Slightly Dog Obsessed
April 13, 2008Guess what this post is on..Dogs! Surprised? I might be a scoche dog obsessed right now! Its been about ummm lets see, we moved here in ‘85, so 23 years since I’ve owned a dog. I’m entitled!
Ok Mae and I were talking about dog names tonight and we found the PERFECT one. I can’t wait to share. Mrs. Lilac and Tipp will definitely get the meaning, lets see who else will!
First, you have to know the options we went through, because they are pretty damn funny.
Mid-last week we decided we were naming our dog a ghetto rapper name
Ludacris
Lil Kim
Snoop
Fat Joe
Then today after we met cutie cuterson we thought about using
Guiseppi (my sister would have cried with laughter at this one)
Arturo (think overboard…Katarina! Arturo!)
Meatpie (that was my brother)
Still later today we decided we were going to use some obscure Beatles reference
Gideon
Rocky
Nothing was right!!! Then I thought of it! I looked up Mae’s favorite book (I’m not going to tell you what it is because I want to see how many recognize the name)..and we picked the PERFECT name
ATTICUS FINCH
Isn’t that cute! You get a prize if you read that entire post! And another prize if you know the book! Unfortunately the prize is listening to me yammer about this dog some more!
Tipp, I might be rivaling you for dog posts…
Mae, there you go..it’s sealed in cement..or binary code…LOVE YOU!! Thank you so much, I couldn’t ask for a better friend!

Ahhh- “To Kill A Mockingbird”….does this mean you’re sending the puppy to law school??
Mrs. Lilac..I love you! We will have to have a dinner at Mae’s to meet little Attie…
And oh my goodness- we can go to the dog park with my poodle, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and have a literary-dog play date! How fancy are we?!
Mrs. Lilac, we can have tea and scones with our fancy literary dogs!
Absolutely, dahling- I’ll bring the clotted cream and the lemon curd. I guess I need to shop for a new hat and some gloves now.
i guess if i would have kept reading i would have found out his name
good choice!
