A couple of days ago, Pig vomited twice. First time, it was a bit of poop - like a large pat of butter's worth of poop. Second time, it was not quite poop, but was a log of what can only be described as densely entangled mulch (fiber, wood, carpet, hair, leaves, plastic clothing tag) - roughly the size of a large banana. Or small eggplant. Yeah. Called the vet, haven't gotten a hold of him yet, but I'm sure he'll inevitably tell me that's it's not possible to vomit poop. My guess is that she's just eating bunches of indigestible crap that swirl around in stomach and head into her bowels until it gets clogged and she barfs it up. Poor freaky Pig. May have to start walking her with a muzzle.

If you haven't yet, check out the Ricky Gervais Show podcasts, starring Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington. Hysterical. You can get them on itunes in the audiobooks section. Best $6 I've spent in a long time. Although I do suspect they're making me "think dumb" if that's possible. After awhile, I feel like I'm actually thinking like Karl Pilkington, who's known as the "global idiot."

I've been subjecting Max to a lot of Columbo lately. He actually likes the show too! Last week we watched The Best Columbo Ever. I plan on writing a fan letter to the writer of that episode - his name is Peter Fischer. I think he'd get a kick out of it, knowing how an episode of something he wrote a gabillion years ago could still be so deeply appreciated today.

So many good finales to watch in the next few weeks. Flavor of Love AND Project Runway!
