Just a girl who carries a very long hockey stick. And wears some very red pants.

Our new dog, Ellie's biopsy results came back today. It's not looking good.

I miss the Talking Moose. Although I see that he's making a comeback, just like disco!

OHMYGOD Netscape 6.0 is in preview and it looks like a combination of Solaris, AOL and Flash. Oh, that I wish I were kidding.

There's a tendency to reinvent the wheel on the Web because it's always changing, but change for the sake of change is not necessary, in fact it's a step backwards.

You have got to be kidding me.

Do you ever wonder what the caption below your name would be if you were on tv? It depends on the context, I guess. If you were on Jerry Springer because your wife left you for an ex-nun then it would be different than if you were on the news because your house was robbed. But wouldn't life be so simple if who you were and what you were about could be summarized neatly for television viewers?

Today I think I'd be Liz, concerned parent of a sick dog.

I'm not sure why this little window disturbs me so much. Is it necessary to have a pop-up window to describe every person involved with Elian?

My loan finally went through!! Just called my bank to hear that my balance is $23,452. It will only be that high for one day, today, but I'm going to pretend like it's always that high, like writing checks for $21K is something I do all the time.

Amy found this gem, a letter from Michael Moore to Elian Gonzales. It's everything I'd want to say. Janet Reno is right, if that boy was American and trapped in a foreign land, we'd be storming the place to get him home. Never mind that if he was an adult, he'd be either sent back to Cuba or detained in a refugee camp right now.

Haven't been in the blogging mood lately. I think the new dog is sicker than we think, today she can't walk on the leg with the tumor at all. Why is it that I've known her for less than a week and already it's as if she's been with us forever? Maybe it's because she's been through so much already and I just want her to be comfortable.

Finally got pictures of the dogs and our recent beagle gathering uploaded. Here they are.

Everything you see on television is edited for television.

Why is it that I can have someone's email, voice mail, cell phone and pager numbers, and yet I'd rather walk over to their office to see if they're here than use any of those other methods of communicaton?

Just heard from the vet about Ellie's (the new dog) tumor. It's so extensive that he didn't want to remove it before getting the biopsy back. If they can remove it, she'll need an orthopedic surgeon to do it. We've had her for 4 days and this news still devestates me as if she'd been with us for years.

It's kinda scary when every stock I watch has a - sign beside it.

I can't even imagine how good life would be if my company offered pet insurance.

Mullets are everywhere!

Picked up the new dog, Ellie on Saturday. So far it's been uneventful, Alice doesn't seem to mind her much at all, which is the best I can hope for.
