I witnessed some strange things over the holidays, and I guess you could say some of them were rather beastly.

For one thing, I set up a little baby doll crib for my youngest daughter, Mya - 18 months. It was a little white plastic snap together affair, and it came with some bedding and a little peace of cloth that was intended to fasten to the top rails of the crib forming a kind of hammock, intended to allow the baby doll of choice to sit in said hammock as opposed to laying in the bed.

I couldn't help but notice that the affair looked like something that would be sold at Bed Bath and Beyond.

Now, this has nothing but everything to do with anything, but my sister-in-law has a new puppy. He's a Jack Russell terrier. He's about 6 months old cute as hell and hornier than afore mentioned inferno.

Since we brought three dogs ourselves, the dogs all played a lot. We are still housing a runaway beagle that we found. Our vet informed us that she isn't fixed, and the little jack Russell at 6 months old was very keen to pick up on this.

So all week during the holidays, we're chasing this jack Russell off this visiting beagle, because its one thing to get stuck with a runaway dog, but quite another to get stuck with a runaway dog that is knocked up.

Well to make a short story long, the two little dogs (beagle and Russell) played non-stop until they wore each other out. And one of those days, I caught the Jack Russell trying to sleep one off in my daughters banana hammock. That's just wrong .. ... ...
