Music

I do not like it when mommy and daddy do things without me. I should be a participant in every single activity. Mommy and daddy were playing Guitar Hero this afternoon. (Mommy was playing drums, which was sort of weird since she's not very good on drums, but I digress). Anyways, I tried my hardest to get some attention -- or at least to be able to play too. I tried playing with the guitar and then I tried the drumsticks. Nothing seemed to get their attention. Finally I had to take matters into my own hands (er, paws) and took the remote control. I switched it from "play game" to "listen to CD" and music from my favorite CD, Songs to Make Dogs Happy, came on. (I'm particularly partial to "Squeaky Deakey")

To say that daddy was not happy would be an understatement. Apparently he was doing really well on the game. How was I to know? BTW -- this isn't the first time I'm employed the technique of changing to "listen to CD" in order to get attention. It seems to work well and I highly recommend it to any other dogs out there.
