I was ROBBED!

Totally ripped off.

Today for lunch, I bought a pizza and took it home. It was good, but I stopped at eating half, figuring that I'd save the other half for dinner tonight. Two meals for $5 total. How can you beat that?

And it was good, too. So good, in fact, that I spent much of the day anticipating how good that other half would be tonight with the beer I'd bought.

Alas, I forgot to put the pizza in the fridge when I went out to the mailbox, and when I returned, it was to an EMPTY PIZZA BOX on the floor. My damned "loyal" pack of hounds had turned on me again and swiped MY FOOD!

Hamsters are definitely on the horizon. Hamsters would not steal half of a pizza. Not unless there were a whole freaking lot of hamsters.

Sigh.

So it was yogurt for dinner instead. And yogurt and beer? Not quite the "win" that beer and pizza would have been. Just saying...

Tempted to take these dogs to the local Chinese restaurant tomorrow and see how much they offer me.

    Damn it, don't do that to me! I saw the post title in my subscription feed and thought you'd been held up or some asshole had broken into your house. Damn near gave me a heart attack!

    1. If someone breaks in here, they get bit. If someone holds me up, they get shot. And even if they succeed, all they gonna get is two thieving dogs and a bunch of unpaid bills.

  5. Their eyes speak to their innocence. Call a jury of 12 dogs (good and true) and see how they judge their peers.

  6. So does beer and yogurt fizz? Beer and ice cream does.

  9. So, let me get this straight. YOU leave the pizza where these half starved, weak, lovable, loyal puppies are guarding your home against the zombies...........feeling abandoned when you went out. Sensing the apocalypse was imminent, they ate the pizza to keep up their strength for the upcoming battle. It was survival, pure and simple.

  10. Looks like they want pizza for supper tomorrow too. I wonder if they shared equally or if one ate more than the other? Guess you'll find out tomorrow.

  11. Hang on, hang on. You found an empty box on the floor. That's circumstantial. You have no actual proof that the dogs did it. Did you SEE them eat the pizza? How can you be sure that another wild animal didn't break in and abscond with the pizza, like those feral neighbor cats? Perhaps the dogs are innocent. Those poor pups need a better lawyer. You blame them for A LOT of things that I'd bet they didn't do.

  12. Perhaps you should rename them to Dindu and Nuffin.

      @CM - Based on Murphy's previous descriptions, I'm betting more "Bonnie and Clod."

      And, Murph - sounds like a self inflicted wound to me, one of many you've suffered....

  13. Yes, but explain why the microwave smelled of pizza. Those are some smart doggies.

  16. Unattended Pizza box in kitchen + doggies who weren't invited to join you for round one = invitation to help themselves. Sorry for your dinner fail nonetheless! Yogurt and beer, though? I'm thinking iccck.
