Hilarious

I'm home sick (just a bad case of the flu :-( ) and while sitting here my dog Boni (I adopted a second dog, I'll post about it some other time) was lying somewhere in the living room. An innocent spider was crawling on the floor in her direction. At a certain point the spider reached her. She looked at it, tried to smell it and squashed it, probably by mistake. Since that moment that poor spider has been lying dead on the floor. The hilarious part of it is that it turns out that Boni is scared of spiders. Since she squashed the poor spider she has a scared look in her eyes. She moved away from where she was lying to various places in the living room a few times. She lies down trying to minimize the space she's occupying. The first thing she does in every place she chooses is to look in the spider's direction. If she sees it she gets up and looks for a new place. Until now she moved about 6-7 times: From a little bit away from the spider (her first move), to trying to hide under my computer desk (no space there), to the other side of the living room. The spot she's currently in is behind Schori (my other dog) so that Schori is blocking her view of the spider. Time to go pick up the spider from the floor.
A dog scared of spiders ... LOL :-)

countdown

The clock has started ticking ...
I just read an email that was sent from the kennel in south Florida. Schori was shipped out an hour and half ago. After 37 hours he'll land here (given that there aren't any problems en route). and I will be taking him in 39 hours from now.

I just hope I'll remember to breath between now and then ...
