EXPLORING FOREVER PALACE

YOU KNOW THAT PICTURE YOU JUST SAW OF ME TRYING TO LOOK AT THE WORLD THROUGH MY NEW (UNPOLISHED) EMERALD GREEN EYEBALLS THERE?

(IT WASN'T REALLY A REACTION TO MY SHOT'S)

ACTUALLY...IT WAS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT A SELFIE WITH A NEW PHONE)...

(MENTAL NOTE TO SELF: ALWAYS TURN OFF FLASH ON NEW PHONE'S CAMERA!

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH THAT PHOTO FURRRRREVER!

(YOU HAVE TO ADMIT...SLIPPING THAT PHOTO INTO MY BLOG RIGHT AFTER A COINCIDENTAL POKE-A-PUPPY FESTIVAL AT THE VET'S OFFICE...WAS A PRETTY CREATIVE WAY OF MAKING PRETTY GOOD USE...OF A PRETTY BAD PICTURE  RIGHT?

        UPON OUR RETURN TRIP FROM THE VET, 

THIS PHOTO WAS TAKEN OF ME JUST INSIDE THE PALACE GATES.  

THEY CALLED IT 'PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY' FOR SOME REASON?

             ANYWAY, THE VET SAID I WAS GONNA BE JUST FINE.

 RIGHT NOW, I'M JUST REALLY, REALLY, SMALL...AND REALLY, REALLY, HUNGRY....

AND I ALSO LOOK LIKE I HAVE A REALLY, REALLY BIG HEAD!

TIME TO EAT!...LET THE INSANITY BEGIN! 

O.M.G. MY FRIENDS...O.M.G!

THESE DOGS COME ABSOLUTELY UNGLUED  OVER SOME FOOD Y'ALL!

UN...GA...LUED!

AS PRINCESS OF THE PALACE AND RIGHTFUL HEIR TO THE THRONE, I DO HEREBY PROCLAIM THIS PARTICULAR TIME OF DAY TO BE 'THE MALICE IN THE PALACE!'

I HAVE SPOKEN!

IN LESS THAN A MINUTE...IT WAS OVER...

NOT A PEEP Y'ALL. IT WAS CRAZY....I NEEDED A DRINK...

YOU KNOW THAT WELL KNOWN DOG WHISPERER GUY?

I THINK MAYBE HE MIGHT BE FROM "MILAN"

IT WOULD BE EASIER FOR HIM TO TEACH GOLDFISH TO BLOW BUBBLES IN FRENCH THAN IT WOULD BE TO BRING ANY PRE-FEEDING PEACE TO THIS KITCHEN!

AFTER BREAKFAST, I DECIDED TO TAKE A CASUAL UNLEASHED STROLL AROUND THE MAIN FLOOR OF THE PALACE AND SEE WHAT THE OTHERS WERE UP TO.

                         THERE'S TIKA WORKING ON HER BALANCING SKILLS.

(LAST NIGHT SHE BALANCED HERSELF LIKE THAT ON TOP OF AN EMPTY CATSUP BOTTLE)  ANYTHING FOR ATTENTION I GUESS? 

        HMMM. AND WHAT IS LITTLE MISS MOLLY MAGEE UP TOO TODAY?

                             POSING FOR THE CAMERA...OF COURSE....SILLY ME!

WHAT ELSE WOULD SHE BE DOING WHEN THERE'S NOTHING TO BARK AT?

OH LOOK,,,.HERE COMES MERLIN!
HI MERLIN! HEY BUDDY!
WHO'S A GOOD BOY? WHO'S A GOOD BOY?
LOOK HOW HANDSOME YOU ARE!

I THINK YOU AND ME ARE GONNA SPEND A LOT OF TIME TOGETHER, YA BIG FLUFFY  COTTON BALL YOU!"

NOW MERLIN...ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE HE MIGHT STILL BE TRAINABLE....

(AS FOR THE OTHERS?...LET US PRAY)

LET'S SEE IF WE CAN'T TEACH MERLIN A NEW TRICK TODAY OKAY?

"COME HERE MERLIN! COME HERE BOY! COME ON! GOOD BOY!

LOOK AT YOU...YOU LOOK LIKE A WHITE WOLF! YES YOU DO!

CAN YOU MAKE PRETTY WOLF EYES FOR ME MERLIN?

 I'LL BET YOU CAN! COME ON BUDDY! YOU CAN DO IT! 

MAKE PRETTY WOLF EYE'S FOR ME...

                                        GOOD BOY! I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT!

SORRY 'BOUT THAT....

(I FOUND ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE CAMERA-FLASH MALFUNCTION PHOTOS I NEEDED TO FIND A PLACE IN THIS BLOG FOR)

HMMM,,, I WONDER IF THAT CRUMB-SNATCHING LITTLE NIGHTMARE IN FUR, KACI WILL BE A LITTLE MORE RECEPTIVE TO MY PRESENCE IN THE HOUSE TODAY?

                                  "TOO SOON?  PERHAPS TOMORROW THEN?"
                                             
         ME TO MY CAMERA MAN:  "DID YOU SEE THAT?  DID YOU GET THE SHOT?

                  O.M.G. WAS THAT VENOM DRIPPING OFF THE TIP OF HER TONGUE!?

SOMEBODY PLEASE!  EITHER TEACH THIS OLD DOG A NEW TRICK,

OR CALL AN EXORCIST ALREADY!

I NEED GO FIND SOMEWHERE SAFE TO CALM DOWN IN!

I'M NOT KIDDING HERE FOLKS!  

THAT DOG FRAZZLES MY LITTLE NERVES Y'ALL!

ALL OF THEM!

IF YOU LISTEN REALLY CAREFULLY YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO HEAR MY BLOOD PRESSURE BOUNCING OFF THE STARBOARD SIDE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION IN FOUR...THREE...TWO..
