Gilles Marini, always my Monday Man Candy.

I did not go to the pet store with the intention of bringing home a pet. I prefer it when the animals who need a home come to me. But this one… well, I had seen her before and thought she looked sad and lonely all by herself in the big cage. The second time I saw her huddled over the food bowl and giving me that soulful gaze, I couldn’t resist. Especially when they said she came from another store because they weren’t able to sell her. So sad. She’s a lineolated parakeet. Quite shy so far, but once in awhile she breaks into song. Hopefully she’ll fit in with the rest of the menagerie…

(She doesn’t have a name yet. Mabel and Bella have been suggested. Additional suggestions welcome. I really should name this baby.)

I have finally figured out how to upload videos from my camera to my computer and then from my computer to YouTube. I haven’t yet figured out how to upload videos directly to my blog, though. Here is my test video-- a snippet from my daily ride around the block with Henry. Please note how he loses interest about halfway through. I do love it when he howls, though. (Sadly, most of my videos are as boring as this one.)

I’d dance… or anything else… with Gilles Marini. My Man Candy Monday contribution is the sexy French actor known as the “naked guy” in the Sex and the City movie and is now the Superman to watch on Dancing with the Stars. Delicious, isn’t he?

This was Henry’s trip to the vet last Friday. Henry is a bit perturbed by the pink E-collar, but I have assured him he looks quite dashing. Yes, I was taking pictures while I was driving. He was just too cute not to.
