"What's that?"
"How was my walk?"
"you know, i knew we were in trouble the moment we set out..blah..blah..and then the water started running everywhere and it was so wet! my toes are filthy! look at them! you know how i hate being dirty and muddy! blah blah..."
"...none of my friends were there! blah...i mean, who would be stupid enough to drag a dog out in this rain? what was the point of it all? blah blah blah ...i could have drowned! i'm telling you, Typist...the Cushion is mad. mad! blah blah..."
"...and by the way, why am i still sitting here with this soggy coat on? is there some good reason? like, do you guys want me to catch cold or something?..."
"Thank you. That's much better. You can dry me off now if you like."
"Arrrrgh!!! Too rough! Too rough! What's wrong, Typist? Haven't you had your coffee yet this morning?"
"Yes, please let The Cushion do it."
"Gentle okay?"
"That was lovely. Thank you Cushion."
"Say, are those my treats on the counter?"
"Can I have one for being good?"

oh my goodness...like a bath walk...that just give me nightmares to think about that happening! good thing you were able to get home and get a treat after all that. darn weather people. usually they are wrong!
Ew, we don't like the rain very much precious~we prefer the frozen kind of water BOL!! RA, Isis & Nanuk
That's crazy! We've had insane weather here, too! Georgia, I think the weather gods have gone mad!
Mom said she and her friend were just looking at those spiderweb pictures at work this afternoon. *shudder* She said that's the stuff of nightmares!

Those pictures of Georgia are very expressive...
Please keep those spiders downunder. Poor farmer, it must have been a shock when he opened his windows
liking the freek-ing spider web landscape.
Very sincerely yours Mrs. B --
EX-CUUUUSE ME, COMING THROUGH ON THE SIGN OUT:
Get over yourself and buck up, Missus. These drenched people need a proper sign-off:
Eternally yours in gentle rub-downs after bad weather.
P.S. I occasionally eat spiders in the basement.
Ben in Bermtopia
Dear Mr Ben, you would NOT want to eat the spiders here. There are many bad ones that will kill ya or make ya really sick. I'm not allowed near spiders eva. Please be nice to your Missus. She's okay and cleaned up your bathroom rage mess. You have to be polite to the help. I should know. Big hug then, Georgia x
Typist...I think you have been properly told off.
Phew! Good thing you had your rain jacket on. Have you been able to get all the mud out of your toes? I hope so. Most certainly the weather should improve soon. Maybe March is coming in like a lion, and will go out like a lamb.
Snow! Did you actually get snow? Or is that icing sugar?
Georgia really is a complainer, though. At least she gets a rain coat. We normally make Shiva walk in the rain naked.
Ah well, GLP is cute and silly so I will forgive her. Besides, I hate the rain too.
Poor Georgia. I have never seen such an unhappy expression on a dog in my life.
I hope you remember how to do it again. I suspect it could be very useful.
I found myself instantly getting up to look for a little piece of liver before I realized you were so far away that by the time it got to you it would be moldy from all the web.
If she hadn't gotten a walk, it would have been much worse. She throws tantrums and gives us the cold shoulder when she doesn't get to go out. LOL. Yes, I'm afraid we may have raised A Somewhat Petulant Dog ;p
Ms Tonks! You didn't click on the link! Hrrrumph. I'm not telling you what it is ;)
Oh hello Petntek! Thanks for reading and commenting :)
If only that were true about the weather but I'm not holding my breath this year. I sound just like Georgia these days ... whinge whinge whine lol.
poor thing, that raincoat served no purpose being soaked like that, did it? we have crazy weather going on over here too, it's been so warm and sunny the past few weeks-now they're talking about a snow possibilty.
Oh Ms Pea, you poor thing! I bet Typist was laughing the whole time she was taking those photos wasn't she? You look absolutely sullen. I hope you got a bunch of treats to make up for the Typist's poor judgement. :-)
Oh man, GLP looks SUPER sucky in her rain coat!! I think this time she's got Jersey beat on suck factor :0
Those are spider webs, aren't they?
Oh how I hate going out in the rain! Poor thing....at least you got a treat!

Hope you've started to dry out... I heard about all the rain you've had on the radio... sounds very very soggy. And aren't those little money spiders amazing????!!!!
OMG--what a face! You have truly captured some special moments there. Looks like SOMEONE will be glad when the dry weather returns. Stay safe out there.
That's what it's like every day walking in Portland during the winter, GLP! Ugh. Gross. And shudder to think.
-c at ddy.
Oh Georgia Little Pea, you need to write a photo story book! You are too cute! Sorry to hear about the wet paws! There is nothing worse than wet feet!
Hi Georgia,
Did you know that seeing your photos and reading your thoughts always brighten my day?
I hope you, Mom and Dad have a nice weekend.
Kisses and hugs.
Beijos e abraços.
My goodness - somehow I missed this post altogether - it didn't come up on my blogreader even once.
So glad I scrolled down......GLP, Eddie can identify with that look as he is dragged out in his raincoat in the monsoons and looks quite pathetic when we return. Here's hoping you will still get some sunny days this fall and winter. If not, come visit us in the northern hemisphere.
