Dogsitting

Hey look! I'm dogsitting!
Hey look what else!
A car drove through the backyard fence last night an hour after I started dogsitting! Awesome. I'm dogsitting 6 dogs (and 3 rats and 2 snakes) in what used to be the Dean's house for TWU. There are a lot of college people and college cars around. One such college people and one such college car had the misfortune of punching a hole in the fence last night, and these six dogs take great joy in escaping.

I've fixed it as best as I can, but unfortunately the tipsy foreign student left me a bogus number last night, so I don't know who is gonna repair the fence now. Notice how one of the posts is completely backwards and sewn in so as to remain standing. Notice how 6 more posts are completely askew and have just been crammed back onto the fence. Notice how two more posts on the edges are irreparably damaged and also need to be replaced.

Also, notice how after all that I still had to lay some chairs in the way so I didn't lose all of the freakin' dogs again. The hole was big enough that even the Saint Bernard mix was able to run straight through the fence without crouching or even thinking about it.

  1. Well, you can't say that it is boring!
    So you don't get said college student's license plate number?

  2. No, it was 12:30am and I was trying to keep the dogs from running away. They were also barking so loud that I think half of the neighborhood woke up (I saw people come outside, dreary, to see what was going on).
