The Middle Name Meme


I got tagged by Dragonheart and Mickey Mantle for the middle name meme.

Here are the rules:
1. Post the rules before you give the facts.


2. List one fact that is somehow relevant to you and your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.

3. When you are tagged you need to write your post using your middle name and facts about it.

4. At the end of your post, choose one cat to tag for each letter of your middle name. Be sure to let each cat know she/he has been tagged. (It's okay if you don't do this... tag who you want to tag!)

My middle name is Theodore. Here goes...

T - True - I'm true to my mom through and through. If she's home, 9 times out of 10, I'm within three feet of her.

H - Hairy - I like to leave my furs all over the place. And shedding season is about to start again. Sweet!

E - Eater - I'm an indiscriminate a competitive eater. Mom saw a picture of a dawg eating corn on the cob today and asked Dad if he remembered the first (and last) time that I had corn on the cob. He said," Yeah, the time he ate three ears of corn, cob and all, and then threw it all up two days later? Yeah, I remember that." The best part is that they didn't even know I ate all that corn until two days later when I saw it for the second time, if you know what I mean. And to think that Mom was just about to take me to the V-E-T because I was growly and not acting right. I really think that it was the foil that the corn was wrapped in that made me sick. Foil is way worse for tummies than corn on the cob, right?

O - (un)Ornery - I'm about the mellowest dawg you'll ever meet. I don't bark unless I have to and even then, well, there better be a good reason. I much prefer ear scritches and tummy rubs. The only time I get really grumpy is if my tummy is sick. If I'm growling, Mom knows I don't feel well.

D - Dawg - I'm a dawg. And I like to do dawggie things - take walks, pee on our mailbox (Mom won't let me pee on anyone else's mailbox. Except for the mean guy's house at the corner. She lets me go crazy there. hee hee), chase squirrels and rabbits (sorry, Fiona - I'm really embarrassed about that), and eat gross stuff in the yard.

O -Outside - I like to be outside any time -except if it's pouring rain. I love to lay in the grass and soak up the sun. I like listening to the birdies and smelling all the neighborhood smells.

R -Rare - Mom says I'm a rare breed (and not just because she has no idea what breed I am). She's never had a dawg quite like me and she knows that I'm definitely one of a kind. She always tells me how lucky she is that I came into her and Dad's life.

E -Expressive Ears - They are white and pink and froot batty. Mom loves to play with them. She can tell how I'm feeling by what my ears are doing. If I'm relaxed, I can make them stick straight out from the sides of my head (Mom calls this Yoda Ears). Or if I'm a little nervous, I can make them look very, very tall by making them stick right out the top of my head. Or if I don't feel all that great (like after some competitve eating), I can make them very droopy.


Oh crap, I just read #4. Grrrrrr
