Gotta Go, Gotta Go, Gotta Go Right Now

Oh mama, there is no need to be depressed!  LETS GO OUTSIDE

I know that things have been really hard lately, and that you're not feeling up to par.  And that you've been working too damn much.  And that you aren't super healthy.  And that you feel kind of crappy all of the time.  But wait, I've got an idea - LETS GO FOR A WALK

Some days just sitting around in your jammies is all you can muster.  I understand, really I do.  We all have times when life kicks us in the behind (fuzzy or otherwise), and we want to hide from the world.  But you know what I like to do when that happens to me?  That's right - GO FOR A WALK.

You are an awesome mama.  I couldn't ask for anything more.  And at this point I have you reasonably well trained.  The kitties love ya, and boy do I love ya.  We all miss dad, and we all think you're the cats meow (especially the kitties).  You can be depressed later - get out of those jammies and LETS GO FOR A WALK

Love,
Bogart

Sunny in Philadelphia

It's been a little warm here in Philly these days... even for The Most Interesting Dog in the World.

But that doesn't stop me from taking long evening walkies with mama, even if I'm tired or thirsty.

Definitely a little thirsty at this point in the walkie, it's a good thing that mama brings along a tasty beverage for me.

Liquid goes in... liquid comes out.

 

Exploration is necessary, all of the new smells are FASCINATING.

What?  Exactly why do you need me right now mama?  There are some brand new smells over here.

Oh crap.  Does that mean modeling?  Damn.

Alright.  Modeling.  Majestic pose.

Majestic thirsty pose.

Oh this stinks.  I'm not in the mood for modeling.

Can you tell that I'm just not feeling it today?  I've got the "just take my damn picture" look in my eyes.

It's not that simple to bust out majestic posing on a daily basis.  It's not something that I can completely control.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

And sometimes there are just far more interesting things than your mama trying to take pictures of you.

Many times they are behind me.  Mama, what do I have to do to get off of this posing rock and check it out?

BAM!  Posing Perfection.  That'll work, right?

I think I've done my best work for the day.  My work here is done.

Stay thirsty, my friends.

Love,

Bogart

Schuylkill Stickwork

Oh mighty Schuylkill River... you try to steal my fantastic sticks, but I cannot let this happen.

I shall rescue this one from your water-y clutches...

And drag it back safely to shore...

Into as much mud as possible...

OH YEAH.  I have saved this stick from a life of wandering along the currents, and gotten myself as muddy as possible.  WIN WIN

Love,

Bogart
