Ok, so my boyfriend Jared is busy sweeping the front hallway. Boston is trying REALLY hard to help, but Dad just keeps telling her to go away! Dad gets a nice big pile ready to sweep into the dustpan. Boston is trying to save Dad time by just EATING the contents of the pile. (Most of it is, afterall, her hair…)
Conversation:
Jared: Boston! Get away from that pile!
Me: She’s just hungry. Give her a treat
Jared: (walking to the fridge to get a brussel sprout) And mom says your not spoiled! Your being naughty, so you get a treat for it!!!
Me: *smiles and walks away…*
It’s like you read Bostons mind! hehe. I can just imagine him having swept Boston into the dustpan along with the hair.
Gee, wish MY bunnies would help ME with the sweeping!
When I’m trying to pick up their hair I either get charged, grunted at or bit.
Brussel sprouts? And Boston considers THESE treats? @_@
BTW, how do you get the bf to do the housework? Do you threaten him with brussel sprouts? xD
Jersey–at one point, Boston sat down in the dustpan. I seriously think she knew that she was annoying him!!!
Mimz….it was Jared’s day off! And I had been up since 5 AM and was super crabby…I think he was trying to make me not so crabby! It worked….cuz he did the dishes too lol!
And oh, yes, Boston loves brussel sprouts….well actually Boston loves anything digestable!
How cute. trying to help Da. Well mine eat arugula I think that is worse than brussell sprouts. Brussel Sprouts stink when you cook them.
Rabbits sure like weird smelling stuff. The just love that arugula though eeeewwww.
Yeah Boston tell Da if he doesnt’ help Ma he will get brussel sprouts for supper.
And you 2 can share.
I don’t cook the brussel sprouts…she likes em raw and cold! In the summer I got frozen ones for her, she liked that too.
yeah, dad doesn’t like sprouts, thats for sure….but he’s the manager of pizza hut….so i can threaten w/ brussel sprouts….but hes got other options!
Hogeeze, I used to love going to Pizza Hut. But the hubby has his own pizzeria now, so…(plus I like to make my own, it turns out nice and fluffy!) ^_^
Justina how do you keep Bosty from getting gas from the sprouts? I would think she’d be jetting all over the house after a batch of those!
OH, and just a little OT…Jared plays XBOX, right? Does he play Call of Duty? (the hubby is really into it now and I try to warn people I know that I care about keeping as friends…lolz) xD
BTW, how do you get the bf to do the housework? Do you threaten him with brussel sprouts? xD
Oh man, for some reason that made me laugh like an idiot! (I also just typoed the word “idiot” like six times… twice). Le sigh.
I actually don’t even like the hut all that much, lol! but i’ve been working there for almost 4 years, thats probably why! I looooove papa johns, but i’d rather have homemade anyday….express package my way, Mimz??
Jared does play xbox—not xbox 360—but plain old xbox…its broken and instead of using hte $80 it will cost to fix it toward a new and improved unit, he’s getting it fixed cuz all his games are saved on it! lol….hes not into the action type games…..he plays 4 games—Madden ’08, a college football one, a college bball one and a baseball once—depending on what sports season we are in!
His brother is addicted to COD though. its all he EVER talks about!
oh yeah, and i’m not sure if the brussel sprouts cause Boston gas….i’ve never noticed, but now i’m sure i will start paying attention! How will i tell??
I’ve found mine are fine with brussel sprouts too. You can tell its gas because you’ll hear loud gurgling and she’ll generally be sitting in an angry loaf position adjsuting a lot.
I’ll never forget how Mimzy thumped at me to get him some medicine for his tummy once. (his gurgling was so loud I could hear it clear across the room!) Which must’ve been all the more painful I’m sure! 0_o
But Lesley’s correct, they tend to hunch themselves into a loaf position and usually don’t want to move at all. Plus a lack of droppings sometimes occurs.
Yuh, my son and hubby are both into COD and lots of other XBOX 360 shooters. I miss the days when we all just played MarioKart together. ![]()
lol mimz….i wish jared would just get a wii so that we had something to play together…i’m not all about xbox footbal!!
Im with you mimzmum, i miss old fashion nintendo, My mans also into xbox 360 and the controls are just beyound me.
Allenj1, i used to work at pizza hut to, it was horrable!!! I cant stomach there food after working in the kitchen and seeing the amount of grease they use….Also how do you get your man to do cleaning?! Mine never will! XD I Think hed sweep my bunny if they sat on the dust pan
Allenj1, it would appear both you and Boston have Jared whipped
That’s quite a feat. Haha.
lol xParadise…that is toooo funny!
The other day I was talking about how Boston has a strong personality and she wants to do things in her own way, in her own time….Jared looks and me and says “Grrreeeat, just what I need. 2 picky women in my life!” lol he loves it!
tiger.lily…..you might not mind the hut now. They are going for a more healthy appeal and actually cutting down on much of the grease! I still only eat thin crust though!l lol
