Kiss My Booties, Bedtime!

Posted on November 18, 2010 by BrassyDel

As serious an issue as toddler tantrums are, they’re also hilarious. I think it’s important to keep your cool when dealing with a tantrum, and keeping earplugs a sense of humor about it really helps me with that. At 17 months old, Pixie is fully into experimenting with the social tactic of tantruming and has been working on her technique….

Stop and Smell the Roses, Then Pee on Them

Posted on November 16, 2010 by BrassyDel

Having two dogs really puts their quirks in high contrast. Today we’re going to indulge in a little anthropomorphization of my dogs and compare their walking habits to, of course, forum posts. It’s pretty common knowledge that when dogs pee they’re also marking, so I figure it’s sort of like a post to all of the other doggies on the…

Mammal Du Jour: the Grizzly!

Posted on November 13, 2010 by BrassyDel

The following is a guest post by the talented and old Animal of the blog Animal Magnetism. Topics typically discussed at Animal Magnetism include news of the day, outdoor life and wildlife, “The Manly Arts,” and (no surprise if you are already familiar with the gentleman in question) a healthy dose of Totty, otherwise known as The Feminine Aesthetic. Today’s…

Matti Says PBBBTTTHHHTT!

Posted on November 13, 2010 by BrassyDel

I almost used this photo for Thursday’s post about snow, but opted for the one where it looked like he was smiling. Matti smiles all the time, but it’s kind of hard to get it on camera. When you ask one of the dogs to hold still or stay they freeze up and look oh so serious. This one? I…

November Flurries

Posted on November 11, 2010 by BrassyDel

A couple days ago, we finally got our first snow of the season. Not that I would have minded waiting much longer for it, rather it’s just an oddity. Sometimes we get snowfall as early as September! Tuesday’s snow was basically a dusting, followed by more dusting today. It’s been snowing off and on since sometime last night, but the…

Photo Fun: CFFs

Posted on November 6, 2010 by BrassyDel

There doesn’t seem to be much going on in the social world of the internet on the weekends, so I figured a Saturday is a fine time to post some fluff. You know, as opposed to all of the clearly non-fluff posts I make during the week. This photo is actually one of my favorite ones of our dear cats…

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from Studio Brassy and a busy little Bee!

Clearly, I’m a Bad Mother

Posted on October 26, 2010 by BrassyDel

Apparently, it had been just slightly too long between diaper changes and miss Pixie was soaked. Soaked! I got her totally stripped down and changed and then had to run upstairs to grab her some dry clothes. In the time it took me to get upstairs, grab her clothes, and run back downstairs, Pixie was already up on the futon…

Dance, Baby, Dance

Posted on August 31, 2010 by BrassyDel

Pixie is 15 months old, which means that very knowledgeable people with many letters after their names think she absolutely ought not to watch a minute of television for another 9 months. Fortunately for them, Pixie doesn’t really like television. Pixie likes books (for eating), cheese cubes (for throwing), and her very own playhouse that looks suspiciously like my dog’s…

Damien: the Feline Retrospective

Posted on January 12, 2010 by BrassyDel

August 9th, 2001: My boyfriend and I walked into the Human Society of Boulder Valley. Shortly thereafter, we left with a cardboard box containing what we would soon learn was the Best Cat Ever. Sure, he had a tooth rotting in his mouth and was unable to eat dry food, but that was quickly remedied at the Vet’s. When we…
