Another exhausting day...

{Pearl} - Yesterday was another exhausting day. I didn't even have time to take my three afternoon naps. The humans threw me in the truck and we drove all morning to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Well, ok, I LOVE THE BEACH - but then when we get there it turns out this is a SPECIAL beach where dogs are not allowed. They didn't even want me on the boardwalk. I had to sit on the bench. Yeah, that's what the cop said. It was ok for me to sit on the bench but I could not walk on the sand or on the boardwalk. (So they don't want my clean feet on the ground but it's ok to have my dirty butt on a human bench. Ok, whatever.)

While the humans went into a restaurant, they left me tied up outside. But it was ok. I got scraps (they threw 'em through the bars just like I was in prison, grrrr). Roast beef from the sandwiches, and other tasty stuff. It was ok. 

Plus, while I sat there, there were LOTS of people who stopped by to adore me. So I got plenty of attention at the restaurant, and wherever I went all day long. There were lots of little girls and boys who wanted their faces licked. Plus lots of adults to do the usual "Oooooooh, what a cute Pug you have!" (morons).  "Oooooooh, he has two different colored eyes!" (same old story)

I love it when somebody says "Does your dog bite?"  Yeah, right. If I rode all the way to the beach in bumper to bumper traffic in a hot truck and didn't bite one of these humans in the backseat who gave me NO ROOM to stretch out, I'm sure as heck not going to bite you for just petting me here on the sidewalk.  Humans can be stupid sometimes.  Do I look dangerous to you??

On our way back to the truck to leave the beach, some gal fawned all over me and took my picture. Yeah, that's right, I'm cute enough to go in your photo album. "Cheese!"

I couldn't get any sleep on the way back. Those seat-hogging guys in the back kept elbowing me. Grrrrrrrr.
