In my office. Gaby is currently napping on Mickey's old bed. King is flat out in his corner--he's waaay past his morning nap. Gaby is, I hope, running some excitement out of her system, and will slow down a little when that's spent. They've been going on and off, mostly on, since about 6am. I don't think King has had this much activity in a year.

Gaby does not appear to be a climber or a jumper. Time will tell if she has the digging gene--I really, really hope not. No signs so far, But it's only been 18 hours.

She has already learned that if you go to the baker's rack and sit after you come inside, you get a cookie.

Oops--King moved. He had a scratch to itch. That noise woke up Gaby, who went out to the kitchen to check whatever, then came back and lay down. So I have two watchers now.

I need a Gaby icon.

Went to the vet's office to fill out the adoption contract for Gaby. While I was there, an older couple came in--the office has a sign advertising adoptions, and the couple wanted to find out what was available. What were they looking for? A female dog, preferably a couple of years old.

They would've snapped Gaby up like *that*. The tech pretty much said what others have said, that Gaby has that Benji/Disney Dog look. She knew they'd have no trouble finding a home for her.

In other news, still working out how to spell Gaby's name. I prefer one 'b', but her official hospital record shows it with 'bb'. So officially, she'll be Gabby, but as far as I'm concerned, she's Gaby. Short for Gabrielle, Xena's sidekick.
