And now I'm appropriately exhausted. Whew!

Interesting fact I did not know before this year: If you walk around with a chihuahua, at least once a day, somebody will go "Ay, chihuahua!" at you in a Spanish or mock-Spanish accent. This is probably supposed to be funny. It's not... especially when the chihuahua in question is trying to attack their pit bull, husky, or rather large mutt.

(She lunges very dramatically at the end of her leash and barks a lot. I suspect that this is the canine equivalent of screaming "HOLD ME BACK!" while not trying very hard to escape your friends' grasp, but I don't want to test it.)

The mental image of that little yappy pupper is adorable. Probably less-so for you, but ah, well. Sorry!
