About Me

I was diagnosed with nasal Chondrosarcoma in January 2008 and completed a month of radiation treatment. It destroyed my ability to produce tears in my left eye, and during treatment they found several lumps that had to be biopsied, but now I'm past the nasty side effects of radiation and have hair on my face again, life is getting back to normal. I probably won't ever be able to breathe out of my nose normally again, but I've discovered that holding a ball in my mouth makes a nice breathing passage. I have a 1-2 year prognosis and I get to go with everywhere, and I haven't been left home alone since December of last year. We just moved to a cool apartment in Hancock Park, L.A. that's big enough for indoor fetch, and has really big windows I can look out of without standing on my hind feet. Also, I have my own couch. And I get cheese sprinkled on my food every night.

My Interests

napping on Lindsay's bed (specifically her pillows - ooooh i love pillows), barking, chewing, eating, snuggling, going 'with', riding in cars, playing fetch, chasing things that run.

I'd like to meet:

whoever invented beef jerkey, and pretty much everyone else. cats and ferrets included.

Music:

i don't like loud music. classical makes for best napping.

Movies:

the march of the penguins, National Geographic Specials that have gone to video. History Channel Specials about the the dogs of war (so heroic!).

Television:

Animal Planet (except that annoying funniest animals show, i am so much cuter, and the animal abuse cops - too sad) the National Geographic Channel, nature shows with lots of interesting sounds.

Books:

well, really expensive and boring textbooks seem to taste the best, but anything needed or really interesting. Elizabeth Marshall Thomas is my favorite author. i just read Marley and Me and i also liked 'how to train your cat' some of actually worked!

Heroes:

Marmaduke, Hobbes (of Calvin and Hobbes), Triumph the insult comic dog, the mountain search and rescue dogs at ski resorts.
