Pugalicious

Last night we took Penny (our 4 mo. old pug) over to meet a new baby pug, Maude. Maude lives in the building across the street. She's about 9 weeks old so her and Penny are pretty close in age. I have to say...Penny is the cuter pug. I mean, Maude is pretty cute because she is little. But, all in all I think Penny will grow up to look better. Not so googly.

Anyway, enough of that. After the pug play-date, Drew went to a concert and I had sushi and watched Law and Order. Excuse me, Law and Order: SVU. It was rather disturbing. A man accidently killed his daughter by pushing her down the stairs. But, as it turned out, her dad was leading a double life and the girl that got killed was dating her brother. I know, it was kind of confusing.

Tonight we're going to see Spiderman 2. I am rather indifferent to the whole Spiderman craze. But, I'll give it a try...

Ummm..I've been slacking

So...Brian pointed out to me that I have been slacking on the blog posts. I am truly a Lazy Susan in every sense--even blogging. I promise to be a more regular blogger.

I noticed today that there was an unusual amount of news headlines about Barbie. And these were real NEWS headlines. First, on CNN.com one of the main stories included who Barbie's new boyfriend was (Blaine). And, on Yahoo, there was a story about some guy who won a lawsuit against Mattel. Apparently he was using Barbies in his artwork. Here's a portion of the story that I found entertaining:

The photos often depicted Barbie dolls placed in sexually provocative positions. One called "Barbie Enchiladas," shows four Barbie dolls inside a lit oven, wrapped in tortillas and covered with salsa in a casserole dish.

Mattel spokeswoman Lisa Marie Bongiovanni said Monday the company had not made a decision on whether to appeal. "Mattel is still very committed to vigorously protecting our intellectual property," Bongiovanni said.

My favorite part is when Mattel refers to it's intellectual property.
