NG, Meet Youtube.

Haaaaaaapy Friday, Poodles! Thank heaven it's finally here! How was everyone's week? Judging by the blogs I keep up with it's been a busy one all the way around.

Mine is no exception to that rule. I spent yesterday's workday catching up on the work orders I hadn't invoiced yet, and after work it was family haircut night. I swear I'm still finding little pieces of hair on me from that event! Can't complain, though - it keeps my skills (and my shears) sharpened!

I can't say that I have a witty, introspective, thought-provoking post for you today, but I do have some insanely cute video footage, captured by yours truly!

Let me set up the clip for you! (Don't I sound like I'm on Letterman?!) New Girl is spending the morning with me while Sparky is out running bids. She's 11-weeks old now and she's finally getting some more energy. She's discovered one of the joys in her life is crawling into my lap (while I'm at the computer) and watching my mouse pointer move around on the screen. This is where my bright idea was formed.

I figured if she likes watching a mouse pointer then she would LOVE Youtube videos. And if she loves Youtube videos, then she'd go nuts for a video with a cat in it. So off I went to find just the right mix of up-close-and-personal cat footage and meow-filled audio.

This is the video NG and I finally decided on...



So NG gets settled in on my lap, I get my camera ready (cell phone camera, sorry for the crappy quality!) and away we go.

And this...this is the adorableness that ensued (complete with my muffled snickers and camera shaking as I'm attempting to hold in the cackles! Sorry!)



I'm telling you, NG would throw her head from side to side and nearly go off the side of my lap from the momentum changes. What I didn't capture on video was NG running around the office, while the video finished playing, barking and looking everywhere she could think of for the cat she was sure was making all that racket.

Talk about Cute Overload. That, my dear Poodles, is what you call completely snorgable behavior!

Smooches,

The New Girl

I am no longer the only woman in my office. Sparky brought the new girl in on Monday. The guys in the office love her already...sometimes it's like I'm not even here. And as if that wasn't bad enough, The New Girl is so much cuter than me it's not even funny!

She's sweet.

She's funny.

She has beautiful brown eyes.

She has legs that go on for days.

She makes everyone laugh.

She sleeps a lot.

She chews on socks.

She potties on the carpet once in awhile.

She chews on power cords.

And I'm pretty sure she would drink from the toilet if you gave her the chance.

---------------------

Poodles, meet The New Girl. NG for short.

I told you she was cute...

....and leggy....

....and that she sleeps a lot....

....and those eyes!

--------------------------

I don't stand a chance.

Cute Break!

I am a huge Cute Overload fan. Huge.

Once again, they have come through in their quest to nearly kill me with cuteness. This one I had to share...c'mon folks, the thing is smiling with joy!!!!

Enjoy!





Oh, and to the blog/PETA/Earth Day Police, I am by no means advocating owning exotic animals as pets...but if this chick already has one, I'm sure going to squee with joy while she tickles it.

Snorgs!
