It’s a Small World After All, Even Smaller After This Guy Does Some Target Practice.
Remember Carey McWilliams? Well, um, he’s a grad from GDB! Now there’s someone I don’t want to piss off at an alumni convention. He might shoot me!
Strange Dreams are Made of Trixie.
You can tell I spend a lot of time thinking about Trixie. Why? She’s in my dreams! She’s in a lot of my dreams in very ordinary ways, but there were two that were especially weird. I had one dream that it was one of those times that Steve and I were off to visit …
Bits of Trixie goodness I forgot about.
I knew I was forgetting some things about Trixie that I wanted to say. So here are the things I forgot. I have now discovered she likes squirrels. They tempt her whenever we walk through the university campus. Always something new. When we’re playing, sometimes she pins my head down and sniffs my ear. I …
More Trixie goodness!
I think it’s time for an update on the Trixter, along with some things I’ve noticed because of her. Because of her, I end up spending considerably more time loitering around the outside of the apartment building. I’m not really loitering, I’m waiting for her to do her duty.

So How’s Trixie Doing Anyway?
I know there are some people who come to the blog for Trixie updates. I’ve been emailed by a few of them asking for updates on how Trixie is doing. So here’s the first of a few Trixie-related posts. I think my knee is finally completely healed. I think Trixie is thrilled to be able …
White Cane for a Black Dog
Um, wow. Trixie is making me famous. One thing that the school in San Rafael does is send press releases to local media about people coming home with their new woofs. I guess it caught the attention of the Guelph Tribune, so they asked me if they could get a photo and do a little …
Trixie’s Famous, Why Leave Babs in the Shadows?
I figured since Trixie could be famous, Babs at least deserves her moment in the sun. So I dug up a picture of her and added it to her announcement post. So now you can know what both pups look like and compare. Hopefully I’ll have something of greater substance to say later.
