The wife and I have two dogs. Two beagles that are siblings - straight off an Indiana farm. These two dogs can be quite obnoxious, violent towards one another, gassy and perpetually lazy.
With that said, each day they both make us laugh. That's good enough for me. Here's a picture of Wrigley. He is very happy in this snapshot. He most have just been given a rawhide or he just finished beating up his sister, Kennedy.
Just came across an old picture that made me laugh. A few years ago, the group was in Gaylord for the Hammy Wedding. The night before, we all spent the night at the MacDonald Compound and got blotto.
The Jay became very altered. So much so, he decided to have a cigarette. Not a common occurrence for Mr. Thurston Blogging, so I thought that I would post the proof of my stupidity.
Behold, the clown. Nothing but class, ladies and gentlemen.
Sharon and I just got back from a long weekend in West Lafayette, Indiana - home of the Purdue Boilermakers. many thanks to the Jacksons for their warm hospitality, company and food & drink. Great times.
The dogs are home as well - freshly bathed after their vacation to the kennel. I'm so friggin' tired from the late-night beer, chips, gambling and beer.
Beer is doubled as I had to drink for two. Not so much had to, as wanted to. This is the last time I'll be drinking beer until the end of June, so I made the most of it.
I have a bit of an upset stomach today. First thought is that it was due to the excess amount of beer, but after further review - it may have to due with my diet. Here is a picture of my lunch.
I've killed a few hours playing this game in my day. If you are ever bored, Uncle Tetris is here for you. However, you've been forewarned that Uncle Tetris smells like Russian Vodka.
In Rod we (absolutly do not) trust. Rod Marinelli is the head coach of the Detroit Lions. His team finished 3-13. He was not fired. In fact, he was allowed to hire his son-in-law Joe Barry.
The coach of the Raiders was fired after going 2-14, and today the San Diego Chargers fired their coach with over 3 million bucks left on his contract. And he finished 14-2! Sure, he lost two playoff games in the last three years, but the Lions haven't been to the playoffs since they moved to Ford Field.
Season Ticket renewal is coming around the corner. Why should I consider paying good money to watch a bad team? The reason is simple - I will never give up on this team. I'll just drink and yell every fall and winter Sunday this year.
Kennedy is our other dog. She is a chubby beagle who loves attention and food that hits the floor. Don't be fooled by how cute she is, but she is a trained killer. If you are a squirrel, bird or mouse - don't come to our yard. Kennedy will eat you in three bites.
She is always excited to play with a squeaky toy that looks like an animal. She has stuffed hedgehogs of various sizes. Those are her favorites. Sometimes in the morning, I will wake up and come downstairs and find three hedgehogs on perfect pile in the middle of the living room. It's as if she is preparing these animals for sacrifice.
Another week down, and another week closer to Little Ms. Baby Thurston making her entrance to the world. This week, her eyelids and eyebrows have formed. She is moving quite bit, according to Sharon. TCO moves around about 50 times each day. She is almost 11 inches long now, but has quite a long way to go.
This week, Daddy bought TCO some Detroit Lions clothes. She will have to wear them once she gets a bit bigger. Maybe by then, they will field a winning team.
Here is a little picture of how she is progressing in her abode:
