Coughdrops and blueberries, monthlies and charity.
1. I found Little Filthy in the bedroom with his head buried in my winter coat which I had lazily thrown to the floor in an effort to peel off layers. I heard crunching noises and yelled, “Hey!” He jerked out his head out of my coat pocket. I leaned down and he licked me. He smelled like menthol. Yeah. He found a Halls cough drop. The other day, I brought in some groceries and set a bag down on the ground while I ran to grab more things from the hallway. I returned to find Little Filthy muzzle-deep in a container of blueberries. No good can come of this.
2. Besos and I have been dating nearly 3 months. Okay, more like 7 months but I kicked and screamed the first 4 months so that doesn’t really count. Having been around the block a few times, I’ve finally learned what everyone says over and over. The big thing is communication. So I proposed an idea to Besos and she readily agreed to it. Basically, once a month, we have a very frank, 100% honest, 100% judgment free conversation on the state of affairs. Good or bad. General rule is that it doesn’t happen in bed because I couldn’t take her seriously with that grin always on her face.
bu-dum-bump. *rimshot*
3. I’m judging a contest for charity on Wednesday night. The contestants? Reality television ‘stars’. So far, I know about 3 contestants – one each from The Bachelorette, Survivor, and Project Runway. Not sure about the others. Should be interesting.
4. That reminds me…I stupidly agreed to be a contestant in a contest in February. Doing what? Mixing a cocktail. It is going to be tragic. But it is for charity so it’s the kind of tragedy I can get behind.

Just a random attorney writing about daily life with Little Filthy, my rotten dog.
