font-family:Arial">The pups got to see their teenager this past weekend on his first
visit back home from college. They were sooooooo excited to see him! It was so
funny, in the two weeks that he had been gone, whenever a car went by playing loud
music, they would all stand at the door to the garage, tails wagging in unison.
Nope – it’s not him I kept telling them, but still they stood and wagged.
When do you think you might come home for a visit next? I asked him. Strange
look – uh, Thanksgiving I guess. Pups you have a long time to wait now!</span></font></p>

font-family:Arial">I’ve been trying to figure out if the teenager’s
absence or boredom from it being too hot and sticky and itchy the past couple of
weeks to take long walks has caused the Gabester to revert to his puppy ways lately.
The score is as follows:</span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;

behind the couch and peers out at us, which he usually never does. I have heard
rumblings from the DH that the damn crate will be coming out of the basement soon
