Why I am tired and late for work this week

I was Jewish guilted into dogsitting for my mom's dog, Polo (seen on the right). While he looks so adorable, don't be fooled! He is a neurotic, high maintenance Bischon who does not like to sleep or just chill out. I took him to the park the other day where I found an empty, fenced in baseball field and let him run loose to try to tire him out! As you will see from the pic on the right, he chose to run the bases in the red clay sand (he could have a tight race against Jose Reyes) instead of the grass, and I had to give him a half bath to make his red legs go back to white.

Also beware that this dog is a LIAR. He stands at the bottom of the staircase and won't go up the stairs if you are up there. He cries and barks and will only go upstairs if you carry him up halfway! When coming home from work the past 2 days, Polo has been nowhere in sight because HE IS UPSTAIRS!! We caught him red handed- er, red legged- in the loft!

Polo heads back home on Sunday, then peace and happiness and rest can be restored in the Murphy household.

What is up with the dog's eyes?
