, happy-go-lucky little guy. They would stop and stare. Seriously. 

**** 

Conveying Depth in Your Expression in One Photo, and Making Meryl Streep and Annie Leibovitz Jealous? WINNING. 

Have you seen such contemplation in a Boston? YOU HAVE NOW. 

**** 

Having Your Eyes Complement Your Hair Perfectly? WINNING. 

Wait, wait: it should be "Having Your Eyes Complement Your Hair Perfectly - without the assistance of a hair colorist?" Umber, you rock my socks. 

**** 

Pretending You Don't Want the Toy, and Stealing It Back When My Guard is Down? WINNING. 

Murfy: 1, Dog Blogger #2: 0

**** 

Snagging the First Spot in Line for Walks? WINNING. 

Waiting is for chumps. And non-winners. Losers. 

**** 

Looking This Adorable When You Wake Up? WINNING. 

I've tried this, but it doesn't work. I need, like, 45 minutes; a hair dryer; and an obscene amount of mascara. 

**** 

Having Your Best Friend at Your Favourite Place to Hang? WINNING. 

In fact, they both win. It's win-win. I love that word. WIN. 

****

Scoping Out the New Digs Before Settling In? WINNING. 

You have to check out everything - even the neighbors - before staking a spot as your own. 

**** 

Relaxing While the Bostons Entertain Themselves, Other Dogs, and You? WINNING. 

...I'm not sure if you knew this--but I pretty much have the best job ever. I mean, other than the guy who taste-tests ice-cream (yum!) and, maaaaaybe Oprah. 

**** 

Getting Almost Thirty Dogs - including one rascal of a pup - to Stay Still for a Photo? WINNING. 

**** 

Enjoy the loooong weekend, folks - don't forget the SPF and that we're closed for Monday!
