Observations from a CSI

I am watching too much CSI.

The proof of this confession happened yesterday, when I took the babies for their beauty appointment and found the groomer was MIA. After waiting patiently for 20 minutes my curiosity got the best of me. I observed the “open” sign in the door but saw the lights were not on yet. I looked on the floor to make sure I didn’t see any feet sticking out in a suspicious manner. I contemplated “casing” the apartment above the shop to see if she lived there and was ok. I’ve tried contacting her several times today and still there is no answer (and I know she is only closed Sunday and Monday). So now what? I’m worried about foul play and yet I don’t want the police to look at me like a crazy woman if I call them to check out the situation. Mostly, I don’t want them to tell me I am watching too much CSI…like I don’t already know that one. In the mean time, Sadie Belle is traumatized because she is rather grungy from being in heat. She has what appears to be the beginning of dreadlocks. It’s not a good look for her. What to do. I may need to make that call and chance being called crazy.

In other news…I spent the better part of the morning worried that Sadie had eaten contact lenses, or at least one of them. I looked all over the bathroom, hoping to find it stuck to something, but no luck. I’ve decided it can’t be worse than Sassy’s habit of eating earplugs. Luckily Sadie can’t actually eat the earplugs, she only chews on them and leaves the gooey mess for me to clean.

It hasn’t been all about the babies though. I’ve kept busy preparing my 2009 calendar. All birthdays and anniversaries are now neatly written and it’s posted on the wall. Now I can only hope I remember to look at it so I don’t forget anybodies special day. I’ve also been busy with my adopted puppy on Facebook. Admittedly, it’s a little bit of a pain in the ass, but OCD does not allow me to not attend to Lulu daily and make sure she is 100% fed, happy and cared for with puppy points. My biggest project however, has been de-duping songs from my I-tunes. So far I’ve been able to delete over 10,000 files. I’m trying to make a deal with myself that I don’t need to categorize all 89,000 songs before I start making play lists. With all this going on, I don’t even have time to work. Actually, I have a couple of interviews this week. We’ll see where that leads. I’m not anticipating anything exciting until after the holidays.

Well, I need to get back to the CSI marathon on Spike. I have a little crush on Grissom.
