They say we're entitled, narcissistic, lacking work ethic, constantly needing affirmation of our overinflated self-esteem and we just won't leave the shelter of our parents and let them BE already! Well, I say I deserve a day off for my hard work, some recognition for it's superior quality and yes, Mom, I will be at dinner on Sunday.

I'm just trying to hold on to my youth, really. Aren't we all?

This is Tucker. He's our dog. He loves to play ball and can dribble like Cristiano Ronaldo. But he hates the rain and the cold (especially after a haircut which as you can see he is badly in need of).

Weather experts say we're in for another La Nina winter — meaning plenty of rain and chilly temperatures. Will we have a repeat of last winter's La Nina snowstorms?

Tucker can only hope. For some reason he loves playing in snow.

Unfortunately, I don't and neither does my car.
