Friday Dog Blogging: Mechanic Dog Edition

While originally optimistic about being helpful and changing my oil, Theodore is quickly frustrated when he realizes he doesn't have the manual dexterity the job requires and decides to just relax with his Frisbee.


Dell, despite their lack of trying to fail, managed to get my laptop back to me just in time for Friday Dog Blogging. How where they trying to fail? They shipped it to my prior address. Where the laptop was shipped to 3 years ago when I bought it. Because that makes sense. Never mind that the box to send it back was sent to my new house, and that DHL went to my new house to pick it up. I spent 2 hours on the phone trying to correct this issue when I saw on the DHL website where it was being shipped to. I was transferred around 3 times, disconnected, and eventually my demeanor bordered on irate. I was promised the issue was fixed and that it would be delivered to the correct address (a day late). Then I received the "confirmation e-mail" from DHL which informed me that the laptop had been delivered. To the wrong address.

I hope the car was supported by wooden blocks so it didn't accidentally fall off and crush Teddy. Clearly, that dog doesn't know the first rule of safety when hanging out under a car.

Just have to say I LOVE Theodore and his Friday blogs. Yes, I'm lame and cannot have a dog - so I love yours.

Have a good weekend!
