Hot times, they are for diggin

Seriously..its been hot here in San Diego. I'm just a pup, and havent been around the block much (well, that's not entirely true...I've been around the block lots of time on our nightly walks, but Mom said it was just a "figure of speech"...whatever that means). Anyway, like I was sayin...its been HOT! Mom said San Diego isnt normally this hot, at least not this many days in a row, but I'm not sure I believe her. Last weekend was hot...it was hot during the week...this weekend was hot...this whole week is suppose to be hot...oh, and yeah, guess what? The coming weekend is suppose to be hot too.

When I say hot, I'm talkin 90 degrees F. That's too hot to even go outside! And, since its not typically this hot in San Diego, Mom said we dont have something called A/C.

I think A/C stands for "always cool". I've felt it when we've gone on walks. A store will have its door open, and there's a nice cool breeze comin from inside. I always want to go inside...just a little, even if its just for a moment to lie on the nice cool tile, but Mom always says "no dogs allowed". Grrrrr.

Last night, it was so hot that I couldnt even sleep in the bed with Mom. I was pantin and pantin, so finally I jumped down off the bed and went to lie on the nice cool wood floors in the bedroom. Awww...much better.

Tonight I decided to make my own nice cool spot to lie. You see..there was this tangerine tree in the yard. Mom said it was a dwarf, but I think it just didnt like the spot she decided to plant it. It just wouldnt grow. It wasn't happy. I could tell, cuz I'm smart like that.

So, I decided to help Mom move it. And during the relocation process, I found that the dirt in the hole was nice and cool! Oh boy...once I got started, I just couldnt stop. It was soooo much fun to dig!! Dirt flyin everywhere. Worms in the dirt! Findin the rocks and flingin them out of the hole! Whooohooo!

What fun! Mom gave me a little bit of the stink eye when she first came out and saw my masterpiece..but then she started laughin. And I dont know why, but whenever she does, she always says to me "its a good thing you're cute!"

Anyone know what she means by that?
