exploding not an option.

My neighbors — you remember them…THE PRICKS are at it again.
I let my dog out this morning for her morning bark’n’pee and she was on full alert barking which means there is school started early and I missed the memo or there is a bird taunting her.

I opened my slider and walked out there waiting for my eyes to adjust and I see her on the top of the hill jumping around as if the circus of dogs were parading past her and she wanted to join.  She was SO excited because there was a blacktop full of kids playing basketball and she wanted to go play with them.  This was her first summer in our backyard and it’s been nearly 3 months since she has had kids to play with and have come pet her.

I’m about ready to call her name to have her come down because she’s going to have a doggie heart attack if she doesn’t and that is when I see it. THE PRICK next door shooting my dog with the hose!! “TAKE THAT!” he yells.
He is shooting the hose over the fence into my backyard where he is guessing she is. She wasn’t there, she was up further on the hill.

As the water is shooting over the fence I yell, “HALO! come on girl!” and the hose stops instantly. I let her back in the house and I stand up on a resin chair I have in the backyard and I wait for that prick to finish what he’s doing.
He is walking back towards his house and I yell his name. He looks up confused.
I say, “Can you let me know when you’re done working in your backyard?”
He gets the ‘i’msuchaprick’ look on his face and says, “Yeah, i’m about done. WHY?”
I tell him, “I want to know when it’s safe to let my dog back in the yard without her getting shot with the water hose for barking…LIKE DOGS DO! THEY BARK!”

He’s such an ass.

Add to the Susie prayer and pray my neighbors move out of this town…away from me!

and on the bright side of my fence: my phone, it broke in half. like HALF. SNAP. I get my new one today. It has a camera on it. What are the odds of that!!??
