Allow Me To Introduce Myself (Part 2)

I must have stepped away from the computer for too long. Because 1) I have no idea what date it is. I rely too much entirely on the computer to tell me what date and time it is. And 2) Blogger decided to update its template for composing posts. Which is driving me bat shit crazy. But then again, I manage to now function an entire day on two hours of total sleep, so pretty much anything drives me bat shit crazy. ;-)


What I am grateful for is that the baby is not driving the dogs bat shit crazy. Even when he's proudly showing off just how awesome his lungs work. They have adjusted to the baby's presence completely. . . and Bruno's definition of "completely" is that the baby doesn't exist. No sirree! No baby here! Sure, I may be holding something small and smelly in my arms, but it doesn't exist! La la la! No baby here!

It only took Bruno about three weeks to, on his own, take one tiny sniff of the baby. And then he ran. I'm waiting to see just how long it's going to take for the next sniff.


Carmela thinks the baby is alright.  She does, however, have a few complaints.




"He's kind of smelly. Especially his bottom half.  
He reeks like 50% of the time. 
What gives?"







"And before he starts to really stink, 
he makes the weirdest faces.
See?"






"And how come he always acts drunk?
He has no coordination whatsoever."






"Are you sure he's not getting into
your liquor cabinet when you're
not looking?"






"And how come he has so little fur?
It seems to be only concentrated on the top of his head.
Is he some kind of new weird-haired breed?"








"Alright, maybe there's one good thing about him. . .
he always has cozy blankets wherever he goes.
I guess he's alright."








"But don't tell anyone I said that!"

Run, Weekday, Run!

I'm hoping this week flies by super fast . . .




I'm looking forward to the holiday weekend.  A day to sleep in is definitely a day to relish!  I suppose I should celebrate that I'm am halfway through the week.  But I can't help to wanting to kick Thursday out of the way. . .




Friday will be here before I know it!  And on Friday, I get to see Flight of The Conchords live.  I just hope my baby bump will also appreciate the music.  :)


What are you guys looking forward to this weekend?

What Do You Do?

What do you do when everyone around you is driving your nuts-o? 


Do you close your ears and refuse to succumb to the madness?




"Not listening!"











Or do you smile and pretend to listen?



"I'm in my happy place!
HAPPY PLACE! HAPPY PLACE!"






So which is it?  :)

Readjust

"Good Lord, that tongue does not do
any justice to your face," observes Carmela.





"It's, like, always sticking out!"





"You need a face readjustment...
There, that looks better!"




"What just happened??
I had a scary dream where
Carmela kept calling me a buttface!"

Green With. . . Embarrassment!

The Canine Mafiosos are green this St. Patrick's Day. They're green with embarrassment that it! On my recent shopping trip to Target, I discovered the $1 section had lots of St. Patrick's Day props. So, naturally, I grabbed what I could in order to deliver an awesome St. Patrick's Day post for you readers.

But you see, somehow Bruno got wind of my plans. I don't know how he did it, but he managed to scheduled himself a trip to San Francisco under the protective arms of his grandfather on the day I planned to do this photo shoot. Rats!


So I did what I could do...tortured the rest of the dogs. Only, as usual, Carmela was *not* having it. I'm used to it!






"Are you sure this hat makes me
look handsome?" asks Gino.








Yes, you look extraordinarily handsome. Now, get back on that blanket and lay down so I can get my shot!







"Um. . . is Bruno underneath
the hat?" asks Carmela.






"This is taking way too damn long.
More cookies. NOW!" demands Vinnie.

"Bruno? Are you under there,
meat head?" asks Carmela.







"I don't think this hat is for me," says Gino.
"I really need something that will bring
out the structure in my face."






Your face is flat, for Godsake's! YOU LOOK FINE. Now stop blocking Carmela and lay your pug butt down on that blanket so we can finish!




FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Where did Gino go??





"He said something about
a wardrobe change, " informs Carmela.









"There!
That's better!
Now I'm smokin'!" exclaims Gino.








Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Chihuahua Torture

Carmela and I sometimes don't get along. I don't know if it's a female thing, but we go can let days pass where we ignore each other. She's very attached to Ryan, so I'm sure she figures as long as she has him around, who needs me?

When I do notice her ignoring me, I bust out my camera. I like to pester her like that.

She especially hates it when I bring the lens to close to her. I suppose I could work in counter-conditioning her to not hate the lens, but you know what, it's too damn funny to do so.

First, she gives me a little lip-check warning.




"I've got teeth underneath these lips and
I will use 'em!"




Her little lip curls mean nothing to me, so she'll then resort to peace tactics.




"I'm asking you nicely to
STEP AWAY!"




But, being the little bi*#@ that she is, peaceful tactics don't last long with her. She quickly resorts back to threatening my jugular.


"I swear on my life...
I will slit your throat.
BACK OFF."




But see, she's a smart cookie. That's what I admire about her. In the true mafioso fashion, she realizes that the quickest way to elicit fear in your enemy is to hit 'em where it hurts.



"Step away from me and I won't
fart on your beloved Pug's head.
I'll do it, dammit!"

ARG! &#^$%&@*!(

Readers, I have some news. But I can't share just yet. I know, I know...I'm such a tease.

It will all make sense once I finally spill my guts why The Canine Mafioso blog has been a tad bit skimpy lately on material. Hang in there!!

I was about to post a montage of Bruno being silly in the spring shots...until I realized that out of the 45 shots I took, Carmela is either blocking half the space or she's somewhere in the shot being a pest. Figures!




So therefore, I hereby blame Carmela for ruining this week's post. What should her punishment be?

Chihuahua Killing Machine

Carmela showed me this week that she has a penchant for eviscerating stuffed animals. She normally just likes to fetch them, but this week, she went to town performing a disembowelment surgery. It must the rain; it's been raining non-stop over in our neck of the woods and The Mafiosos are stir crazy.



"Whatchoo call me?
A 'pipsqueak'?
DIE!"





"I'm gonna get every last piece
of guts you have out.
That's a promise!"







"Unlike the stinky boys,
I have a snout I can use to
make the job easier!"






"Wait! Give it back!
I'm not done yet!"





"Are you deaf?!"





"He's still wearing a silly hat!
I have to chew his hat off!"





"I have an alibi.
And I'd like my lawyer, please."





And a little something for the Bruno fans...

This is what he looks like after a brave attempt to take The Mafiosos out during a break in the rain:




Quit proud of himself, isn't he? He seems to think the mud makes his eyes brighter, and as my friend Kelly noted, his curls much bouncier! Silly Bruno.

Secret Agent Chi

Bruno? Have you seen Carmela anywhere? I can't seem to find her. . .



"Seriously? You can't see
that she's. . ." begins Bruno.

"BRUNO! Do I need to remind you what
happened to the last dog who
ratted me out?" threatens Carmela.




"He was never heard from again!!
Get my drift, meathead?"






:stress yawn:





"Uh, no Ma. . . I haven't seen her.
But if I run into her, I'll tell
her that you're looking for her."

A New Year!

I think Carmela might have found my bottle of New Year's Eve Cristal and helped herself...



:::Hiccup!:::
"That bubbly was good!"






"Tee hee!"






But she paid the price for imbibing...



"Will someone quit spinning the room?!"





I think it's a safe bet she'll be sleeping until next year. ;-)

Holiday Break!

Readers, The Mafiosos would like to inform you that they will back in 2010. And with a bang. They will not let you down.

They have asked me to provide you with another "WTH?!" moment for this week's adventure.
Please feel free to caption. . .

Chihuahua Confessions

Carmela has a confession she is prepared to make. Apparently, she is obsessed with shoes. Completely, utterly obsessed. She can 't stop buying them! She can't walk by a store without going inside to see if there are any cute pairs in her size. Just last week, I bought . . .

Um, I mean, *SHE* bought four new pairs. She has to be stopped. So the first step is for her to admit there's a problem.



"I don't have a problem!
The only problem I see is
not enough closet space!"






"You really can't blame me for buying these.
They are completely delicious!
I had to get them."






"What?
These totally call out to
my wild, animal side!"







"And every gal needs a pair of
bedroom stripper shoes for her man."







WAIT, WHAT?! You have a man?





"Don't ask questions you aren't
prepared for.
Here, let me distract you."






"I also own lots of fabulous flats!"






"Yeah, these here would be
your tasteless shoes.
I don't wear stuff like this.
I'm a lady."






"Seriously. I didn't buy these."





"I'm more into girly shoes."







"Here's my newest pair!"





"I look FAB-UUUU-LESS!"
