I tried to get photos of happy pre-meal anticipation this morning (the Supper Tug, chirping, spinning...) However... the Spaniels saw me pull the phone out of my pocket, and they dashed to the kitchen mat to pose for a carrot. Hmmmm. They're very, very good puppies, but there is more to life than posing.
Two happy spaniels came in from the pastures when called, and sat for their Good Candy.
Mmmmnom nom nom nom, oh yes, that was excellent.
~Adventures in Clipping~
Carefully part the hair at the skunk streak, trying to separate it from the black floof. Barette that streak down. Take the clippers to all the black fuzz between the skunk streak and the ears, get the muzzle too, avoiding the whiskers. Clip the cheek and then the entire underside of the ear, in order to reduce the massive volume of earfloof. Repeat on the other side.
Take out the barettes. Go have a nice squirmy roll in the grass, to brush off some of the loose hair.
Get a good look at the new skunk-hawk. Are Tristan's eyes visible now? It appears they are!
I brushed Tristan's hair back. Then I said, "you wanna pose for pictures?" and both Spaniels stepped onto the kitchen mat and laid down. In that 5 seconds Tristan lost his eyeballs again... definitely time to trim the skunk-hawk.
Yes, I am very sleepy, but I see you looking at me. You should therefore rub my belly.
Oh yes, like that. Just like that. *yawn* oh yes. *quiet raaaaaaawr*

Twoflower the Tourist meets Rincewind the Great Wizzard, hires him as a tour guide, and they visit the Mended Drum to photograph a little local color. The color is mostly "bruise purple" and "dental ivory." Twoflower is delighted. The Luggage is helping... win the nightly fights. The camera imp is getting hand cramps. Rincewind, as is typical, is looking for an opportunity to bolt to the next country, or continent if possible.

Oh, sweetheart, you're the best little health disaster money couldn't possibly buy.

Ehh *cronch cronch cronch* what's up, doc?
Yvaine the Martini has returned from her ophthalmology follow-up, and the doctor says her eye looks to be healing just as it should at this time.
Still itchy, probably a result of the healing, so cone stays on (until she no longer wants to vigorously rub her face against every available surface).
The vet staff apparently love her, gushed again about what a good girl she is and how she loves everyone. They had given her the whole double handful of baby carrots I sent along with her, between 8:30 dropoff and 11:30 pickup. I thought she might be there all day again... she's not spoiled, oh, no.
Yv chirps, rather piercingly, when she wants to meet people or dogs (or cats, or anything that moves); I am glad they're interpreting that as the friendliness it is instead of finding it annoying.
