This post is about our dog, because he’s clearly starved for attention. (eye roll). /post/2013/06/04/ozzie/ /post/2013/06/04/ozzie/#respond Tue, 04 Jun 2013 05:55:00 +0000 http://04bf1a02-c672-4bbf-aa34-79bc075710b3 Since I’m the worst dog owner ever (sad but true) I tend to neglect this little Monster of ours on this blog.

And by ‘running’ I mean I managed to crawl into work (barely) on-time and survive a few meetings, but I’m exhausted. I’d like to blame this tiredness on the fact that it is (again) Monday – … Continue reading
