Things I Love Thursday
[ 24 August 2007 ]
Dachshunds; the promise of spring; blue skies; pink blossoms; Japan (always); delicate sweets; new eye-wear; making birthday wishlists (stay tuned!); going on chocolate dates with cute friends; wearing lots of lip gloss & smiling at everyone; palm trees; dreaming of America; Black Rock City (wish I was there!); really high heels; weird people who ask if my hair is “real” & if they can “touch it”; kissing my boyfriend; back massages; hiding treats all around the house; hot pink Post It notes; matching underwear; marshmallow beds; people who write sweet emails; sending postcards; sparkly anything!
Here are links to the photos above:

I just have to know how you respond to the people who want to touch your hair! Do you let them??
Haha! Yes, I do… but only if they look clean! I’m a bit of a prude in that respect ;D It’s usually hard for me to not look at them like “are you kidding?!” though!
i want a little sausagey dog so badly
sarah — Me too! I am ga-ga over them. Seriously, looking at pages of photos of them on Flickr makes me TEARY. Tragic!
I am absolutely in love with the photo of the girl sitting inside the suitcase…because I have an identical suitcase to that. :-D
I once saw Keith from The Prodigy (remember them?) in Chapel St. I asked if I could touch his hair and he let me! It was that beautiful fire orange at the time.
Kat! — That’s awesome! I was just surprised when the girl asked me if it was real, like, “does it look like a wig?!”. & I love the Prodigy! I listen to them all the time, mostly their later stuff. It’s my super-productive music!
DASCHUNDS!!! i want three. they are the CUTEST THINGS EVER, they make me go so stupid and gooey
grace — I am obsessed with them, I keep thinking about how CUTE it would be to take daily outfit photos with it in the frame. Aaaahhhh!
When I had my hair cut in an a-line bob with a pointy fringe, people would fairly frequently ask me if it was a wig. I could never decide whether to be flattered or insulted. :P
These beautiful Thursday pictures make me very happy!
My boy has a Dachshunds named Copper.
And he listens to me more often than my boy.
I tell everybody he’s MY dog.

Gala and friends
For your viewing pleasure, please let me introduce my “hund” Badger – http://www.flickr.com/photos/9807645@N02/sets/72157601595559682/
Ta Da!
He’s a wire-haired Dachshund in case you were curious. His nickname is Badger Bean or The Bean. And he’s the most friendly dog alive. He even does therapy work in nursing homes.
We heart him!
Luv
Poochie

Proudly owned by Obi! here he is on my flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thisdaylastyear/sets/72157594498558035/
Dachshunds are the most underrated dog ever, I swear. They are so full of personality I wonder how anyone could ever share another breed with their company.
If I’m walking him down the street a lot of people call out “OMG SAUSAGE DOG!” which is probably one of my most hated of pet hates, just because they’re NOT A SAUSAGE DOG! Well they are, but THEY WERE BRED TO HUNT! they can do all sorts of other awesome things, like I have just taught Obi to dance on his hind legs and he looks so cute but they have instincts and they’re not just like any other designer mashup breed.

I’m glad that the Dachshund love is spreading though :D
Nadia — I know the feeling ;D I choose to take as, “Wow, your hair is so unreal it could be fake!” & I like that!
Jamie — I wish I knew someone with a dog that I could look after while they were at work, or something!
Poochie — Man, that is a cute dog. Awwww!
Shannon — I can’t believe that Obi dances on his hind legs! That is soooo cute. I would probably be even more obnoxious than usual (!!!) if I had a dog. I would buy him a cute collar (I saw one which was neon rainbow patterned which I love) & kiss him 24/7. My boyfriend is anti-dogs-in-bed though which makes me sad!
What a cute pooch!
