the miserable gardener 
You do look lost in thought. Resolve for more biscuits, perhaps? or more brie? We all know you are not a drinking dog; otherwise, your pose resembles a purebred border collie suffering a hangover. Oh. Perhaps you did overdo the biscuits and brie. No, I’m going with lost in thought — how can the perfect dog improve? Impossible, just like degrees of unique.
Perfect, yes, I like that, thank you. I lie around a lot. When it became the guy I live with’s responsibility to take care of me and my buddy Slipper, he called his sister to ask if dogs lie around a lot. She said they did. And we do. In my defense, there isn’t a whole lot to do right now, except watch the guy make his New Year’s resolutions. He hasn’t started yet, though.
Happy New Year Chess, the perfect pose for new years day, for the perfect Border Collie…
Thanks, same to you. Someone has to make sure the kitchen rug stays put, don’t they? On our walk this afternoon we had a blizzard, of graupel. It only lasted as long as the walk, but the guy I live with said I looked like I was covered with perlite (which is what graupel looks exactly like).
Hey Chess, Wishing you and that guy you live with a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2014!
Thanks, and same to you. You can see I’m off to a very busy start.
Your New Year resolution should be to stay the perfect pure-bred border collie. The guy you live with’s resolution should be to do something decorative with that sand pile. Happy New Year to both of you!
Oh, he already has plans for the sand pile. The iris seed in the refrigerator. (It comes out on the 14th, and goes into a box in the laundry room for a few days.) I can’t think of anything about me that needs improvement, but the guy I live with has several things to work on. I could list them, but I’d still be listing them tomorrow, and the next day.
