(wags finger) "Betty betty bad!"

It's a Seinfeld reference...

Last night we rented Toy Story 2, and stopped at Albertson's for something.  Since we were on center street, we decided to go in the pet store and look at the CUTE cute puppies.  Course last time we did this we ended up with one.  And they were soooooo cute we both thought about bringing another one home.  They had two baby pugs this time, both males.  The one looked like he was about the same size Gwennie was when we first got her, which was kind of shocking to compare how big she's gotten.  She got weighed today and she's 12 pounds now, triple what she was!  It's crazy.  Anyway, we went home and watched Toy Story 2, then watched Shutter Island - I thought it was good.

This morning we took Gwennie to mom's so she could play outside, and went to see Toy Story 3.  After that movie, we had just enough time to get to the dollar theater to see Robin Hood.  Two movies in a row, four total this weekend!  (The only one we paid for was the Toy Story 2 rental, because we had some promotional freebies and gift cards for the rest.)  We picked up Gwennie and took her to a vet appointment, - THIS IS GROSS - because we noticed last night that she had some weird looking stuff in her ear- I thought it might be scabs from scratching and thought she might have an infection.  Well, it turns out she does have an infection, but it wasn't scabs, it was like, fungus or something.  We got a different vet this time, and he was actually being kind of a jerk about the whole thing, "It's a severe ear infection, probably been there for a couple of months" and "this is not normal behavior for a pug at all, very atypical behavior" and no-so-subtly suggesting we take the behavior classes offered by Petsmart.  To be honest, she really does have some behavior problems when it comes to trying to restrain her - whether to trim her nails or swab her ears or stick a thermometer in her butt - she's very wiggly and whiney.  But he was passive-aggressively trying to imply that we are bad pet owners and was scolding us, pretty much.  I feel so bad about her ear infection, I really do.  And we are now medicating her.  But overall I think we've been pretty responsible with her and the more I thought about it, the more mad I got; he didn't need to be a total prick.  But oh well.  We did sign up for the behavior/training classes, which will start in two weeks, and I think they'll be really good.  We spent over 200 bucks on everything pet-related today.  :-/

Well, we used another gift card on dinner from Chili's tonight and watched some King of the Hill episodes.  Geoff is studying for his lesson tomorrow and I'm going to go read now.  Aside from the exhausting vet visit, it's been a very enjoyable weekend.
