Lucja's Diary

Part #2
JAN 01st, 2005:
      Did I mention the funny language that these
people speak ? What an impossible combination
of sounds ! Today, I learned my first word,
"Platz", meaning DOWN. Actually, it is not so
difficult. Yes, Hunger is a good teacher.
       Guess what’s for dinner, right CHICKEN !
      Then there is the Klocke Fashion Show. Madame Klocke is trying different
outfits for dogshows. Pepe is less than interested in that, this ignorant idiot. I think
she looks very nice in her jackets and skirts and shoes… Can I go with her to
dogshows if Pepe gets sick ?
       And finally the Grooming thing again. Today, he is torturing my hearing with a
Patricia Kaas imitation, which I think, should be illegal. He is dangerous for any
non-hearing-impaired being. Then combined with grooming, that is too much. Now I
know whom this guy is reminding me of… the dentist in the "Marathon Man". Get
me outa here !
JAN 02nd, 2005:
      I try my best to wake everybody up at 5am.
But they stay put. I could lick my tongue dry,
they wouldn’t get up. It takes one or two hours
more until they recognize what a cute doggie is
waiting for them to get up. Yeah, Pepe waits too.
       Pepe is outside sending PeeMails.
Meanwhile I get my chicken. I think I’m
growing wings. Give me 2 more weeks and be
light on the grooming (so I can keep some
mats), then I can fly away, free as a bird, riding
the wind. When Pepe comes back, he tells me
that he got a PeeMail from Walter. Walter likes
me, uuuhhhh ! Thanks, but I am not interested
in fixed hunting dogs. I prefer a testosterone
loaded atmosphere, even if it is quite tiring.
JAN 03rd, 2005:
      Today, I ordered Sushi for
breakfast, but what do I get ..
CHICKEN !
       Pepe and I are alone all day.
Hmmmm, this could have been
interesting but the door to the
bedroom was closed. We had to play
in the kitchen, with a large window
front. Not the right place for doctor
games. So, we did other things, which
I will not disclose. Our little secret,
right Pepe ?
      Finally, Anna and Volker come home. Still, not much action. They just cook,
eat and rest (from what ?).
       We play with Ali. I simply act like a bitch until he treats me like a lady.
Slowly, he seems to get the message.
      Later, grooming session. Pepe is
disguised as an Old English and he
looks like a pruned peacock. What a
laugh ! I prefer him looking like a
PON, although the puffed up behind is
a good indication of his character,
this goofball.

Part #3
       Here it is, the New Year 2005. My resolution for this year… Be more bitchy. I
am way too nice to other dogs and this is not appreciated. So if they like it rough,
they can have it. This year will be different. Pepe, watch out ! Emmett, be careful !
        Chicken for breakfast. I think the menu selection has room for improvement.
        Today is cleanup day. Stupid European traditions. I can imagine about 2457
better things to do on the first day of the year. On the other hand, I don’t have to do
anything. So why should I care ?
      In the afternoon we go to Tanglewood. This time it is my turn to get burdocked.
Now I know why they call it Tanglewood. Pepe laughed, when he saw me with the
burdocks. Anna did the dogshow thing with Pepe. I was the bait. If Pepe would lose
his concentration and start playing with me, then he would have lost. But he was
good. May be I am not attractive enough for him ? No, I don’t think so. If he is not
on the show leash, then he is always around.
       This time I need to be groomed. To my surprise, Volker is not brutal when
removing the burdocks. He must focus on getting them out in one piece, because if
they break, they break into a thousand pieces and it would take much more time to
get all the stuff out. So the guy did not sing or whistle or did anything else harmful
to my sensitive senses. What a pleasant surprise late in the day !
       Then Pepe and I fight a little bit over the squeaky Atomium. I am working on my
resolution for this year and showed him what a bitch I can be. But not too much
either ! Another nice day. What is Emmett doing ? I almost forgot about him during
the last two days.
