Check out my BlogPaws swag…

Can you believe what I got in my swag bag at BlogPaws?

 

Just kidding! This little guy, although adorable and riding in a bag, was not part of my swag. He was an adorable pup at the event looking for a forever home.  It took all of my willpower not to smuggle him home and surprise Bella and the hub with a new addition.  All in good time…

(You can check this pup – and many other animals needing a home in the D.C. metro area – out over at Lucky Dog Animal Rescue.)

Don’t get me wrong – although it (rightfully) didn’t include a puppy, the swag bags were pretty darn sweet:

In case you were wondering, I had an absolutely amazing time at BlogPaws.  I got the chance to meet (and spend time with) some of my favorite bloggers, discover new bloggers, learn a bunch, and have a ton of fun.  You can expect a plethora of posts in the future – I intend to recap the weekend, share some of the tips I’ve learned, and tell you all about it!  Stay tuned…

Hope everyone affected by Irene came through the storm okay.  We lost power around 2:30 this morning, but it came back this morning, so I can’t complain.  What a weekend!

Friday I’m in love (with BlogPaws)

Today, I’m at BlogPaws!  However, I couldn’t just leave you hanging on No Frown Friday.  It just wouldn’t be right if I didn’t send you into the weekend as usual… so let’s get to it!

  1. As always, we begin with a pun… Tina Spay.  (I’m obviously in 30 Rock withdrawal.)
  2. Speaking of wordplay… if I ever need a Cat Scan, I hope I get this type.  Way better than the traditional kind.
  3. Speaking of Cat Scans… if all goes according to plan, I’ve met some of my favorite bloggers by now.  (If you’re there… say hi!)  Maybe I will ask those who are vets if this cartoon actually depicts a teaching animal hospital.  I have a feeling that it does not.
  4. Next, I give you cats with mustaches.  No wordplay or brilliant segue needed.
  5. Apparently the MTV Video Music Awards are this weekend.  (Kind of funny, considering that I can’t remember the last time I saw a video on MTV.)  Anyway, I would be much more likely to watch the VMAs if they really did have puppies on hand to impersonate the various presenters and winners.
  6. Finally, what happens if your toddler decides the dog needs a new ‘do?  Hilarity, that’s what.

No video today – it’s been a crazy week!  However, if you aren’t at BlogPaws, but want to keep up with the action, you can follow me on Twitter.  (I’m not sophisticated enough to blog from the event itself, but Twitter I can handle.)  I’ll be using the hashtag #Blogpaws.  Stay tuned for a full blog recap next week.  Happy weekend!
