Guess what everyone!~ TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY (aka Burpday & Barkday) I'm 7 years old! Since today is also RANDAY & my birthday - I hereby christen this entire week - RANWEEK!
It will be a weeklong celebration... More festivities to come!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYPUP, KITTY & HAMMIE! May all of you have a wonderful holiday with your peoples...get lots of stuff from Santa Paws & remember in your prayers all the animals in shelters/on the street/or lost & looking for their furever homes...
Happy Randay Everypup~! I'm having a great Randay so far...I was able to use my dad's legs as a very comfortable pillow...as I've mentioned before, he's so whipped that he doesn't dare try to move his legs...
Then it was playtime with Shamu...Luckily Shamu was able to take the day off from SeaWorld here in San Diego...Here I look gigantic as if I'm holding the live, swimming, squirting Shamu!...No, this isn't the real Shamu...just the Shamu that hangs out in the souvenir shop...
Nothing like a nice nap on Randay in front of the ole Christmas tree...
Here I am balancing my smiley face squeekers on my paw-paws...I'm quite good at it!
Now I thought I'd show a very silly face picture of me in front of my DWB Randi Wall of Fame...I hope you all are having a relaxing Randay while your peoples are finishing up all their holiday stuff...On this Randay, I am thankful for all the love my peoples give me & 
Hey! First off...If everyone could go over to Poppy the Blonde Chihuahua's Blog...She just had surgery yesterday & needs all of our pawsitive energy right now....
Ok, thanks so much for listening...Me & my honking Mallard Duckie are gonna close our eyes & send pawsitve energry right now...
I thought I'd get into the festive holiday spirit by singing a few songs...Here I'm imitating Bono in the rendition of "Baby Please Come Home".... I'm belting out the part, "and all the fun we had last year..."
Here I'm humming "What a Wonderful World"...
This one is quite easy to figure out..."Silent Night" - But I've added a twist...I'm whisting the entire song! Hard to do, I know...But I'm been practicing!...
I just went up an entire octive...WHISTLING! I'm gonna need some water after this!
Its hard being humble when you can sing, hum & whistle as well as I can - even though my mom thinks her voice blends well with mine - whatever!...But I let my mom/secretary think I'm singing along with HER when in reality, I'm making her sing with ME! It'll be our little secret! OK!
Happy Randay Everybody! I started my day by sleeping in & then going on a long walkie...Here I am walking myself...leash & all...Sometimes you just have do it all on your own...
Here is Winston (aka Pip-Squeek)...I terrorized him for a good while after the walk...
Then I took a nap outside & enjoyed the sunshine...
Then it was time for my dad & I to watch football! San Diego was playing...other than that...I know nothing...I was too busy napping & dreaming I was running & kicking my paw paws & fluttering my eyelashes...all occupied by dreamland....Here I woke up when my mom/secretary took the picture & the flash went off...Do you think she's ever heard the saying, "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie"? Guess not...
Finally I can show you my Randi Wall of Fame! Look at all my cards! & you don't even see the other end of the garland thingy....I feel so happy to have so many wonderful friends! On this Randay, I am thankful for the my weight loss, which will make me live a lot longer & have a lot more energy to run & play...
Good grief! What does a pretty doggie have to do around here to get her mom/secretary to do her job? I wonder if any other pups have had similiar human slack-off experiences lately...my mom keeps apologizes....something about holiday chaos...but whatever...excuses! Oh, by the way...here I am with my shadow above! Luckily, my shadow seems to have lost weight as well!
Guess what? I've lost another 5 pounds! Now I'm 90 pounds! A skinny, sassy little thing, mind you! I don't think this camera angle is most flattering, but I do like the flowers...its christmas-time in San Diego, so there are still flowers around...
Here I look quite happy...and I am...I have a lot of things to be happy for...& closing my eyes just in time for the camera click is one of them. But underneath, I am sad....as most of you probably know, our dear Thrawn of the Brat Pack went to the Bridge yesterday. He was a beautiful boy who will be very missed by Maryann, Tucker, Dot-Spot, Samantha & Bear. They lost their dear Dakota just one week before I lost my brother Dublin at the end of March 2007. So this will be a very sad season for them. Please go over there & give them your love. Run free Thrawn & give my brother a big hug & kiss from his little sister!
Happy Randay Everyone! Its been a lazy day for me...napping, eating, napping, eating, napping, tennis ball roundup & more napping....but I must show you this evidence of abuse that I suffered at the hands of my mother today...Here I am above, minding my own business...I look pretty skinny here I think...
Suddenly, I'm engulfed by glitterly, shiny gold stuff! What the #&%)? 
Then came the red berry circle twigs....
I took care of that stuff...it will not longer be used in any type of torture or holiday decorating...
Once again, the gold stuff....So embarassing...Please call the ASCPA...or at least please call Santa Paws & tell him I've been extraordinarly good to put up with this type of nonesense. PLEASE!
So sorry for being unavailable this week...blame my mom/secretary & the internet pooping out...its finally fixed...thank goodness! Since another storm decided to dump some rain on San Diego, me & my peoples decided to take a peek at the big waves that were supposed to call all the surfers to the beach...anyway...the waves were a dud when we were there ..but here is a pic of me enjoying the car ride...I love car rides.
It rained again last night & most of the day today...its supposed to rain all weekend! Here is me with a silly fleece coat that my mom made for me when we lived in St. Paul... I wish it was pink instead of green...
Yep..its Pip-Squeek Winston on the left....he is always trying to irritate me...I wish I could lasso him like a wild pig & pig tie him...I'll definately post about that when I figure out how to lasso...
I was just chomping on a bone before...every now & then its fun to nibble on a raw hide...I don't do it too often...My faithful Barney the Boa Constricter looks on...
He makes a great pillow too! But sometimes I think his eyes are kinda freaky. Anyway can you all go over to Harry & Cassidy's blog...their kitty, Flakes, passed over to the Bridge today...As most of you know, they lost their precious Oscar at the end of July...but luckily Harry & Cassidy came to live with them to dry their tears...Please keep them in your thoughts during this sad time.
Happy Randay Everybody! Its been a great Randay so far...I've stuck to my usual routine of sleeping in, morning belly rubs & nose kisses, morning walk, breakfast, mid-morning nap, playtime, lunch, after-lunch nap & now I'm focusing on my bloggy! The pic above was taken yesterday morning after the storm started to float to the east across the US...except its dropping snow on everybody else! The sky was really gray...
Today its nice & sunny for Randay...I had to special order it...With me is my new SeaWorld baby seal...I named him Oooga-Booga...
Yep - its so sunny that I had to wear my straw hat...I feel kinda bad talking about sun & straw hats when so many other pups are playing in the snow & their peoples don't like it...but I'd love to have snow ...Maybe I'll order it next week for Randay...
Here I am taking my Randay afternoon siesta...
And my trusty Honking Mallard will be getting plenty of honking attention this afternoon. On this Randay, I am thankful for all the new friends I'm meeting with the DWB Holiday Card Exchange!
