Grumpy Dog
« on: June 04, 2013, 11:13:44 PM »

I am a Grumpy Dog tonight.

My knee hurts like hell. I found a couple of Lortabs left over from last year's knee surgery, but they didn't help.

I didn't go shopping today, because my knee hurt, so I don't have anything fun and easy in the cupboard or refrigerator. No chocolate either. Eating a bowl of green beans would not improve my mood.

I didn't even open the folder on my Western novel tonight. I would probably write something like, Bass Reeves drew his .45, held it sideways, pointed it at the schoolmarm, and yelled out, "I'm gonna bust a cap in yo' pasty ass, bitch!" And it would not be good for my protagonist to go gangsta. I don't want to read it tomorrow and have to rewrite the dialog.

On the plus side, Velvet is snoring at my feet, which always puts a smile on my face.

Maybe a bourbon and cigar will de-grumpify me.

How is the knee today, BD?  Did some bourbon help?  Grumpy cat looks especially pissed off in your pic.

Bourbon and the Lortabs helped me get to sleep last night. I called my orthopedic surgeon this morning and made an appointment.

You're right. The Grumpy was strong with that one!

Did you hurt it?

My left knee just started giving me fits lately and I haven't done anything to hurt it. Don't know what's going on. ???????

Yes. I've had two surgeries on my left knee in the past 3 years, and get regular SynVisc injections in both knees. I'll be getting at least one total knee replacement sometime soon.

Sorry about your problems Big Dog.

By the way, I happened to see the photo below today on the net. Do you know this dog?
