Happy Birthday to Rocky!

List no. 1 :: 14 things about Rocky for his 14th birthday.

1. He has lived in Pittsburgh, Brooklyn and Santa Fe. 
2. He is a binge eater and before I understood this, he gained too much weight. Ten years ago, he weighed 20 pounds. Now he's somewhere around 11 or 12 pounds.
3. He's had x-rays and an ultra sound.
4. He likes to hang out in the bathtub and drink out of the faucet.
5. He had fleas one time in Pittsburgh and I would guess it was probably one of the most miserable times of his life.
6. Sometimes he likes to play in the snow.
7. He loves to go outside and roll in the dirt.
8. During the winter, his favorite spot is his own bed.
9. Sometimes he fights with his brother. And sometimes they hang out together.
10. He loves to hang out with Will when he's grilling outside or cooking in the kitchen.
11. He loves to do face plants when he's sleeping and sometimes he likes to let it all hang out.
12. True to his name, he used to get into a lot of fights, but he's retired now.
13. He loves napping, looking out the window, pulling dustballs out from under things, but most of all, he loves eating.
14. Years ago when we had a mouse problem, he woke me up in the middle of the night just in time to see a mouse tail hanging out of his mouth.

He is my love and my joy and he makes me smile every single day. And I've written all of this before!
