Work vs. Dogs (#SFWApro)

So our first full day with the dogs proves they will put a crimp in my schedule. More acute at the moment because of the No Touch rule, but even after that. So I may not be doing much but Demand Media and time-travel watching for a while.
Judging by today, I’ll need to add a half-hour to my morning routine to allow for taking at least one dog out, feeding her, delivering some morning petting. Plus time for going out to do their business during the day, and eventually for walkies (probably right after Trixie’s up to full condition). And extra time for petting and cuddling. That’s particularly important because of having to keep them separated: if I stick Dudley in the pen for a while (in the pen. Maybe I should rename them James and Cagney), I want to switch him for Trixie so he doesn’t feel he’s being punished (though both of them take it surprisingly well).
We’ll see how it goes tomorrow which will be a day of (hopefully) dogs and work both.
