Beaumont: Seriously? Why do you do it? Me: Do what? Beau: Oh don't you give me that innocent look. You know exactly what I'm talking about. Me: Um.... you mean your beautiful haircut? Beau: Ain't nothin' beautiful about it. It's a crying shame. Me: Don't be so sensitive. You'll be much cooler for the rest of summer. Beau: Have you noticed... Continue Reading →
You’re Kidding, Right?
Beaumont: So.... let me get this straight. You trick me into thinking we're going to the park and then you bring me to the Vets? Me: I didn't trick you. We went to the park earlier. Beau: Yeah, but you didn't tell me this was next! Me: Stop complaining. It's for your own good. Beau: Getting stuck with needles... Continue Reading →
What Now?
Me: Beaumont... Beau: Oh Dawg... What now? Me: You know exactly what I mean. Beau: Hey lady. I'm just a dawg. You gotta spell it out. Me: How many times do we have to have this conversation?

It’s a Dawg’s World
Beaumont: So.... explain to me again... why is she here? Me: Because her mom and dad are away. Beau: That still doesn't explain why she's HERE. In my home. Me: She had nowhere else to go. Beau: She could have gone to a cat spa. Or maybe, camped out along the river. Me: Beau. That's not nice. Beau: It's not nice having... Continue Reading →
You move. You lose.
Me: Excuse me... I just got up to get a coffee. I was planning on coming back to bed. Beau: You move. You lose. Me: Beaumont. I'd like to come back to bed please.

Don’t bother coming home. I’m having a good time
Me: Well you look rather happy. Beaumont: That's because I am. Me: You're welcome. Beau: What for? Me: I'm the one who suggested to your dad he ask Tamz to come and stay with you while he came out to the coast to join me. Beau: Well that was a no-brainer. Me: He could have put you in a...

You never call.
Beaumont: So... you go off on a trip and forget all about me? Me: I haven't forgotten about you. I've just been visiting and having fun. Beau: And drinking a whole lot of wine from the looks of it.

The not so little lap dog.
Me: Beau. You know you're not a lapdog, right? Beau: Says who? Me: Says me. You're too big to be a lapdog. Beau: You must be mistaken. I seem to fit just fine on this chair. Me: You're sitting on me. Beau: What's your point? Me: You're heavy. Beau: Then maybe you should have moved before I climbed up into the chair.... Continue Reading →
This Dawg’s Got Too Much Sense
Beaumont: Um.... just because you spent the day yesterday as a wild dandelion woman doesn't mean I have to become a dandelion pooch today! Me: C'mon Beau! Where's your sense of adventure?

It’s All About Cats and Dogs.
Me: Beaumont. Leave the cat alone. Beau: Maybe if she wasn't here I wouldn't be so pestered by her and you wouldn't have to be reminding me to leave her alone. Me: She's only here for the weekend. Beau: I thought I told you I didn't want her to come back after the last time. Me: I thought... Continue Reading →
