My Monthly Diary for July

I just noticed that I didn't update my blog for July. I must have been busy. I can't remember with what tho... hmmm...

Ooh. I remember some stuff. I CAUGHT A BIRD!!! I was in the backyard with Mommy and I spotted a bright yellow bird sitting on the ground eating grass seeds. I snuck up on him and he hopped up into the air and I caught him! I was very excited and so was Mommy, but she was mad excited. She said the birdie was something called a goldfinch and that I wasn't to catch them. Mommy! I have been trying to catch a birdie my entire life and when I finally catch one, IN THE AIR NO LESS, you get mad at me!? Where are your priorities? Anyway, Mommy made me drop the birdie and it sat on the ground looking shocked. Mommy made me go inside for 1/2 hour and when we came back out the birdie was gone. Shame on Mommy.

Shame on Mommy too for forgetting to buy me dog food and making me eat oatmeal for one dinner and breakfast. Does she not know that her most important job is making sure that I am well stocked with food and treats? It is almost as bad as forgetting to buy me shredded cheese to put on my food too, which she did as well. I got Parmesan instead, which was okay, but not as good as the Mexican Four Cheese Mix I like best.

Anyway, to make sure that Mommy learned her place when we slept on the porch the Parmesan cheese night because it was so hot I went out first and slept on the bedroll and refused to move so she ended up sleeping on my travel bed. She seemed awful grumpy the next morning.

Oh yeah! In July I also spotted a really neat hole in the ground on one of our walks. I wondered what had made the really neat hole in the ground and I figured that I should check it out. So I stuck my nose in the hole and took a big sniff and found out that it was made by yellow jackets!! They all flew out of the hole and attacked me!! They bit me on the nose and ears and butt and feet. When Mommy and I got home I had to take a Benadryl because I was swelling up at the bites. Benadryl makes me sleepy so I slept all day.

I can't think of much else that happened in July, but I promise my august update will be more interesting because Mommy and I went on a trip in August.

Holy smokes, that is wot happens when you get stunged by bugs? You swollened up and has to take Bennydrill? No wonner mom always tells me not to put the bitey on those annoying bugs. I will has to rememmer why now. And boo on hasing to drop the burd. Mom maded me drop a burd once and he taked off unharmed. Ditto with the chipmonkey. Ditto with the possum. Ditto with the groundhog. After that I gibbed up putting critters in my mouf. Mom gets rilly mad and I get no cheese. Mebbe that is why you gotted no cheese.

Poor Merlin - sounds like it's been a tough month! My Arwen caught a bird in midair in the middle of the night once. Poor bird swooped down, probably trying to protect its nest, and "CHOMP"! The bird didn't make it, but we robbed her of her prize. We got the hairy eyeball for a few days...
