Just a quick little entry of miscellaneous tidbits to let everybody know that I'm still alive!

Had been tweeting more than blogging lately… and been traveling for work too.

Anyway, my dogs Nash and Sean are here with me while the other two (Alison and Haley) stayed with my folks…

So you may be wondering, why is this blog not updated?

I've been busy of late, and as such have been remiss with my blogging chores.

I do have a TON of food pics snapped on many food trips, but have yet to find the time to write about them.…

My two rowdy pups Nash and Sean dressed up for Halloween last week, in time for a long weekend to spend with family. Here are some snaps.

It's the amazing Spider-Nash!

Can you guess what Sean's costume is?

He's Naruto. Look at how big he is now — looks like…

Sad sad day..

my youngest pup, Chloe, succumbed to sudden death today (Oct 29, 2009) due to viral contamination.

My mom absolutely adore Nash. He’s starting to grow on my dad as well!

Earlier today, Nash ate two…

* I think Sean almost drowned today — he fell into a bucketful of water and shrieked aloud while struggling to jump out. Thank God I was able to quickly get him out as he looks like he was about to suffocate! I suppose if I had delayed by a…
