celebs

i think everybody knows what a celebrity freak i am. well, i just found out that ryan gosling was spotted walking around west village. this gets me so mad b/c knowing that i could have ran into him somewhere on the streets makes me crazy. i love this guy.



then, i find out that brad pitt and his kids have been all around central park since last friday. why can't i be at the right place at the right time. i think jonah could be really good friends w/ maddox, pax, zahara or shiloh. :)

it's not over

i thought it was all over but it's not. i got a call the other day asking if i wanted to petsit bart and victor again in sept. after thinking about things, i decided to do it. i just can't pass up the money that i'll get for taking care of these 2 dogs for 5 days. i think w/ the money that i earn from all the petsitting, i'm gonna get a new tattoo.



after this, it's really over.

pimples

i have this huge zit underneath my left nostril. it's one of those zits that you can't pop b/c it's so huge and there's no hole to squeeze out the nasty shit. the more you try to pop it, the bigger it gets. so i'm trying not to touch or squeeze at it but it's so hard. i know it's gonna take forever for this thing to go away.

i'm so self conscious. i feel like everybody is looking at my zit. this sucks!

here's dakota

dakota is the last dog i'll be petsitting and walking. next week is my last week of dog walking. i have to say that i'll be relieved once it's all over.

dakota is the cutest and most affectionate pugs you'll ever meet. she always greets everybody w/ a smile and w/ so much excitement. so sweet and her little bark is so cute. i just love her to death. just look at that face.



it's so sad, you could tell that dakota just wants to be close to sophie but sophie just growls whenever dakota gets close to her. she's not even doing anything. she just wants to be wherever sophie is but sophie won't have it.

bart

bart and victor are going home today. thank God. i have to say that they were much more work than i thought. well, i should say that bart has been the most work. he's almost 10 years old and he has sooooo many problems, poor thing. just to name a few:

1. he has back problems so he walks super slow. if you tug him even a little, it'll put him out for 2 wks. so i had to carry him many times.

2. he has allergies so he's taking lots of medication.

3. he has a slight case of lyme disease.

4. he has a drinking problem so we couldn't leave water down.

for the first 5 days, he's been vomiting all over the apt. luckily, he was vomiting only at night after jonah went down. it was pretty disgusting. after no relief for bart, i had to take him to the vet to be hospitalized for 3 days to find out what the problem was.



the vet found out that it was one of the meds he was taking for lyme disease that was causing the vomiting. so they had to add another medication to help w/ the vomiting which totally works. after i brought him home, he hasn't thrown up at all. thank goodness. so now he's on 6 different meds. poor little guy.

my 2nd pregnancy

so far, this pregnancy has not been as fun as when i was pregnant w/ jonah. i'm 7 1/2 mnths now and i can't wait for this to be over. a lot of things that are going on in my body, never happened to me on my 1st pregnancy. here are some things that are going on:

1. i have a lot of pressure down there. i feel like the baby is gonna pop out already. this started awhile ago.

2. i have this huge nasty varicose vein on my upper leg and it looks so disgusting. i heard that this happens to pregnant women but i didn't think i would get one esp since i didn't have any on my 1st. the dr said that it should go away after i have the baby. i hope so.

3. i could feel the baby kicking like crazy and it's pretty painful sometimes. this one is very active.

4. i started feeling contractions a lot sooner than last time.

5. i'm getting a lot more backaches and i feel more tired. it's probably b/c i'm tending to jonah.

6. my arms and legs fall asleep during the night which wakes me up.

7. my feet hurt more this time around.

there's more stuff that's going on but i won't list them out here. it's too graphic and will probably gross you guys out.

let the madness begin

this is the best picture i could get w/ all the animals in one shot.



this morning was pretty hectic. tim had to go into work early but thankfully he was able to walk sophie and lily for me. it's been raining today, which means that i had to wipe down all the dogs when they came back.

tim is not that patient w/ some dogs so i knew that it wouldn't be good if he walked bart. so he stayed w/ jonah while i walked him which took 20 min.

when i got back, tim rushed to work while i got jonah ready to take w/ me to walk victor. luckily, victor went really fast and we got back in.

afterwards, i had to feed all the kids. everybody has to be fed separately b/c they would all try to steal each others food. then, i was finally done. such an ordeal. i didn't realize how much work it was gonna be. hopefully, it'll be easier as the days go by.

meet bart and victor

they came over last night and so far so good. the only part that's going to suck is that i have to walk them separately b/c bart is much older and much slower. it'll be hard for me to wake up earlier in the morning to walk them before tim goes to work.

oh yeah and they kinda stink b/c when they drink water they get water all in their beards so i have to wipe them down constantly.



i think jonah loves having all these dogs in the apt. i hope jonah loves dogs when he grows up. just like lily, she been running after victor and bart.

lily

here's the pommie that i petsat this week. overall, she was a very good dog. i'll be sad to take her home today.



jonah tortured her a little bit and chased her around the apt a few times but she always kept her ground and held strong.



tim is not a big dog-lover like me so when he said that he wouldn't mind petsitting lily again, i was shocked. he even went as far to say that she was cute. SHOCKING!

my new fav reality show

i just watched an episode of fashionista diaries on soapnet. i am hooked.

being in nyc, i've always been nervous in getting an assistant job here. i'd be scared if i ended up having a mean boss and what if they gave me something that i couldn't do. would i be able to handle the pressure?

well, after watching the first episode, i think i wouldn't be able to handle it. if i had to deal w/ the attitudes that i saw tonight, i think i would go home crying everyday.

update on other shows:
1. i hated the two coreys show. i couldn't even get past 10 min. it was so boring and not interesting. so that's off my list.
2. scott baio show is ok. it's not that great but definitely more interesting than the 2 coreys. i'll keep watching for now.
3. watched l.a. ink tonight and i loved it. kat von d rocks and so do the other artists that she hired. i so want to get tattooed by one of them. later miami ink.
4. i'm totally hooked on rock of love. all i have to say is that i'm soooo glad that rodeo is GONE!

dogs dogs dogs

it's gonna be a busy august. maybe it's the hot, humid weather in nyc but everybody seems to be going on vacation this month.

starting monday, i'll be petsitting a little pomeranian, lily for 5 days. so next week, we'll have 3 animals in the apt.

then, next thursday, i'm petsitting 2 scottish terriers, bart and victor for 11 days. including sophie and hippy, that'll make 5 animals in our small 1 bedroom apt.

then, on the 25th, i'm petsitting the cutest pug ever, dakota. she is so friendly and so affectionate. i just love her.

it's gonna be a crazy month but i'm looking forward to having all these dogs in the apt. it should be fun. i'll post pics later.
