The CB Adventure

Well today has been pretty boring so far. I need an adventure! My walks are fun and all, but I hate that darn leash. As soon as I feel like I'm going somewhere, I get jerked back because I don't have anymore lead on the leash! It's a cruel game really. It's times like these when I remember my past adventures of freedom. Like the time I got out of the backyard and wound up in Carolina Beach. That was a good time! The things I saw, the trees I peed on, and the people I met...I had a blasty! The key to that adventure was the sweet escape I made. At the time I was hanging out with my home-girl Norma Jean at her daddy's house. She was not interested in joining me for some reason, but it was her loss. I found an opening in the fence and wiggled my way through. I was so amazed that I made it out, that I just stood there for a good 5 minutes in awe. I couldn't believe how easy it was! Then a squirrel caught my eye and it was on. I ran through the field behind the house and smelled so many new scents that intrigued me. It was awesome!!! Then I decided to see what all was out there for me to explore. I walked a ways down the street marking my new territory like I owned the block. I was so excited about the sites and sounds that I didn't realize how far I had walked. By this time it was pretty dark and I had no idea where I was. "Man, my mom is going to be pissed" was the only thought going through my head at this point. I started to get pretty scared to be quite honest. I'm all about a good adventure, but where was I going to sleep? Who was going to feed me? "Damn, maybe this was a bad idea" I thought. I was so lost. Lucky for me someone picked me up and gave me a ride. I don't think they liked me too much though because next thing I knew I was being kicked out of the car. My poor tummy had some gnarly road rash all over it. I don't know what I did wrong. It could have been the cobra-strike....Anyway, I found myself walking around a Food Lion parking lot all the way in Carolina Beach! That's like 15-20 minutes from Norma Jean's house! Thankfully, a good samaritan scooped me up and dropped me off at a vet, and before I knew it my mom and Norma's daddy were there to pick me up. I was so happy to see them! But I knew I was in deep trouble. I knew that my days of adventure were over. But I dream about CB every now and then when I get the itch for fun!! Well, looks like it's nap time for me folks!

Let Me Introduce Myself

While I need no introductions, I figured I would fill you humans in on a few things about me. First off, I am a 3 year old boston terrier. I pretty much rock in all areas of my life. My mom, Dara, may not think that I listen very well sometimes, but little does she know that I do. I just play like I don't listen. That's how I keep her under my thumb. My daily activities include sleeping, chewing on rawhides, digging through my mom's laundry, and people watching through the living room window. Cobra-striking is how I often greet new people so watch out if you visit. Well, gotta jet about to snoop and poop through the neighborhood!

Check you later,
