Normally dogs even trying to do that to people totally disgusts me and no dogs who spend any time with me are ever allowed to do that.

But aside from life's normal dose of Murphy's law being dispensed with regularity as the week passes, I've had an extra he**ish week being drug by my hair crying and screaming into the 21st century after my antique DSL modem just up and died and by finally getting wifi installation and a phone service and line change, troubles with my home security system talking to the monitors via the wifi line for two days and having a second tech out to redo it, troubles with my TV acknowledging my blu-ray player with "handshake" issues as I tried to access Netflix via the blu-ray, still being unable to unscrew and remove the back of my TV base in order to hook up my DirecTV Cinema Connection Kit internet adapter to the receiver so I can get their On Demand programming, finding out my 3 year old laptop's wifi card is malfunctioning just when I finally need it(!), making a special trip to Best Buy to shop for something called a wifi adapter and getting online for the first time via wifi - after registering and changing the password from the one the tech set me up to use on his laptop, saving and forwarding old emails, saving my Yahoo contacts to a CVS file and importing them into my other email account, then changing my email address on countless websites and trying to get set-up for internet programming services - registering here and there (I've never registered in so many different places or invented as many usernames/new passwords as much as I have the first 4 days this week) and cancelling my old AT&T phone line/DSL - all that in addition to life's daily merry-go-round of personal, business, household and family issues, it all finally began to get to me, I imagine.

And to see those women laughing so hard at that crazy-acting dog's insanely single-minded pursuit of purpose really made me finally break down and really laugh for the first time in days, even if I might think all the humans participating in making the video might have somewhat staged it. Dark humor secondary to my state of computer exhaustion, I suppose; but then I guess most think it's funny as the clip was included on the author's list of what was intended to be a light-hearted and even touching list of some of the things that dogowners all unexpectedly deal with at one time or the other.
Ha ha, I know what you mean, while I love computers, I'm not good at learning anything new, I hate the idea of updating my computer and then all my old programs won't work, so it's like you have to learn everything new. I guess I didn't see the laughing, I was just horrified that a dog could do that. I hate to say this, but what if she were nude, that's where the "scary" part came from, and I just don't want to think about this a second longer.
