Walk-ovah'-er

Today I took a stroll several blocks down to my friendly neighborhood bank to make a deposit. on the way there was a low hanging branch that looked to be of sufficient girth, so i looked around to make sure there were no famous people, and upon seeing that there was not, I did a nice swing off of it.
At the bank I stopped to write out a deposit slip and endorse some checks, and as I went to get in the line I was narrowly beaten to the punch by a man with a dog. I was a little taken aback that there was a dog in the bank line, and I saw the bank men in suits giving the stink eyes to the idea as well.
when asked if he had a debit card to verify his account, the man proudly stated(almost verbatim): "No, I don't have a debit card, I used one once in the seventies, and that was enough for me".

In other news, I taught my dog how to stand up on her hind legs for a treat (one step closer to the ultimate goal of the backwards hop"

Milestone.

I feel that I've reached a milestone in my lifetime. the point where you purchase a Halloween costume, for a dog.

Real Fog, Fake Instruments.

Today I got a package in the mail. Inside was the dorkiest thing I've ever received: a light show/ fog strobe light for my Rock Band setup. The lights are cool, but the best part are the plumes of smoke that spill from the unit every thirty or so seconds.
Scares the dog though...

Roll over boy.

Today I was driving to go to Poetter to pick up Stephanie so we could go to Joann's Fabric store. Fabric was not what we went for though, she wanted to look for like clasps and zippers and stuff but they didn't have anything good there so we went a bit farther down Abercorn to the army surplus store and I saw this cool hat but my head was too big.
Anyway on the way over there I saw a dog got hit by a van in front of me, not like run over but just hit. It did a little roll and limped off the road and the van drove off, but I turned around to see if I could help, and I found the dogs owners looking and I pointed out where their dog was and told them what had happened.
I think the dog is going to be alright though. I also think the person thinks that I'm the one who hit their dog, which is awkward because I see them sometimes when I'm walking my dog...

Stephanie bought me a 6 pack of Pez© at Joann's
