300th Post and I’m wasting it on Calvin

On Saturday, I unleashed Calvin for his greatest adventure to date. He spent an hour and a half taunting creatures of all shapes and sizes into chasing him – which I’ve learned is his favourite thing to do. Paul, who must have ultimate patience, managed to capture much of this on video AND freeze-frame on Calvin’s crazy tongue.

If that’s not enough for you, check out his repeated surprise every time he runs up to the newf lookalike only to realize that he most definitely is not the newf. Hilarious.

Note the maple leaf to one-year-old dog ratio.

As always, more Calvin action is available simply by clicking on the Watch Me button at the top of the site.

Furthermore, the day before we take possession of the house, my Mojo is bringing home this:
I will surely be caught in a unpack vs. play-with-puppy conundrum. However, the odds are good that I will get to puppy sit when they’re moving into their new house in August!

Cave to the pressure and put on toque, immediately regretting the decision and removing it quickly to show a traumatic case of hat hair.

Baaaaaaasically what happens every morning before I go to work. Sigh.

Marie April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

I think this is one of my favorite dream dates.

Next time don’t insert foot in mouth. :)

HBee April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

well-intentioned heartbreaker April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

ahhahh, oh this one is perfect!

Paula April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

i would imagine that any date which involved you getting punched in the manscaped areas would not get a repeat performance . . .

Meghan April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

One of the best dates yet!

Reply

JenBun April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

HILARIOUS!

(And see? Modelesque!!)

Happy Manscaping, my dear…

paul April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

I can relate to the stray hairs. I call my hairstyle “perfectly messed up!”

Jossie Posie April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

Love it. Especially the obsessive manscaping followed by the cheestastic thumbs up at your naked self.

Andy April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

I was missing this kind of entries!!

But shame on you Ben, you were my only hope for reading a non-Thanksgiving post today about people rubbing in my face the fact that they’re on vacation and eating A LOT.

Were you planning on getting some – hence the manscaping? Perhaps that’s why she punched you! :)

Erin April 26, 2010 at 4:32 pm

Yay for more Dream Dates!

I had to say the word “shrinkering” out loud since I’m too dumb to pronounce it correctly in my head.

Also, props on the toque. Way to represent for the homeland… even if it didn’t save you from getting sucker-punched.
