LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON

Occasionally, about once every 6 months,
this wonderful aroma is in the air at our house.
I call it "e de Lillybug"
or "e de Carrleighgirl"
and it just drives me crazy -
makes me do stoopid things
like keep Mom up
with my arrroooing all night long.

If you have followed our blog since the beginning,
you may remember my stint
as Piper Villa
and how so many of my buddies
came to my rescue.

It seems I have lost some of my
privileges once again.

No longer am I allowed to
just lie around and chew on
my favorite bone.

I've had to take a leave of absence
from my job as snoopervisor.

Dad says we guys need to stick together,
but he's not letting me check the weather
or help him on the computer.

I can't even lay on top of my crate
and watch over the back yard -
what if squirrels attack -
who will sound the alarm?

I am INCARCERATED again!!
and I hate it.
Mom says it's one of the longest weeks
of the year -
she sure has that right!

I only hope my sons
can learn from my experiences.

XOXO
Piper Villa
(oh! wait - help me figure out a new disguise -
I think Mom is on to this one)

PS - please don't tell Candy about this.
Her Mom just said I could go on a date with her.
