In two months — April 25, the fourth Thursday in April — it’ll be Take Our Daughters and Sons To Work Day. Beagle Man doesn’t have any daughters. He has three sons, but none of them is home — and I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t want to be taken to work, anyway. So last week he just up and declared it Take Our Dogs To Work Day. The thing
is, since taking me to his office would just mean a trip upstairs to his study, where I already hang out a lot, anyway, he took me to Mrs. B-Man’s office in SoNo. Gustav, Eric’s Norsk Buhund, came too, and we spent a bunch of time playing, roaming, sniffing, begging, eating. It was awesome. Note to Scott: Bring Chief next time. Huskies rock.
The Roof Rack Report (#roofrackreport on Twitter, for those who follow me already on @BeagleManHank) appears on Mondays, usually. It’s about politics, travel, food . . . important stuff like that.
Ricky…..Did BM drop the ball on this? I’m not seeing any “Rickey Herman” on the list…not even a beagle!
