I'm back!

Well hello everyone, I'm back. Thank you for all your messages on my chat box. Sorry if you've been worrying about me.

First of all, Happy 2007 to you all. I hope you all had a good Christmas & got some nice presents & food. I will check out your blogs shortly to catch up with all your news.

I have had a good Christmas, but I have been a bit poorly too. I think I told you before about my sock fetish. Well...it culminated in me eating in one of dad's socks. Now mum thought I had eaten it, but dad said there was no way I could have done, so mum kind of put it to the back of her mind. Then a day or two later I ate some onion & I was really poorly, so I was on the boiled rice diet over Christmas (yum yum - not) but still wasn't very well. On the first working day after the Christmas holidays, mum was going to take me to the vet, but I was sick, & there was the sock, oops! Anyway, I'm now feeling sooooooooo much better, so I think I'd better try really hard not to eat more socks!

So, I was saved from an operation for sock removal, but apparently I am off to the vet's on Wednesday for boy bits removal, gulp!

I got some cool Christmas presents. I'll post some pictures of them later. I have already demolished quite a few of them. The reindeer mum & dad bought me to replace humpy horse has received the same treatment, so he is now eyeless & missing one antler! I think mum & dad are hopeful that after my op I might be less keen to hump my toys & every dog I meet, but I'm not so sure, he he.

Anyway, off to read up on your Christmas adventures. I'll post some pics & tell you more about my Christmas tomorrow.

Licks,
Oscar x

Tell Mum not to worry much about the sock....panties are great too but also tell her not to leave any MONEY laying about cause she'll have to take it back to the bank...and those folks are none to happy about Poopy money..

Just wanted to let you now...Tell Mum to wash after handling any money...

SOO Glad you fell better...

2007 will be an even BIGGER adventure...

Hi Oscar

I'm sorry to hear you've been ill, mate. Socks are not very tasty, really not worth the trouble - I'm glad you sorted it out without the vet. Good luck for tomorrow, I had my bits done at the rescue home. I'm crossing my legs in sympathy.

oh- by the way buddy- I am a sock eater too! I can warn you against it tough- I had one removed from my tummy as a pup and thankfully have been able to remove two myself (ick!)
My mommy and daddy are really diligent now about making sure there are no socks around for me! heheheheh!

oooooh Oscar, so sorry to hear your news about your health.

I am thinking about you! Overdosing on Sock never a good idea.

And a Jewel Removal too, you are in a bad way!

Thinking of you, we have had lesser problems of an internet and a stupid hooooooman unable to operate a computer problem variety, hence our silence. Keep us posted,

love and licks my friend

So, you're giving up your jewels! It makes you look much better from the rearview my Mom says.

I have never eaten a sock. Tugged them, bit them, tossed them around quite a bit!
