Greetings from Pittsboro! As some of you might know, Pat and I have made our escape from the suburban sprawl of North Atlanta and have relocated to a quirky little town in North Carolina called Pittsboro. We are about 20 miles from Chapel Hill down the infamous highway 15-501. I decided to start a blog to keep everyone up-to-date on our adventures in the "Pitt", as we fondly refer to our new haven.

I did not know that my uterus belonged to the Republicans
...I don't even know if I have a uterus. Jane and Pat had me "fixed" when was a pup and I am not sure what they did to my uterus. At any rate I have been listening to the news and all the brouhaha over birth control, womens' rights, and something transvaginal. Huh? I thought that was an airline too. All of this talk is about to drive Jane up the wall and across the ceiling. She keeps screaming "it's 2012 for God's sake"! I think this is more important than Murray State being ranked so high in the polls.

It must be mad March again
Okay, I'm just lying around relaxing and Pat is playing Words With Friends; Duke and Florida State are playing on TV. Sounds relaxing right? But NOOOOOO. Jane has evidently started her preparation for March Madness and has been looking at the national rankings. OMG you would think Rick Santorum had been put on the Supreme Court! She evidently has not been paying enough attention to the basketball world outside the ACC. Murray State! She screams. What!? They are evidently ranked 12 and 14 in polls. According to the self proclaimed "expert" they have not played one decent team and they are ranked higher than, say, Florida State! This just drives her crazy. Harris Stowe, Morgan State, Tenn Temple, Alaska Anchorage..."do these schools have basketball teams", she screams. Florida State beat the crap out of the Tar Heels, came to Durham to beat Duke, and is now giving them a run for their money, but the "powerhouse" Murray State is playing Tennessee State.

Hope Everyone had a great Valentine's Day...
...Because I sure didn't. Pat and Jane left this morning early after giving each other cards, presents, and kisses. Nothing for me however. Really! Can you believe it? Not even a walk. So I stayed home all day and did nothing. They finally came home after going to a romantic lunch and an afternoon movie. Sounds like they are getting old with this afternoon stuff. Hiss, Boo.

a Katrina coup!
Okay, I am taking over this abandoned blog....What is with Jane? She is always mumbling and grumbling about something, but has gotten too lazy to put it in writing. Katrina to the rescue!!!! I will keep you up on the Pitt and of course the political wisdom that is born in Jane's mind and spews out of her mouth.
First of all I am ticked to the max about our walks/jogs. Pat and Jane have been going to someplace they call "the y", what the heck is that? At any rate Jane comes back all sweaty and whining and this has really cut back on the length of our outings. When we go for our long jogs I go wild...what do you expect a dog to do. Yesterday I got in big trouble for eating poop...no snacks all day. I just can't seem to give the stuff up.
Pat and Jane have been bemoaning the closing of the General Store Cafe downtown for about two weeks. I have walked by there several times and it looked like a really cool place with all the funky stuff and wonderful murals outside. Jane keeps saying that maybe someone will come along, take it over and reopen it. I must admit that I know nothing about business since I cannot read, I just know people all over the Triangle are upset because I heard Jane read an article to Pat from the N&O. (he hates it when she does that because he CAN read).
I have noticed that some new places have opened up. We have walked up to a new bakery where I get to wait outside while Jane goes in to get scones. I have absolutely no idea what that is, certainly does not sound like something you would eat. She says they are right out of the oven and we get home really fast. I have to listen to ummm, wonderful, best ever...I still prefer poop.
I have already made a change to that boring list of links like the NY Times; I have added my fav, Suri's Burnbook! It is soooo funny, nothing serious here. This blog is looking up now.
