Sleeping on the couch

Two weeks and counting.

That’s how long I’ve been sleeping on my couch.  Not that I’m complaining.

Why am I sleeping on the couch, you may ask?  Well, if you have been reading my blog, you know that I have a newborn daughter,  That is not the problem.  The problem is, I have a dog.  And now just any dog, but a livable Daschund, who drives me crazy.

Anyway, people have this misconception that wiener dogs are sweet dogs.  They are not.  They are borderline psychotic.  Not mean.  Just a little crazy.  They (I do not know who they are, mind you) that Daschunds are responsible for the most dog bites every year.  This isn’t common knowledge because no one goes to the hospital for a weiner dog bite, so the actual count is not very high.  But they bite.  A lot.  Because they are crazy, temperamental little beasts with inferiority complexes.

How does this relate to me sleeping on the couch?  With my wife nursing, we don’t feel cofmortbale with the dog on the bed.  I don’t think the dog would maul the baby.  Or hurt the baby.  Not intentionally, anyway.   But every so often you read a story about a Daschund chewing off a baby’s toes, or soemthign else horrible like that.  So better safe than sorry. 

So for now, it’s me and the dog on the couch

He keeps me warm so I can’t really complain.
