  • Quick Update

    | | TrackBacks (0)

    I've been working a lot lately.

    I'm still at work now. I'm waiting for someone to send me files so I can upload them so they can be tested. While I wait, I decided to update my not quite forgotten blog.

    New Lens!

    I got a new lens! One of the two I want before our next vacation. It's a great portrait lens and it does pretty well in low light too. I had a chance to play with it at my cousin Mark's wedding this past weekend. Mark and Kim got married out side of Columbus, Ohio this weekend. Chris and I drove up with my parents on Friday and back on Sunday. We hit a bit of snow, but fortunately, not a lot of bad weather.

    I'll post some pics later. The files I was waiting on just came in and I want to go home!

    After a stange winter, it's finally snowing. The dogs celebrated by take a few laps around the backyard.

    Yay! Snow Finally!
  • 2 Dogs, 1 Ear, 4 Stitches

    Does my ear look funny?

    I get home from work late and say hi to everyone. The next thing we know, Chris' pants are covered in blood. Apparently the dogs got into a fight shortly before I got home and Berkley managed to pierce Cisco's ear -- he had blood running down from the same place on both sides of his ear. We figure out the source, I apply pressure, and the bleeding slows. I decide to call the vet since they're only open for another 20 minutes to find out how I should clean this so it doesn't get infected. They suggest we come in and have them do it and take a look.

    Cisco and I head out to the vet leaving Chris behind to clean the drops of blood we're now finding on the linoleum, carpet and couch. Turns out Berkley managed to nick a vein and the ear is still bleeding. An hour later we leave with 4 stitches (2 on each side) and 14 days worth of antibiotics.

    Something had been brewing between the two of them for the last week. We've had a few very tense meal times (they only ever fight over food). I don't know what has gotten into them, but hopefully it's now out of their system.
