As you may know, Hallie is spending a lot of her time on Face Book.  Sometimes she leaves her page up and I have noticed that a lot of her friends write these lists of interesting tidbits about themselves.  I like that idea, so below is my list of 25 Things About Me.

My Bark Mitzvah

As you know, I am a Jewish dog and I am hoping to celebrate my Bark Mitzvah – to acknowledge my entrance into Jewish grown-up dog-hood.  I know about Bark Mitzvahs, because My G had one, Lil Joe spends a lot of time practicing for his and B conducts one just about every week on Saturdays.  I just know that mine must be soon.  True it is strange that I have yet to make it to a synagogue, but why quibble?

Last week, a woman came over and she sings with a band.  B, Hallie, Lil Joe and me sat with her and discussed what sounded like a really fun party where her band would be playing.  I really think we were talking about my Bark Mitzvah party.  She kept asking Lil Joe what kind of music he likes and what games he wanted to play.  I sat on B’s lap with my paws on the table, listening to her every word.  I hope that at my Bark Mitzvah party the band plays: How Much is that Doggie in the Window, Who Let the Dogs Out, You Ain’t Nothing but a Hound Dog,  and Me and You and a Dog Named Boo.  Those are some of my favorites.  Maybe I should invite Snoop Dog to come too?

I know that a Bark Mitzvah is not only about the party.  I’m really looking forward to it all – the service, my new suit, and my speech.  I just wish Hallie would tell me when it is.  It’s an exciting time for the family.  Enough about me – I wonder when Lil Joe’s Bar Mitzvah is.

Maybe They are Really Dogs

Happy New Year!  It is 10:30  in the morning and B, me and Hallie just woke up.  We were all snuggled in bed sleeping like, some would say babies, but I, of course would say, like dogs.  Lil Joe and My G are still asleep.  Could it be that the family is really a family of dogs and not really a family of humans?  Nah! They would be really ugly dogs if they were dogs.

Anyway, I’m wishing everyone evrywhere a year filled with peace, happiness, food and walks.  Can you believe that in only 20 more days, there can very well be a new dog in the White House.  Go Obama – the girls and dogs everywhere  are counting on you.
