  1. Dog Days

    dog days

    It was hardly a dog day in terms of heat (or, in this case, lack of it), but I saw a LOT of dogs today. This one’s a real cutie. [View On Black]

    At noon today I had a meeting with a dog owner at one of the coffee shops in my neighbourhood (I didn’t take Moose’s picture, though! Shame on me!), and afterwards I took us all for a car ride and the poor dog got sick in the backseat. Moose’s owner was very apologetic, but seeing as I live with a chronic vomiter named Beano, cleaning up animal regurgitation is par for the course at the House of Fielding. At least I’ve got detergents for it — and I don’t usually sit in the back seat! (Ewwww….)

    As for the rest of Saturday, I took a rain check on social activities in order to work on some terribly geeky projects such as updating the firmware in my camera and building a client website. And, if I have any energy left over, I will continue editing photographs. I have a photography-related meeting tomorrow, so I really should do something a little escapist before then so my weekend resembles more of a weekend than a weekday.

    (Aside: whoever coined the phrase “working like a dog” obviously hasn’t been to a dog park lately. Or my neighbourhood.)

    It occurred to me today that I wasn’t even supposed to be in Toronto this weekend, I was due elsewhere (see the “Where” section, if you have the password), but that trip has been postponed to a future date to be determined. Awww… I was really looking forward to it, but the anticipation will build again once I have a new announced date to work with. That’s about all I can say at this point, but I guarantee there will be lots of photos!
