It’s Miller time

by Meg on August 29, 2006

Dewd, I have filled out ENOUGH T.P.S. reports today. My boss won’t stop hollering about deadlines, I’m late with the Thompson account, and I have to hire a new bookkeeper. It’s friggin’ Miller time, People.

First! CUTE!!

2 Robbie 08.29.06 at 6:21 pm

That puppy is so impossibly cute and perfect that I thought it was a stuffed toy! LOL!

3 Rafael 08.29.06 at 6:29 pm

He’s a Mac puppy! Yeah!

Is he an office pet?

4 Stacy 08.29.06 at 6:29 pm

That is one tired-looking pup.

5 mariser 08.29.06 at 6:29 pm

this is too cute. lovee the 2nd picture. unfortunately there is not enough room on my desk for me to lay down and dangle a pa…erm, extremity.

paws up on the Millter Time
paws down on the fun size; we demand King size!

[hyperventilating]
OMGOMGOMG! IS THIS TEH DREAM OFFICE????
I wanna see out that window! Is it Seattle? Is it?? Is there a big melted Frank Gehry blob complex down there???

Oh, nice spaniel, too.

7 mariser 08.29.06 at 6:31 pm

color me confused.

are we referring “The Office”? or “Office Space”?

if the “The Office”, the Brit or the Amurrican version?
if “Office Space”, who took my red Swingline Stapler?

8 Laurie C 08.29.06 at 6:35 pm

(Crossing references) Look in the Jell-o, mariser.

9 Theo 08.29.06 at 6:36 pm

Mariser — [ahem] — maybe peruse those links under the second photo.

10 mariser 08.29.06 at 6:43 pm

T.,
I saw the links referring to “The Office” (Amurrican)* but aren’t the TPS reports (with or without covers) a purvey of “office Space”?

*good show, but I prefer the Brit.

11 ceejoe 08.29.06 at 6:45 pm

I used to work at a place where the owners brought their doggies to work. It was *so* kewl! Sigh… not allowed in bureaucracy-land here…

12 Theo 08.29.06 at 6:54 pm

Ah, I see the confusion now.
Honestly I just noticed
1) pooch
2) on desk
3) with a Mac

and now I also see (4) a brick wall, which I suppose is evidence that this is *not* in fact the interior of the re-designed and re-purposed Space Needle.

Ah well. Hope springs eternal.

13 Pika Hikari KT 08.29.06 at 7:01 pm

Aw, the widdle cutie’s so sleepy…almost looks like a pillow~!

“*searches the web* OMG, Angle really DID get fired!o_O I’m gonna sleep and pretend it never happened, da wan…*honk-shu~*”

14 Lex - Be 08.29.06 at 7:09 pm

Hahaha Theo, crazy guy.

And, OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!! Did the sender wanted to kill me???? Extreme Cuteness!!
OVERLOAD OVERLOAD!! RED ALERT!

15 beacon 08.29.06 at 7:09 pm

Aww, sleepy doggie!

Drat, I wish I could do that. It looks so comfortable. Maybe I just need a gigantic desk.

16 beezie687 08.29.06 at 7:22 pm

I’m at work and that’s TEWTALLY how I feel right now. But I don’t look so cute sleeping on my desk. Adorable pupper!

17 Aubrey 08.29.06 at 7:28 pm

Ceejoe: Both my current and previous jobs have had an open-dog policy. And if Princess the Calico cat honors us with her presence, she will take a stroll through our office.

My advertising job never had animals roaming around, but we still had, you know, the copy-writers.

Pika: Are you talking about Kurt Angle? Sure it’s a surprise, but it’s all good: Jeff Hardy is back!!!

18 Skwerly 08.29.06 at 7:33 pm

Dangit, I keep telling my boss we need an office dog, but I don’t think he’s buying it quite yet.

I could SO use a daily afternoon snorgle with a puppydawg. It sucks being away from my three baby furballs all day.

Speaking of babies, we’re having A GIRL!

19 Theo 08.29.06 at 7:44 pm

Happy birthday not yet
Happy birthday not yet
Happy birthday for Skwerly
Happy birthday sometime-in-the-not-too-distant-future-yay!

20 Aubrey 08.29.06 at 7:47 pm

Skwerly:

Congratulations on your future cuteness! T. – shouldn’t we drape the Dream Office in pink crepe streamers, or something?

21 Laurie C 08.29.06 at 7:48 pm

Oh, mariser, have you looked for your stapler under the dog?

22 Redzilla 08.29.06 at 7:48 pm

You know, I was just going to ask my boss for a new wrist support pad to go with my mouse. Think I’m going to ammend my request to specify that I want the doe-eyed, tie-tie spaniel model to cushion my mousing wrist.

23 mariser 08.29.06 at 7:48 pm

skwe,

congrats and best wishes! when is the wee princess expected to grace us with her presence?

24 mariser 08.29.06 at 7:50 pm

Laurie C,

I’m not moving this dog. for all I know it is the power supply for that Mac.

perhaps at break time…

25 ceebs 08.29.06 at 7:52 pm

I had my doggie at the office yesterday. Unfortunately he slept for maybe 5 minutes. (not on my desk though) Every time the phone rang (which, thankfully isn’t often) he barked. Actually, every time he heard any kind of a noise, he barked. It was his first time here though, by the end of the day he was pretty good. Maybe I’ll bring him in occasionally. I miss those kitties at my former place of employment (which I not so fondly refer to as ‘Weast, Inc.’)

Oh & cuuuuuuute CKC pupper!

26 fate 08.29.06 at 8:02 pm

look at that dog ralxing like its the endof summer holidays if only some people were like that…instead of working all day and night…

27 Christine 08.29.06 at 8:12 pm

that dog is so cute, and I think I have the same exact mouse pad at my desk at work, if it is an agatha ruiz flower one that is!

28 Kate 08.29.06 at 8:24 pm

If I could have some happy waggly little dogs brought into my office to play with me every couple of hours or so, I would be SO much happier at work.

Even once a day would be fine…

I mean, wouldn’t that make everyone feel better about their jobs? Is it too much to ask?????

*drafts strongly-worded memo to bosses*

29 PuppyMomma 08.29.06 at 8:24 pm

I bet that puppy still has a round, pink puppy/baby belly.

I could snorgle Cavaliers all day.

Oh wait, I do.

30 soxfan 08.29.06 at 8:59 pm

Oh so sweepies, de yiddle guy. I met one of these this weekend at a dog show. Her meanie daddy had her outside in an x-pen in the rain, trying to make her go potty. She didn’t waaaannna do that, she was gettin’ rained on. Poor teeny princess. So she just stood there with her paws up on the edge of the x-pen, waggling her tail at me. I went and scritched her head a bit, after asking permission of course. I so lurve the doggies!

31 Aubrey 08.29.06 at 9:07 pm

1. Here’s a lovely painting:
http://www.salme.org/TB/uploaded_images/Duke_of_Marlborough_Family-720954.jpg

(we can forget for the moment about their unhappy marriage)

2. Walking to work last week I was literally stormed by a KCS-puppy. He was undoubtedly happy to see me, but when I leaned forward to pet him, he’d pull back. But a second later he’d be checking me out – not ready for the petting thing, just the attention. He was really a young boy. Or it could have been my fearsome visage, I’m not sure.

I really do walk at the best times of the day, during the AM/PM walking of the dogs.

32 Pika Hikari KT 08.29.06 at 9:09 pm

Aubrey: The very same. One of my favorites, but I respect his decision to go before he went over the limit(I could’ve mentioned that stupid Rey/Chavo feud still going on–proof that Vince does not get it).:( I’m sure we’ll see him again.^^

And yes, Jeffy is back.-^__^- Had a pretty cool run in TNA though, and I’d hoped to see him back with Matt…but he looks better(and cuter!) than ever, so I’ll let it slide.

33 Dustbunny 08.29.06 at 9:15 pm

There’s an adorable CKC doggie who lives in my building. Every time he sees me, he goes into paroxysms of joy, jumping, barking, licking etc. He lurvves me : ) Either that, or my perfume — eau de filet mignon — is having its effect on him.

34 A Fine Morsel 08.29.06 at 9:25 pm

Lovely cheek puff and nappy ears!

35 vlohma 08.29.06 at 9:25 pm

Fluffy puppy ears make handy pillows, making them both good-looking and practical.

36 MamaDawn 08.29.06 at 9:27 pm

We get lots of pets in my office… twice a week from various rescue organizations. They come in to talk about the pet of the week on the radio, and we end up adopting them all (I have 5 cats and 2 dogs!)The only bad thing is I’m in charge of “piddle” patrol.

37 Lauri 08.29.06 at 9:39 pm

Lol, yay MamaDawn! Funny you should say that, cuz Pooh Patrol starts right now, for me! 4 dogs/4 cats. It’s a lovely evening to be scooping up land mines!

38 Skwerly 08.29.06 at 9:42 pm

Our wee bebeh, Eva Elizabeth, will grace us with her cuteness sometime before Christmas. I’m now about 6 months along.

My due date is Dec. 21st. :o

Rissmass baby!

39 KatB 08.29.06 at 9:43 pm

That pup is so cute it actually hurts! I’d hate to be the person at the next desk trying to work with this adorable baby napping close by. No way could I get any work done!

40 Skwerly 08.29.06 at 9:44 pm

Oh, and Aubrey, make that mint green streamers (no Pepto pink for our baby!), and I’m there.

:D

And Theo, your birfday song made me giggle!

41 Aubrey 08.29.06 at 9:46 pm

Not to bore everyone with this, but Pika, in an interview Jeff said that he’d love to tag with Matt once more. Time to break out my old Hardy Boyz t-shirt!

Redz: About wrist supports – I could’ve used this guy when my bark-al tunnel symdrome acted up.

42 Ant 08.29.06 at 10:39 pm

It should be Office Space, not Office.

43 Denita TwoDragons 08.29.06 at 10:41 pm

Skwerly–congrats on your upcoming 2006 Model! :-)

–TwoDragons

44 snoopysnake 08.29.06 at 10:44 pm

Oh, don’t worry, little spaniel, Sarah in accounting is so yours. She will not be able to resist you and your silky coat and long ears and little pink paw pads. She will come put you in her lap and stroke your fur until you fall asleep. You need a nap because you look soooo sleepy. I wish you belonged to me.

45 Nora 08.29.06 at 10:48 pm

Where do I apply? I want to work in this puppies office! It is really a nicer work day when you have furry co-workers!!

46 Aubrey 08.29.06 at 10:54 pm

Skwerly: if you were having twins, we could put up Double-Mint streamers!

47 MamaDawn 08.29.06 at 10:58 pm

Skwerly: congrats on the holiday package. Babies are gifts from God, but they’re always missing the instruction book.

48 thanks :*) 08.29.06 at 11:02 pm

Awww, Meg, this is such a perfect post. My beloved, beautiful redheaded spaniel just passed away two days ago, and this sweet sleepyhead made me smile.

49 mariser 08.29.06 at 11:13 pm

thanks:*),

so sorry for your loss. hope she died in peace.

50 Brak_Silverbone 08.29.06 at 11:14 pm

Man, I wish I could bring MY dog to the office.

Man, I wish I had a Mac…

51 katy 08.29.06 at 11:19 pm

i just want to snorgle this puppy…its adorable!!!

52 Tammy 08.29.06 at 11:20 pm

The puppy eyes oh the eyes and that muzzlepuff its killing meeeee dammit you can even here the lil honk shu from here in blighty!!

55 Jackie from Michigan 08.30.06 at 1:13 am

A Kig Charles Cavalier Spaniel AND a jar of Krakels? Man, my day is complete, even if the Baxer Account isn’t.

Floppy ears! Dangly limbs!

56 Mina 08.30.06 at 1:16 am

Adorable puppy, though I have a bone to pick with this breed as I was chased by one. *Major dog issues ahoy!*

57 hrh.squeak 08.30.06 at 1:57 am

To Thanks:*) –
Hugs. Condolences. Licks from puppehs.

Mina – I’m pretty sure, knowing the breed, that the worst that could have happened if the KCS doggie caught up with you is that you would have drowned from being licked and licked and licked. Glad you can still see the adorable in this one – you’re on your way to recovery.

Erasmus – Thankee, sir or madame, as the case may be, for OtterzOtterzOtterz!!!!!

58 Aubrey 08.30.06 at 2:11 am

Erasmus: “In Praise of Otters”!

Thanks:*)-
Allow me to send your way all sympathy, along with puddin’s. Your spaniel was loved, so you know that his life was complete, and happy. I’d mention something about a Rainbow Bridge, but I’ll get all sniffly.

59 Colleta 08.30.06 at 2:18 am

oo… Sooo cute! What breed is he?

60 Theo 08.30.06 at 2:46 am

Colleta — King Charles Spaniel, if I don’t miss my guess.
(And if I do, it’s only because I’m a Cat Person.)

61 gwenchocolate 08.30.06 at 2:48 am

OK, REALLY THIS HAS *GOT* TO STOP!

I mean, COME ON!

It’s like the ultimate cute EVERY SINGLE TIME and I can’t take it anymore.

Cuteoverload is bad for my heart: it’s always exploding.

62 saska 08.30.06 at 4:04 am

My manager brings her miniature rat terrier in about three days a week. The preciousness can’t stay in the office the whole time, but I get to go out and play with her on breaks on the lawn. First day she was in, I picked her up and she promptly heaved a sigh and went to sleep on my, uh, cushiony shelf.

Honestly, it makes the whole day better. I think it ought to be policy.

63 Tawcan 08.30.06 at 4:26 am

That is soooo cute!

64 betty 08.30.06 at 4:39 am

Hooray for so much of teh CUTE! I’ve had a rough couple a’weeks with work..and CO has nursed me through it…

This pup melted me..I’m a big puddle of cute goo.

Can I be the coffee gal in the dream office? I live closeish to Seattle…heck I’d be happy to be the ’splode-cleaner-upper (or would that be the squee-gee’er?)!!

65 betty 08.30.06 at 4:48 am

I recently changed job locations..but my old office was right next door to a vet’s office. On rainy days (of which there are many in Portland), they would exercise the small dogs and puppies in our back service hallway. It got to where they would call me at my desk to let me know about the secret puppy meetings (I’d help exercise them and hold leashes).. *sigh* I miss that office…

66 bonho 08.30.06 at 6:32 am

someone’s been watching South Park…! Heh.

67 La Agua Fresca - Looking at the Adorable Dog! 08.30.06 at 6:58 am

Wow…so cute!

68 J. Bo 08.30.06 at 9:03 am

In my L.A. office, well-behaved doggies are very welcome. A few years back, when I was visiting from the Chicago office, I spent a whole afternoon IM-ing my honey with a colleague’s sleepy dachshund on my lap. He (my honey, not the pup) was totally jealous. It was heaven.

Office puppies are the BESTEST.

69 Subhangi 08.30.06 at 11:16 am

W00T!!! OFFICE PUPPEH!!! Who needs coffee anyway?

SNOOOOOOOOOORGS.

70 Laura Betson 08.30.06 at 12:03 pm

Can somebody tell me what kind of doggy that is?

71 jaypo 08.30.06 at 12:29 pm

My boss used to bring her dogs into work and they quite regularly did their business in their *selected* spots in the office. Talk about dizgustin’… No, I don’t work in a junkyard. I work in an academic library. She doesn’t bring them in anymore. Whew.

72 lian 08.30.06 at 12:46 pm

a little falkor! talk to us!

73 Jennifer 08.30.06 at 1:06 pm

Oh my gosh…I think I just died of the cute!

Cavalier’s are my favourite breed, I grew up with them….I just want to cuddle that little pup so much!

We are getting a new Cav pup in a couple of months….so SQUEE to having an adorable puupy face like that in our house again soon!!!!!!

74 Theo 08.30.06 at 1:47 pm

“Squeeee-gee’er”… yeah, we’d definitely need *somebody* with that job title. (Nice, Betty)

And Subhangi — *I* need coffee. Just for starters.

75 A thinker 08.30.06 at 2:44 pm

Man, that is one relaxed puppeh.

And Skwerly, congrats on the soon-to-be baby (joins in singing the not-yet birthday song).

76 The Adirondack Queen 08.30.06 at 7:37 pm

OMG!!!!
Who doesn’t want to eat this puppy up alive!!!! Smooches x a billion!!!

77 Taylor 08.30.06 at 8:08 pm

some one played the cumputer for to long! that’s relly CUTE! It looks like I can eat it

78 Taylor 08.30.06 at 8:09 pm

some one played the cumputer for to long! that’s relly CUTE! It looks like I can eat it

79 Theo 08.30.06 at 10:10 pm

LOL! OK… while this lazy office pooch is melting all over your Mac, *other* dogs are busy earning their board and keep…

80 krystah 08.31.06 at 10:42 pm

What breed of dog is this? It’s just so cute <3

81 Piggalette 09.01.06 at 3:25 am

Skwerly: Congrats on your soon-to-be Christmas gift. So the question is: is it Eee-va or Eh-va? Just curious. Pronunciation is such a pain on the intraweb.

82 sm 09.01.06 at 5:58 pm

omg sooooo cute!! i’m in love! would there happen to be more pix of this puppy? i want more!!!

83 dylweed 09.03.06 at 12:38 am
