Satellite Adoption Center

Posted on July 28, 2011 by BrassyDel

No, not that kind! Yes, I’d love to adopt a geosynchronous satellite, too, but I don’t think you can. Yet. While we’re waiting, though, you can totes adopt a dog or a cat from the Humane Society of Boulder Valley at their new satellite adoption center in Westminster! The local Petsmart, which is actually where my former roommate adopted her…

pug-a-licious

Posted on July 28, 2011 by BrassyDel

I’m not what you’d call a girly-girl, especially in regards to dogs. In general, I like big dogs. Big, active dogs. And when I think big, active dog, I don’t really think Pug. But that’s okay. While I don’t think I will ever find myself in the market to own a Pug, I can appreciate that they’re perfect for someone…

A Mother’s Vacation

Posted on July 19, 2011 by BrassyDel

Since my job, for lack of a more accurate word, goes with me, it’s hard to define a “vacation”. We all went up to the mountains last month thanks to a generous invitation to join family on their vacation, and it was great, but the three-day sojourn didn’t really reset my stress levels as well as I would have liked….

Slightly Unoriginal.

No, I did not come up with that tagline. Yes, I still think it’s funny.

Le Fromage, part deux

Posted on July 14, 2011 by BrassyDel

I’ve been slowly making progress cutting out down on cheese. I love cheese, but I sort of don’t. I’m definitely noticing that when I don’t eat it for awhile, I feel generally better. Then when I do eat it, I feel like crap. A lot of chronic inflammation can be attributed to food intolerances and immune issues, just in general,…

Giraffes the Last.

Posted on July 13, 2011 by BrassyDel

FOR NOW. And yes. I misspelled “giraffe” on the bottom. I was going to play it off like the giraffe misspelled it, but pretty sure nobody’s buying that. I AM A TERRIBLE LIAR. And I’m not sure why I feel the need to apologize for that, but I’M SORRY.

I Heard You Like Shoes. (Friday Photo)

Posted on July 8, 2011 by BrassyDel

Pixie loves shoes. One of her first clear words, she delights in pointing out shoes wherever possible. She also is quick to bring you her shoes if asked, since she knows she needs her shoes in order to go out. Sometimes she puts her shoes on herself now, at least when she can slip them on. Recently, she was toddling…

Giraffes the Second

Posted on July 7, 2011 by BrassyDel

After my general displeasure with Tuesday’s giraffes, I decided to start from something really simple and add a little more detail. I am moderately more pleased this go around, though I find myself wishing my University had offered any sort of Graphics Arts in their art department. No such luck. It was also heavily geared toward the starving artist set…

Dulce Means Sweet

Posted on July 6, 2011 by BrassyDel

Dulce is a sweet black lab and sheperd mix, rescued from a hoarding case in Arizona. 9 years old, she is calm, gentle, and a bit of a heart-stealer. Dulce is in a foster home right now and can be adopted through the Humane Society of Boulder Valley – the same place our lovely Tank and Matti came from! This…

What to Wear Wednesday: SHOES

Posted on July 6, 2011 by BrassyDel

I’m channeling Jenny On The Spot right now so that I can bring you What to Wear Wednesday. In fact, Jenny even talked about shoes already here. So. Shoes. Oft overlooked (by men like my husband), they serve a purpose besides just protecting your feet. Your shoes say something about you, and your presentation to the world, and even how…
