What a gloomy Monday. It's bad enough it's a Monday - we don't need the added cruelty of bad weather. I want my money back!
Over the weekend we had the TCM team Victory Party at Gasthof's. Saturday night at Gasthof during the last weekend of Oktoberfest made for a fun and interesting evening. We were in the basement and had our half of the room to ourselves for a couple hours before things started really cooking. Everyone shared their stories from the marathon and enjoyed the adult beverage of their choice.
While we were eating and socializing we were watching a slide show that Julie had put together with photos from the season and from race day. 900 pictures in all, and she had already deleted quite a few! There is one of me from the Pasta Party that will definitely be posted in the next day or two, so keep you eyes open for that.
Hey, check this out. I think I found my Halloween costume.
Friends of ours got a new puppy on Friday and we went to visit them Sunday. Jen and Kyle bought a yellow lab and named him "Buddy". He's all of 7 weeks old and is the cutest little guy. Gotta love puppy breath and their sharp little teeth. It's their first dog so we gave them some tips on how to get him to stop biting. Tough love, baby, tough love. Julie was of course in heaven playing with him and holding him, teasing him and playing tug with the rope we bought for him. I definitely see some dog sitting in the future.
The breeder they got Buddy from also raises championship dogs. He told them that he can alter the temperature of the sire's sperm and that will help determine the sex of the puppies. If he lowers the sperm temp the litter will have more females which generally are more in demand than the male dogs. Who knew? My only question is - how do you lower the temp? Have him sit in a bucket of ice cubes? Gives new meaning to "Love on the Rocks".
18 days to Bruce!
It takes extreme concentration, but I'm getting there.
Everyone have a great week!
