Sitting outside at a cafe having a glass of wine. Because, you know, it’s January, and we can still sit outside here in New York. Uh-huh. It feels so WRONG.
At the table behind me were two gay men, who seemed so lovely and so funny that I kept wanting to join them. Sitting around the foot of the table were their 3 small dogs. Adorable. At one point, I heard the names of the dogs – and I thought: That is genius. GENIUS. I wrote them down immediately.
The names of the 3 dogs were:
Gypsy Rose Lee
Latex
and Couture
I love those men.
Sean inherited a cat named Fosse (who has since gone to cat heaven.)
not to be competitive for no reason at all (other than that’s how cat owners are), but ours are way better! one named from TV Scrubs, one named from Harry Potter, and one named from TV ALIAS. and i think we should get bonus points for being creative and fun without having gay genes, because they have a head start in that department. ;-)
Latex is kinda funny, though, because what if one of them wasn’t allergic to dogs but was allergic to Latex? they’d have to get rid of the poor little puppy.
Hahaha! I love those! So … Latex was a wiener dog, right?
sarah – I love the names of your cats. Minerva, especially. What a PERFECT name for a cat.
Bonus points, indeed!!
Tracey – they were all these little frou-frou dogs with “hair” hanging down in their big eyeballs. They were adorable.
I just heard the names and had to laugh. Like – of COURSE those were the dog names.
Couture??? hee hee
red, when i got Minerva from the Ft. Worth Zoo (she had been wondering around out there without a mommy), i was reading Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince for the first time. i went over to my BFF’s house and told her and her husband (who are both huge Harry Potter fans), “I don’t know, I’m thinking maybe Hermione, but I really like Minerva…” and I looked around, and my BFF’s hubby looked at me and grinned and said, “Minerva is a great name.” Like he just GOT IT. and i thought that was so cool that someone else besides me picked up on the fact that her full name would be Professor Minerva McGonagall. so that was it. no more wavering.
