ZOMG UMBRELLAS!

My French-Canadian umbrella arrived today. I got it in navy, with silver screenprinted text. It is the most lovely thing, and it makes me almost wish it were raining. It has a solid wood handle and wood tips and should stand up to the Chicago winds.

I'm going to try and bring this back, friends, really I promise.

Spring Showers

It has been raining a lot lately, since it is spring. And someone developed the easiest way for you to make your dog terrified of an umbrella- The Pet Umbrella!

I actually am recommending that all pet owners get one of these, mainly because I want to see someone try to hold an umbrella over themselves, hold one over their dog, and pick up after their dog all during a blustery storm. Bonus amusement points for trying to get coffee, mail, or opening doors. Extra bonus points when I see your dog get all snorfy in a muddy puddle, since it is a dog and there is a 110% chance of puddle snorfing.
