TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing Around (Page 11)

It took me by surprise as well (like most holiday, honestly).  But this one in particular.  I think it's one of those "floating" days and they picked presidents day as one (the day after thanksgiving is the other.

Damn,

So jealous.  I need to dust my MTB off.  We had a short lived MTB race series here in Vegas but it ran into problems.

MTBing is the phunest... 

Dropped another 1k on the dogs.  Got their teeth cleaned and found out we needed several extractions, including a molar on each dog.  That's what they said happens when they don't brush.

Seriously, when did brushing dog's teeth become part of care?  I NEVER did, or heard of that growing up.

As you may or may not know, Shi Tzus have an massive under-bit already.  Well they lost their top front teeth so now they look like and old man without their dentures and make the under-bite even MORE noticeable.  Guess I need to get used to it.

Duke chews so much, so often, that I've never, ever cleaned his teeth - and I get complimented on how clean they are... but now his canines are flat! I think when he's old, he'll be on a wet-food-only diet.

Growing up our dog also had an underbite (hilarious!) and the vet ALWAYS recommended brushing his teeth. I remember sitting in the vets office with my mom watching a video on how to brush a dogs teeth. We laughed out lout at it. We never did, of course, but this was in the 80s and they were telling us that back then. As he got older his teeth fell out and he had to be fed soft food only. It was kinda sad

My dog has had his teeth cleaned 3x in his almost 10 years - I'm hoping that will prevent any extractions or major issues down the road...

We felt so sad for our little guy.  He was kind of "moaning" all night.  Broke our heart.  Even with the prescribed pain meds.  We have some older ones we never used up after another incident.  Obviously being careful to not overdose, I may slip him another half dose to help him sleep.

Ha! I used to work at SchmApplebees. I do not set foot in there unless the kiddo gets to pick (and we are not near an Outback - Outback is #1 choice FOR LIFE for him). I still have bad dreams about waiting tables, to this day. I dream about people placing specific food and drink orders, it's creepy.

Man, the wife loves Valentines day so got up early to give me a card and some packages of Valentine's candy...  Of course we are going out for a nice dinner (on SUNDAY, though).

Now I feel I need to reciprocate.  So a card of course.  But we don't need more candy.  I think something more fun could be a home made cake or something from a local Bundt cake store that makes a KILLER cake...  I'm just tired of having treats and snacks in the house   

But something about Valentines steamed asparagus misses the mark.

last year for v-day i made my husband bacon roses.  just roll up bacon, bake it like that, stick it on a skewer, BAM!  gave him a vase full

I had roses, cupcakes, my favourite snack food (pretzels) and a card delivered to my desk at lunch.  YAY!  

Tonight is going out to a new sushi place that isn't even open yet, but Tony knows a guy who knows another guy and got us in to their super secret dinner tonight.   

My wife and I have done soemthing every night this week together, all things were her choice (except for one) so tonight, we will actually just chill at the house since the kiddos are gone. Tomorrow night I am taking the whole family to see the new Lego movie!  I am actually looking forward to it!

what the heck is "favourite?"

Proper spelling  

potatoE

So I went with a card and I will make home made devil's food cupcakes decorated with pink icing and heart shaped red-hots...

The whole thing makes me shudder, but it's the "rules".

My family and I went to see the Lego movie this weekend. It was pretty funny and my kids loved it. Batman was hilarious!
