I had a job interview!

Wooof-eee!  I finally have a job!  It's going to be HUUUUGE!  Here's what happened.

Friday, Mom and me (oops, I mean Mom and I, or is it I and Mom? no, it's Mom and I) went to a school in Central Phoenix.  It's a school where kids need extra help.  And I'm supposed to be the extra help. 

We talked to a nice lady who is a Social Worker.  I think that someone who works with things like my blog and Facebook and Twitter and stuff.  So anyway, she liked my blog (and I think she really liked me, too.  I can tell)  Mom and Patti (the gal we met from Gabriel's Angels) and me and the Social Worker all had a very productive conversation about how I could help these kids.  There's going to be a group of 6 or so that will be MY group.  I said I would like the kids to be a little older, maybe around 9 or 10.  Just 'cuz, I can be kinda scary for the really little ones.  Even though I'm real gentle with them.  I'm almost as big as most of them.   So I decided to go a little older.  Every one agreed with me. 

So then we toured the school and met some of the kids.  There were a group of little girls working with their new Laptops.  They all looked like sisters, 'cuz they all had on the same shirts, and they all had pretty long brown hair.  Mom let me go over and nuzzle them a little.  They petted me and cooed over me.  One of them even took a picture of me on her laptop.  But she had to do a selfie 'cuz she couldn't figure out how to make the camera turn around.  It was so fun.

Then we went in a classroom where one of the boys was not being very good.  I went over and rubbed his leg and he petted me too and pretty soon he was being a good boy.  I think that's what I'm supposed to do.  Help them be happy and good.  This will be fun.

I don't start work until next October.  We will be going back to St. Louis pretty soon and the kids will be out of school for a few months.  It will give me time to think of some activities we can do together.  I'm really looking forward to it.  And while I'm in St. Louis, I'm going to be looking for opportunities to be a therapy dog there, too.  Let me know if you know of any.  (I heard in Tucson that they have Therapy Dogs for the Law Students when they were taking their exams!  That would have been cool, but I didn't hear about it until after they graduated.)

I also like that I can wear my new Gabriel's Angels vest when I go to work.  Wanna see?


It's pretty Rad, don't you think? 

I best be getting to sleep.  As the only working member of this family, I have to keep my energy up.

Love, G

Hi, y'all!

  Bet you've been wondering what happened to me?  It's a long story.  Started back when Mom and Dad left me in California while they...
