A full house.

So since we've been trying to buy a house, we've been living in this smallish apartment for nearly two years. (Only two more months of that -- woo hoo!) And we have a cat. We'd like to get a dog, but it's unlikely since we (ideally) will travel a lot once we get through the first year or so of homeownership.

Just before I left, a friend asked if we'd watch his cat. Sure, no problem. Anyway, Masa will end up doing most of the work since I left last week. So one Japanese guy, two cats, small apartment. Fine, fine.

Then another friend had to go up to the Laurentians and asked Masa if she'd watch her dog for a week. Uh...OK. Anyway, Mac is a great dog and Masa really adores him. So one Japanese guy, our cat, our friend's cat, our friend's dog, one small apartment. All right!

Then our close friend calls. She wants to have a party. Masa, would you watch the baby overnight? She loves Masa and she's a good kid (18 months old), so OK! One night should be fine.

So tonight, in our small one bedroom apartment, Masa has our cat, our friend's cat, our friend's dog, and an 18 month old toddler!

What a nuthouse!

Here's Mags on the bed with the dog. Apparently, she pulled his tail hard and he snapped at her, which freaked her out. Masa said he had to take her outside for 20 minutes and walk around the neighborhood to calm her down.

Busy Masa!
