a random list: Matilda
Feb. 20th, 2009 07:16 pmTop ten things I like about Matilda
1. When I'm reading on the couch and she sleeps on my stomach
2. Her crazy-happy barking when we get home from work
3. Her little whimpery begging noise when we're cooking dinner
4. The happy yelp when we sneak her some food
5. Playing catch with a ball that's much too big for her mouth. She'll try to carry it anyway.
6. Her doggy-dreams. Her legs will twitch and her tail will thump and sometimes she'll growl.
7. How much she likes just being in the same room with us. She's happy to sit on the floor and doze when we're both in the same room.
8. If we're not in the same room, she'll try to herd us into one--usually me to wherever Lorne is. I think that says something about who she thinks the alpha dog is.
9. How she turns in three circles before she beds down to sleep.
10. That she seems to understand Welsh as well as English. Of course, it's probably mostly tone but still. We've got ourselves one smart pup.
