Why I Hate Tax Time - by Henri

I decided today I don't like tax time. 

My Daddy talks to himself alot during this time of year and that kind of bothers me since I can't tell if he's talking to me or the federal government.  I hope its the federal government, 'cause I don't want him to talk to me that way.

Also, he seems like he's stuck on the computer too much.  I have to go over to him to make sure he's okay since his breathing is unsteady and I can tell his heart rate is irregular.

There's also papers all over the place and usually right where I need to walk.

He said I was not deductible - which might be a good thing since I am already lovable and adorable and his best friend.

I really don't want him to deduct me since if he did someone from the federal government might come and take me away if he used me as a deduction ... something about a government that is powerful enough to give you want you need is powerful enough to take everything you have.  That sounds wrong.

I hope he doesn't have to pay too much.  I worry about the good stew I get here and if Daddy has to pay alot I might not get homemade stew to eat.  I don't care for kibble and Science Diet or ProPlan.  I grew up on Purina Kennel Ration so I know about poverty for dogs.  That was a long time ago - maybe almost two years.

I brought him a stick today.  It was one I had worked on for awhile - I don't think he can handle the hard stuff right now, so I brought him one I had chewed on for a day.  I hope he uses it 'cause that boy needs to chew on something.

Anyway, that's what I think.

My Laptop Goes Kaputski

We went out to dinner a couple of weeks ago and I just left the laptop running.  By the time we got home it had gone into a "sleep" mode and never recovered.  I went to the desktop PC and then on to Toshiba's website to try and find a fix.  Ended up with a live tech rep who ultimately advised I take it to Best Buy where I had bought it.

That revealed that the motherboard had fried itself.  I bought a box to allow me to access the files on it and now I'm confined to this desktop PC.  Somehow the convenience of the laptop seems irreplaceable.  As you can tell I've not been posting.  Well, that and numerous distractions - Alpha course's last week, and Sidney and Karl visiting for a week.  All more fun than this.  Sorry.
