My Dog Gets the Hiccups Everyday
I suppose the only thing more annoying than a gay blogger going on and on about his hot boyfriend and their wonderful, mutually supportive relationship built on trust, open communication, and hot sex (note to Manly Fireplug: I beg you, do not reveal to my loyal readers that I am a singular Piece. Of. Work.) is a gay blogger who goes on and on about his new puppy.
Too bad for you. I am merely making up for the fact that I only have one, ONE, picture of Louie as a puppy, and it’s a murky polaroid.
And I know that the little monkey will be noticeably larger after the Fireplug and I return from our ten-day trip to Ireland, which we leave for in less than two weeks. We bought our plane tickets months ago, before Finley was even born, when Aer Lingus (heh, he said “Lingus”) announced cheap nonstop flights from San Francisco to Dublin, and when the Fireplug realized he was eligible for Irish citizenship, due to relatives who were born there.
Now he has an Irish passport, and has become much more valuable to me. For if everything goes to shit here, we might be able to sneak over to one of the other EU countries, where he can finally make an honest pervert out of me. So we’ll be touring the country, our itinerary planned around various relatives, through Dublin, Belfast, Derry, and Galway, taking our lives – and the lives of various locals – into our hands with the help of a rental car and two international drivers’ licenses.
Have a great trip! If you get a chance to drive the Ring of Kerry, take it … beautiful scenery and well worth the time.
BTW, I saw the scariest drag I’ve ever seen in a gay bar in Galway. I can’t imagine what bars there must be like now that folks can’t smoke in them. I have some great pics at The George in which our friends across the table are barely visible through the cloud of smoke.

About Ireland-have a grand time!!!!! My family is from Galway…..AND i want to know more about how ‘manly’ is able to get a passport and stuff due to relatives there. I’ve got relatives there and am always looking for another place, a back up plan for if things don’t work out here in Canada…..

Lola: I believe if you have at least one grandparent (or parent) that was born there, you would qualify for citizenship. I think the Irish embassy would have info.

You can make up by the tons of Puppyblogging by posting pics of you and the incredible hot Manlyfireplug. How about a family portrait? you two in bed with the puppy all cuddled up. and shirtless.
November 16th, 2007 at 7:21 pmWith a dog that cute, you should spend less time apologizing, and more time talking/blogging even more about the dog.
I haven’t gotten to the posts about the BF. But with a dog that cute, don’t everyone want you to be their boyfriend?
