a person in 1,563 photos maddy Vin came over to hang on Monday and I showed him the Small Spells Tarot book I'd recently gotten. Played guitar. Winter loop over and over. ...like this. Napped on the couch with this dum dum. Meredith came over for a hang on Sunday. We were supposed to go to Sarah's birthday party on Saturay, but it was cancelled when her friend Marc Spitz died suddenly. (RIP, Mark! <3) Sleepy teef! On Monday we headed back to New York The floor was littered with bodies and blood before I'd even finished breakfast. I let Maddy out onto the back porch so she could get to work on her daily quota of lizard murder. Maddy loves my mom. lol Maddy is a seasoned airplane pro at this point ...simultaneously. Maddy likes to sit in multiple laps... Maddy likes to be up where the action is and carried around like a loaf of French bread. These photos are chill but re-readying my text diary from the time, this was a really weird an angsty time for me! Ah, January in New York! Something so cozy about being on the couch while it's snowing out. New Year, New Us! I feel like Maddy is really emblematic of the party's vibes. Happy 2016, everyone! Good night! ...to meet up with Meredith... ...and drop the hound off with her for a few days while I head to DC to visit my family for the holidays. Into her new winter jacket (that has a built in flashing light.) Faaaancy. ...blanket-up with Maddy.... By Tuesday Maddy had graduated from the cone and wanted to resume her long morning walk. Coney's last day of cone! Awwww. I had to run some errands on Thursday so Meredith came over to hang with Coney. ...someone got stitches and a headcone! Left Maddy outside my local sandwich shop... ...and while I was inside the owner's French bulldog nipped Maddy's leg. I didn't notice the skin was broken until I got her back home and she was licking it. Maddy also loves it! <3 Later that evening Gurj came over for a hang. Maddy loves to snuggle in "leg alley." Hahaha. Hanging with homegirl. Sweater weather has arrived for little dogs. Later that night I hung out with Meredith. Morning buddy. I also love Max's serious expression about his seed-podling sword I'd fashioned for him in the yard as he wished me and Maddy farewell. Laughing at Maddy always needing to put her head out the window in the taxi. Headed to the train station on Friday morning. Came home to find this sleepy snoozer with her paws crossed under the blanket. October cuddle buddy. ...and chicken chasing with Maddy. When that fall weather hits it always helps to cuddle your ween! Maddy like to lay on my biomat heating pad with me. Went north out of the city to visit Ellen and Hans at their new home for the first time! Congrats, you two! Meredith was there and was one day away from leaving for her trip to Myanmar to visit Jack . This was part of a two-minute squirrel stand-off. Took Maddy on a walk. Morning ween. We went back to my place for a srrrrious late night party session with the Volcano. ...with my favorite lil buddy. Caught Meredith and Maddy cuddling on the couch on Saturday morning. Came home late to find lil buddy cuddling my book. Later that evening, Gurj came over for a hang... Had the day off on Friday! Played some guitar and read another excellent book on etheric body by Master Choa Kok Sui! Maddy made a wiener bud. Came home to a dachshund very excited to see me. Was trying to take a regal birthday photo of us together... ...but someone kept trying to slip me the baloney tongue! (Ewwww!) Until the she moved off my lap to follow the sunbeam. Read a bit with my lap buddy. Day after my party recovery day! Took Maddy for a long walk. Maddy is excited anytime she gets to spend time with Meredith. LOL. Hey, Bacardi get the party started. Meredith, Jane Anne & David The hardest part of installation was finding room to unfurl all the sections in a Manhattan apt! Morning cuddles with light-bulb head! Explorin! Got home to find this one making her "take me for a walk" face. Haha. Me and my lil campfire buddy! I took a little reading break (ok, nap break) with my lil fuzz-whistle. On Friday night I headed out to Queens with Maddy to meet up! Big meal led to some team-napping! Mer came over Friday night to visit the hound and have dinner. Friday afternoon hangs with Jane Anne! ....gone! I love to watch Maddy sit in the sun and slowly squint her way to sleep. Going, going... This gal likes to come up on the couch to avoid the dreaded VACUUM! ...and we got caught in a DOWNPOUR! The bananas were speckled like Maddy! Gurj came over Monday night for an Empanada party! Took Maddy for a long Saturday walk... Hung out with Jane Anne and couldn't resist snapping a pic of her buddy-napping with Maddy. Awww. Zombie-dog Pants-napper! Meredith came over on Monday night to celebrate the 4th and watch the fireworks. This little lapchicken is nervous because of the booms. Then I got him Volcano-vape blasted out of his mind. Hahah. Happy June 2016! Later that night Kevin came over for a reiki trade. Met up in Tompkins for a summer park hang with Gurj and Jared. Ate outside while this one kept watch! Haha. Headed back to the RV... Enjoys hiking so much! Then it was time to roll out Survey my camp kingdom! (Maddy on the table in her dog bed!) Littlest co-pilot. Such exploring! The next morning, I packed up camp and did some last minute exploring before checking out.
