me and my house

casey scared the &#$% out of a fedex delivery guy today.

on beautiful days like today, i leave the front door open and put up a baby gate on the porch so casey can walk in and out and roam around but he is still under tight supervision. kevin and i like to refer to this setup as "zoo dog" because if you see it from the front yard, he looks like a dog in the zoo just watching people walk by from behind bars. he generally terrorizes cats and old people out on walks. he loves it.

i was expecting a package from work today and from inside i hear someone talking and looked toward the front door. casey was crouched down with his non-existant stub of a tail wagging like crazy.

i suppose if you hadn't met casey before it could have looked like he was about to pounce.

the fedex guy was moving in slow motion, scared out of his wits. i heard him saying in a soothing voice "its okay, big guy. i'm not going to come any closer, i'm just going to leave the package here. easy big boy."

he left the package in the middle of our sidewalk and turned and ran back to his truck. i started laughing so hard! casey wouldnt hurt a fly- he was just excited because he thought someone was coming to play with him!

poor fedex guy. he had quite the scare. and poor casey, he was looking forward to making a new friend!
