Behold her beautiful singing voice!
Been too long since I’ve posted any pics of Tammy. I happened to catch her right in the midst of one of her yawns (which, it must be said, sound hilariously cute):
Tammy wants to sing to you…
Currently going through a bout of depression…
Actually, it’s a rapid-cycling episode that’s been going on for the past two days. I woke up yesterday morning, remembered that Dad was gone, went into sadness that suddenly plummeted into clinical depression (something that lacks any emotion whatsoever) and then got catapulted into a bout of mania where the sadness returned, got escalated beyond my ready grasp of things, and threw me into a somewhat paranoid state of mind.
This has been going on and off for the past 36 hours now.
So I’m looking forward to working backstage during tonight’s performance of Theatre Guild of Rockingham County’s production of It’s A Wonderful Life: The Musical. Three more performances this weekend: tonight, tomorrow night also at 7:30 and then Sunday afternoon at 2:30. Being involved in something like community theatre helps immensely, whether I’m on-stage or behind the scenes. That’s a really special group of people ...
Tammy Tuesday returns with an ear-full
After an absence of too many weeks, Tammy the Pup is back! That was my fault though: just been way busy on this end of things. And I’ve a few posts percolating in the ol’ gray matter that I’m gonna try to channel into reality the next coupl’a days.
But anyway, here’s Tammy, in a pose that is familiar to anybody who has ever owned a dachshund. I don’t think a day goes by that I don’t have to “reset” Tammy’s ears back to their factory default position. Here she is with both of hers about to get fixed…
This week’s Tammy Tuesday’s guest host is… Lucy!
So… this was supposed to be a Tammy Tuesday: the weekly pic of my mini dachshund. Unfortunately the little girl is feeling under the weather today! But don’t worry folks she’s got that mischievous glint in her eye which is already threatening to unleash havoc when she’s back to normal soon.
I didn’t want to make it three weeks without something though. It was my girlfriend Kristen who had the idea of letting her new Chihuahua Lucy fill in for Tammy. Lucy was in the back seat of my car yesterday when Kristen snapped this hilarious photo of her flashing a wry grin…
Incidentally, for those who remember when Kristen adopted those two Chihuahuas last month: well that’s Lucy and her son is now named Charlie. We’re hoping that Lucy and Charlie will get to meet Tammy sometime soon. If/when that happens I’ll be sure to post some ...
It’s the shifty-eyed Tammy Tuesday!
Zoinks!! This week’s Tammy Tuesday feature went down to the wire! It’s 11:56 p.m. when I’m finally able to getting to post it.
Well, don’t let it be said that I’m not the Hardest Working Man in the Blogosphere(tm)! Here’s a low-angle shot of Tammy, leering at the camera over the top of her doggie bed…

This week’s Tammy Tuesday is all wrapped up
Several months ago I came across a long piece of scrap fabric from my Children of Eden costume. It seemed like something Tammy would enjoy playing with. Ever since, there hasn’t been a day that goes by when we haven’t had a tug-of-war with it (and you would not believe how such a little dog can yank something soooo hard).
Here’s Tammy in one of her quieter moments with it, as she chews happily on a piece of deer antler…

Tammy Tuesday this week is brew-ing up trouble
So Tammy decided she wanted to try some beer…
She ultimately decided that she didn’t like it. After one whiff of the bottle, she ran away from it as hard as she could! Wish I could have gotten that on camera.
A friend made an observation: what kind of a German dog wouldn’t enjoy beer? I think the photo speaks for itself: it’s light beer that Tammy recoiled from, not a dark hearty pint of true ale.
Incidentally, with all of the interest in home-brewing lately, I’m considering making some beer myself. The thing is, I’ve never been able to develop a taste for the stuff. So I figured that’ll be one hobby which if I’m bad at, I’ll never have to know…...
This week’s Tammy Tuesday proved elusive
I tried, really tried, to snap a photo of Tammy wearing my new sunglasses. But she adamantly refused to cooperate.
So here she is running around the house, sneaking under the dining room table, no doubt looking for trouble…
I know: pretty disappointing as a photo. Maybe she’ll give us a better show next week....
Tammy Tuesday this week is too snug and cozy to care
I snapped this picture of Tammy at about 4:30 in the morning. On most nights she jumps onto the recliner and pulls this blanket over herself and goes to sleep. On this particular morning she woke up, looked around, didn’t see anything to get interested in for the moment, and then pulled her head back under the covers and went back to dozing…

It’s a sunbathing pup as Tammy Tuesday returns!
All right gang, I’m gonna try to get back into the swing of things on this blog. First up: another dose of that very-cute-but-terribly-mischievous miniature dachshund, Tammy. Who has lately demonstrated that she’s getting much better behaved! If only she wouldn’t jump out of nowhere to bite at my ankles every so often…
So today I took her outside so she could do her “doggie business” and the first thing she wanted to do was head to her favorite place in the yard. I don’t know what it’s allure is, but there’s this one little area of lawn that Tammy will go to, lay down and often roll on her back and enjoy the warmth of the sun shining on it. I guess it’s just her “layin’ spot”.
Here she is enjoying the early summer sunshine…
