The Rainmonster is Here!!!

It is a very wet weekend! I don't like rain. Mama says there is a storm off the coast and that is why it is so wet and windy here. It is also very gray. I don't mind that so much-- it just makes me sleepy. But I don't like to walk in the rain. I do not like to be wet and to get water in my ears and on my fur. On Friday morning, we went to the little park near our house and I peed and pooped as much as I could, then I told Mama I wanted to go back inside. After a day of sleeping, though, I need to exercise and get out, so Mama and I have been taking rainy walks, which kinda sucks. We don't get up to our usual 5000 steps, but that is ok because it so yucky.

On Friday, Mama took me to the office. I spent the whole day curled on up on the nice sofas and in the nice chairs. It was so great! I like going to the office. Mama's co-workers are very nice and give me lots of butt rubs. Her boss is my favorite. I also get to sit by the window and protect the office, which is a very important job and means I have to bark at stuff. I also went to the office on Thursday, and Mama let me stay in the room during a conference call-- her boss sat with me and gave me nice rubs while he talked with their client. The office is very different than when Mama and I first started going; now they have an upstairs with sofas and rugs, like somebody's house! Mama says it is so they can pay people to come over and talk about things, and that sounds cool. But it also means that I have two big sofas to sit on and different rooms to explore. And when it is rainy, I can curl up and rest.

Mama has been resting too. She deserves it! She has been very busy with work and the Jewish holidays. There has been a lot of cooking! She has also been running with me in the morning and it makes us both sleepy. We only run a little bit, but that is enough for me. Mama says it is good for us. Whatever, Mama.

We are doing very well in North Carolina. It has been over a year already! That is crazy! I do not really remember what it was like in New York without my backyard. Mama misses New York sometimes, but she is making friends and adjusting. Papa likes it here a lot, even though he is very busy with studying. He likes to study, though, so that's ok.

I'm going back to sleep now because it is rainy. Happy Sunday!
