music: Bonjorno! Sono oggi un cane Chow Chow italiano molto felice!
mood: Translation: I'm a very happy ITALIAN CHOW CHOW today!
La mia squadra favorita di calcio ha vinto appena la coppa del mondo!
Translation: My favorite soccer team just won the world cup today!

Eh, eh, eh, L'adolescente "stupido" che vive nel nostro pensiero Francia della casa vincerebbe..
Translation: The silly human teenager who lives here was actually hoping that France would win.. HA HA HA
Viva Italia!
Just like in the Euro countries, soccer in Canada is a BIG sport. All of our eyes were glued to the World Cup Soccer this weekend. We were routing for our favorite team..... ITALY!!! So today, I am an Italian chow chow. Wuf - Wuf! - Translation: Bonjorno et Viva Italia!!!!
No wonder I am the Chow KING OF PASTA! - I love pasta! / Amo la pasta!
Please everyone... send me some cheese tortellini! Wuf!

There's too much going on this weekend.
Soccer, festivals, road marches, jazz, pool parties, and pei yodeling. polo matches, and out of town visitors. How am I going to deal with all this!?!?!? What is wrong with my human? This is too much for an aging chow. I want just want chowy peace and quiet, chowy cool temps and no one around me and my soccer game.
Why is everyone being so inconsiderate to me?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Too much going on here... parades, music, visitors, noise... can't stand it!!!! Savannah too high today on her sugar fix..... MeiMei out of control, and Sassy is pissy mood.
I gotta get out of here!

Wow. You let your BD run loose so far away from you. I wish I could let me BD loose like that. I'd be so afraid to. I have trouble walking her on a leash let alone leaving her free like that. I 'm so amazed.
Thank you for the encouragement.

Yes, wasn't that a relief that the Italian team won? Disgraceful ending by the *humph!* French team..
Although, instead of resting peacefully, I was jolted awake everytime my human screamed at the tv during this game. She was a tad bit too excited watching the game. I fear I may have to break out the valium-laced cookies for her if she doesn't calm down watching future soccer games on TV. What heavy responsiblity I have... King Merlin, I utterly empathize with you...
