Or at least, the bunnies in our garden. Stupid bunnies ate the basil. And the neighbor's tomato plants. I offically do not like the bunnies.

In other news, my car is not about to die on me. Apparently, the horrific burning smell is, as best as anyone can tell, caused by a slight oil leak that sometimes hits the exhaust. They can't pinpoint exactly where the oil is coming from, so they can't fix the leak. I have instructions to come back if it gets signifigantly worse. Not a total waste of time, since I also had a belt that I needed to replace. And they had a lab puppy in the garage office. Owner's new dog. Very cute. So very, very cute.

Speaking of dogs, Max currently wants out. He is not going out until I get a chance to check our fence. Earlier today I let him out and the neighbor came by to inform me he was running around in their yard. He never goes far, but he's not real quick to come back in, so I don't feel like playing "Coax the puppy" again today.

You know you've been reading too much fanfic (especially Atlantis) whe you read "lab puppy" and you wonder what kind of puppy would be assigned to/find its home in a laboratory.

*g*

I had an oil leak for years with one of my cars. Burned about a quart or two an oil change. My trustworthy mechanic told me to fix it would be more money than it was worth, and just to keep an eye on the levels.

Thankfully, mine wasn't stinky, though.

Hee. Now I'm wondering "If the crew of Atlantis were turned into dogs, what sort would they be?" McKay would be a basenji. It makes all sorts of noises and is smart, but not very trainable. (One basenji owner I know got an afghan puppy and she could swear the bansenji took one look at it and went "Hmmmm, do I get rid of it now or later?")

Yeah. It only stinks occasionaly, but when it does, it's REALLY stinks, and you start wondering if your engine is on fire.

Heh. Zelenka would be a Jack Russell Terrier. John would be something like a Golden Retriever or a black lab. Hmm...Kavanagh would be a yorkie or other yippie little dog. Bates would be a Rottweiler. Ford...Ford would probably be a standard poodle.

*is thinking way too much about this game and has only spent a minute or two on it*

*laughs*

I had issues like that with a transmission fluid leak. Thing is, it didn't stink all that terribly, but huge clouds of smoke would come wafting up from the undercarriage. Eep. (Same car as the oil leak, now that I think about it...)

Teyla's a Rhodisian Ridgeback. Lean, strong and dangerous. And I'd peg John as a flat-coated retriever -- similar to a Golden, but not dippy. And Ford's a husky.

I dunno. I think John can be plenty dippy at times. *g*
