so cute it hurts!

Boop!

I've decided not to post anything legitimate ever again outside of B-Team puppy updates. I'm not sure where I was when the A-Team was born, but my life is definitely more complete now that Puppy Cam is in it.

I feel like opening a Twitter account to tweet minute-by-minute about the puppies...but I think "Puppies are eating!" and "Puppies are sleeping!!" would get sorta repetitive after a while.

I bet you're wondering what could be so exciting about watching 5 squirmy little animals that can't even walk, well, just watch for 15 seconds and I promise you'll be hooked! A NY Times article from last week put it best: I was skeptical. After all, how interesting can a bunch of sleeping puppies be? But I kept watching. They were just so freaking cute, huddled together for warmth, tiny bodies breathing while dreaming their puppy dreams. There’s something reassuring about seeing all five little puppies cuddled against Kika (momma Shiba Inu).

the most productive i've been in months

I haven't been posting much lately because I've been spending every waking moment watching Puppy Cam. I'm only half serious about that (I've had to take a few breaks to y'know, shower or whatever).

I have a feeling that if Tater Tot were an actual person he would be insanely annoying...but as it is, Tater is an adorable little ball of fluff so he RULES.

seriously lacking beauty sleep

I generally can sleep pretty much anywhere (except in a car, for some reason) but the past few years I've gone through sporadic phases of very erratic sleep. I'll get a full 8 hours one night, but for the next three days won't be able to manage more than a cat nap.

I think perhaps I blogged about this back in 2008 when it was happening then? I thought I was going crazy. I'm generally a very logical and sane person, but in this instance I really felt like I was losing my mind. I remember having a breakdown on the 4th or 5th sleepless night, crying so hard because all I wanted to do was sleep...but couldn't.

After self-diagnosing insomnia, I thought I should finally seek medical intervention and when I presented my case to my doctor he suggested I "get more exercise". Really? That's your solution? I mean, I didn't go to medical school or anything, but I don't think going to the gym is going to solve sleep deprivation.


"May cause drowsiness...use caution when operating a car or dangerous machinery." Ok, so, running on a treadmill isn't the same game as operating a car, but it's definitely in the same ballpark...and I'm DROWSY all. the. time. I don't think physical exertion is the answer, unfortunately I have yet to really find the answer other than waiting it out.



Maybe I should start going to testicular cancer support groups? Meh, I don't want to end up punching myself in the neck at 3AM in the parking lot of some shady bar.

because i miss college

For the record, the speaker at my commencement was the head of "one of the most innovative zoos in the world," whatever THAT means.

Oh wait, schnap, I found a copy of my graduation program and it has some info about the dude...apparently he transformed the Atlanta Zoo from being one of the ten worst ranked zoos in the U.S. to one of the best. And it also is one of only three zoos in America that has Giant Pandas. Exciting, I know.

Anyway, I think James Franco would have rocked it better.

"So, what do we now? What do we, what do WE do now? We have all this knowledge, and we know...everything. What's there left to do? Go out...and make babies. Thank you."
