Nothing Much

Nothing much is going on in my world these days.
Mom's free internet has been shut off - probably because the people that she was mooching off of discovered the mooch - so now she has to take her laptop and all of her research for school to the public library to use their free internet.
Dad is working really long hours and is getting ready for his bicycle race, which is actually called a century. He has been spending six or seven hours on his days off riding around town with some guy named Drew. Personally I think that he should be at home with us instead, but whatever.
Mom continues to enjoy her yoga classes, the only down fall of which is that she is constantly trying to get me to do a yoga pose called "Down Dog" so that she can post a picture of me doing it here.
Grandma has been in Minnesota for the past week (mom drove her and Leo to the airport a while ago and since then we have been going to visit grandma's cat, Tipper, who used to be ours, but is now unfriendly), and is coming home soon.
Grandpa and Grandma Beck continue to be interested in their niece, who has come to live with them, and in their new dog, another "terrible terrier" named tykeee or something similar (Dad was not forth-coming about the name so neither Mom nor I am entirely sure how to spell or pronounce it).
I went to a friends birthday party last Sunday. Dudditts (another pug) turned 3 years old, and we celebrated by running amok in his back yard and eating special pug cake made by Dudditts Mom, Desiree. There were not as many people at the birthday party as there would normally have been because it was memorial day weekend, but there was a woman (michelle) and her daughter (Laura) that we met at a previous pug meetup. Mom and Dad do not like them because they are extremely rude and obnoxious, and we apparently will not be attending any more meetups that feature the two of them.
Mom and Dads Jeep continues to be broken, and they will be selling it for parts as soon as they have the money to put an add in the newspaper. I think that this is sad because now they don't have a car of their own! They were going to buy a car from Great Grandma, but that just didn't work out. Oh Well.

P.S. We've Moved Again, Did You Know?

Did I forget to tell you all...? I think that I did! Mom, Dad, the cats and I have moved again!
We have finally moved out of Grandma and Grandpas house and are living in our very own Studio Loft!
We love it here (although it does have stairs - grrrr) and Mom has done such an incredible job decorating!
In the picture to the left you can see that I was well protected by bubble wrapping on moving day - I felt SO loved!

Computers Are Cool...!

Hello Readers (the two of you that there are anyways)! I just wanted to send a quick little note and tell everybody how cool I think that computers are!
Recently Mom and Dads computer died. It is, aparently, down for the count and is never going to be getting up.
So, Mom and Dad, after a lot of arguments and yelling, bought a new computer. It is a nice, bright and shiny new Gateway Notebook that Mom named (because you are forced to name all Gateway computers the first time that they are turned on), Lady Luck.
The thing that is SOOOOOOOO cool about this computer is the fact that it is wireless internet capable.
When Mom turned it on a few minutes ago Lady Luck informed her that a free wireless service provider is in range and asked Mom, "Do you want to Connect?". Much to Moms astonishment, Lady Luck actually connected to the fastest speed internet that she has ever used! Now, She and I are sitting on the kitchen floor typing this update for you all!
Mom is so happy because now she can move ahead full speed on her Masters Degree applications and studying for her GRE test, whatever that is!
Love,
