a.k.a. It’s not over yet. Last night when I was doing the nightly pillow-moving routine before going to bed, Frica came in and did a little digging at the part of Watson’s bed under my bed. Then she noticed the yellow alien that was now on the floor next to purple one close to [...]

The End of the Alien Era? 02/04/08
Today Frica has shown minimal interest in the yellow alien with the most being to rush into the bedroom when I stepped it and it let out a loud squeak. It was outside Watson’s bed on the floor and I didn’t see it when I was making my bed. Scared me half to death! Once [...]
Of Aliens and Puppies 02/03/08
The yellow alien was once again/still in Watson’s bed when I got up this morning. Later, when Fric came into the bedroom, she went over to his bed and dug at the bed around its perimeter thereby again creating a nest with the alien in the middle of it. Then she left the room and [...]
Alien Consciousness 02/03/08
Later yesterday I had to go into the bedroom for something and when Fric followed me in, I decided to show her the alien in the dogged to see what she’d do. As soon as I picked it up, she became very alert and jumped up on the bed, I assume to get closer to [...]
All Quiet on the Alien Front 02/02/08
To my knowledge there was zero alien movement since my last report. Perhaps this has something to do with the puppies eyes opening. It could also be because whatever the hormonal changes were that were fueling it have declined along with Frica’s vaginal discharge. Or it could be that she found the ultimate location for [...]

Of Puppy Eyes and Aliens 01-31-08
Big news!
Well, OK, big news if you don’t have a life: the puppies eyes are starting to open. I turned around to look in the box while the laptop was booting up and saw one little puppy eye squinting at me for a split second before it shut again.
In the realm of on-going [...]
Almost Quiet on the Alien Front 01-30-08
There was no activity in Alien Land yesterday until I opened my bedroom door in the late afternoon. After that, I noticed that Frica had moved the yellow alien to the rug in front of the pen. However, it was back in bed with me when I woke up around 11 because the little female [...]
Tuesday’s Aliens are… 01-29-08
…pretty quiet. Only the yellow one has moved in the past 18 hours. Frica brought it down when I came downstairs yesterday around noon to get ready to go see a client, and it was still on the rug when I got home at 4:30. As the puppies have fallen into a routine [...]
