Rampaging Puggles.
Tongight Rexie climbed out of the feeding box without me noticing and went rampaging through the house. The first I knew of this was when she wandered into the office and pushed against my right leg, forcing her spines through my sock and drawing blood from a dozen tiny pin-holes. Needless to say it was brown-trousers time for me. I said something like "WHOAAARGHWHATTHE FUUUUUOUUUCH!" and a few other noises indicating fear and alarm before discovering the source of the fear. And alarm.
Anyway. Rexie now weighs 1.02kg after her feed.
It's funny the way things I consider normal make others shake their heads.
"Oh, that's where the owl scratched me..."
"Yeah, the joey pooped on that seat..."
"Last week I was bitten by a bat..."
"That stain is echidna piss, and *that's* a curry stain..."
"When I had my rabies shots..."
"So we steam-ironed the eagle's tail feathers..."
I can't think why.

Did you catch her near your computer using pseudonyms?

So she just spikes you unintentionally, then? It's like a cat rubbing against your legs? I'm trying to grok the puggle demeanour and temperment...

Comments that turn heads...
Which, for some reason known only to God, prompted me to speak out loud, "Now we get to see who's freeballin' or wearin' skivvies!"
I suppose I must have hit a nerve, because *everyone* in front of me started to shift uncomfortably. And one of my shipmates turned to me and said, "Alright...time for you to retire, you've been in the Navy WAY too long."
Feh.

"Hmm, I'm hungry and bored, and the table service here is lacking. If I wander about maybe I can find a sufficient source of nourishment before I perish! I'll just have them add it to my bill!"
She sure found a way to get your attention all right!
I'm amazed she didn't try to climb *up*.
