Tosh's Tails : Rocky Mountain High

Rocky Mountain High

It's Colorado rocky mountain high

I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky

Friends around the campfire and everybody's high

Rocky mountain high (john denver)

Not that I give a rat's ass, but Denver did have a point. You don't need much in the way of artificial stimulants to catch a buzz when you're already a mile above sea level. One solid of Patron tequila will get you far.....maybe too far. I foolishly indulged in several while watching some ridiculously bad reggae outfit at the "Belly Up" tavern in Aspen and the next thing I know I'm rolling around in the snow with McCann trying to wrestle some sense into him. The foolish bastard just couldn't seem to wipe the smile off his face. Kept going on about how much he really loved me and how important it was to actually say it out loud.....before it's too late.....crazy hippy wannabe.

It was hard for me not to bite him right on the face.

But whaddaya gonna do? He might be an idiot....but at least he's my idiot.

And it was nice to see him smile again.

Keep that hippie McCann smiling for us, will you Tosh? Stephanie PS- Patron will do that to the best of us, even at low altitudes. March 18, 2010 5:00 PM

	Loulabelle said: I third what Anne said! Glad to know that your idiot has a smile on his face. Regular doses of tequila should keep it there, I suppose beer works too. Rock the faces off the Chicago crowd and I'll see you at the Juno's! 2010: The Party that refused to end! Lots of love, Loula March 18, 2010 6:30 PM

I ask you, can a canine really take himself seriously when he is referred to as "Beeps"? As usual, zero attention was paid to my personal dignity. Sure, my belly got rubbed in the process and I'm not ashamed to admit I enjoyed it. A dog has needs, never mind the indignities he has to suffer to get them met around here. I can only presume she read your blog about McCann developing altitude sickness and turning all warm and fuzzy on you. She's some kind of fan of his...not enough to pitch her knickers at him, but enough that I've had to listen to variations of England echoing weirdly out of the shower for months. Far be it from me to tread on another canine's literary license, but please have a care what you put in writing, for all of our sakes. I fear this whole declaration of love thing is only the beginning. The next thing you know they'll be forcing us into cute little outfits that match the seasons. My brother in captivity, I swear to you, we’ll be damned before we wear bunny ears! Ebert March 21, 2010 12:21 AM
