Raffe-aganza!
My photo of my ward. She can go the fuck home tomorrow.
She really is a nice kid, pretty kid and a ghost just like Kylee is. You turn around and it's just there staring at you. Totally silent, looking all desireable.
Same time.... I wonder if the parents had the forsight to NOT name the animal Juno. In my house her name is Jun-NO!!! She doesnt get it, thinks I'm just excited to say her name and taking a creative interpretation of it. I'd mention that, but I'm on strict punishment if I so much as mention the dog being.... almost completely untrained. Mr. Morgan is giving me a hard time for being hard on her, but I'm really not. Hitting is hard on her, and I don't hit. Is she going to hear me freaking out..... naturally. No one in this house gets a pass from that. She simply has no social graces, she lives as a lone dog in a confined apartment and I'm told she lives almost all day on a balcony. I'd probably shit myself too to come to a free range home with other dogs and twice a day walks, so I am bummed she's going home to boredom. Mr. Morgan took her and Kylee to a fair at the park today, she was ramped that so many people were in one spot staring and wanting to pet her. Kylee got more attention, as it was a Civil War fair and I guess our daughter looks like the poster child for one of the most terrible events in all history. Some people like negros after all. We felt really out of place, because in walking up, we see all these Confederate flags and knew we were not in Kansas and that reinacting it was pretty creepy. Wasn't the first run good enough? Anyway, there were pretzels and pina coladas to... I guess celebrate racism and slavery. We had some of both (not the racism or slavery, just the eats), but we didn't cheer.
She brought in a dead bird about a half hour ago. I am SO unable to ever be barefoot in this house. I flipped and made Mr. Morgan get it. Who really didn't want to. It was gutted and all over my hallway. I screamed that I did the neck tick removal, his turn was bird duty and it was not up for debate.
Now to the Raffes. I have too many to do this every day. It would take a year or more. Seriously. So.
#5, 6 and 7 - Can zoom. On the left is Joey. He came from Art Dogs of Grace. The owner goes to Africa often to hoard these items. He was damaged so I got him for a great price. Center is Gortusk. He's down because of a broken leg. On the mend, he's hand carved from Guatemala, removal tail since his injury. To the right is Sir Stands a Lot. He doesn't have a location other than a yellow dot on his bottom and so far.... he isn't talking.
#8 - Mary and Larry - Awesome tapestry piece.
#9 - Sarah and Michael. Also damaged via dog. Next to a raffe candle to help make up for it.
#10 - RaffeFam. Dad looking at Mom looking at Weeone, who is looking... at clouds I guess. Most excellent.
#11 - Cofay Raffe - What can I say, he likes his java.
#12 - The Shrews. These two don't like eachother at ALL. One is making a lean towards bitching and clearly the other one has already formed a plan to kill her.
#13 - Syrup. I know he looks lynched.... but that's just how he chills.
#14 - Comedy Raffe. He thinks everything is funny, we think he's not all together.
#15 - Legs. Lastly for this entry, I don't even know who this giraffe is. He's been laying down, hooves up for a long time collecting dust like it's a hobby.
So that's all for today!

Poor JuNO! I treated a dog like that once, and it's no way for a dog to live (on a patio). You must ahve been heaven to her, and now she has to wake up.
Love all the raffes and there's plenty I don't recognize.
living on a balcony all day :(
sad.
Yeah, pretty sad. She goes to the dog park once a week. /ahem! Not my dog, not my problem, but kind of a drag. She'll be staying with us again come August. Not a bad girl, just threw off our whole routine a bit.
