CNN: Cracker Barrel stock tanks after unveiling a controversial logo change
This Cracker Barrel controversy doesn’t make any sense to me. Coincidentally, that puts me in agreement with Cracker Barrel’s target market.
I’m also adjusting to having guests in the house. Sparky has an innate sense of decorum. He wouldn’t think of watching me come out of the shower. When there is a thunderstorm, he might come in to the bathroom, but he averts his eyes and makes awkward conversation. Snowflake and Chumley are curious and shameless.
The guys are coming together as a team. Sparky is getting used to gang walks. He doesn’t stop everytime he wants to smell or piss on something.
Sparky must have been an only child. He likes Snowflake and Chumley, but in small doses. When they first got here, Sparky was so pleased that they were having fun. When Sparky has had enough, he gets a little shitty.
After the dogs had their nap, we went outside for a comfort stop, then had dinner. After that, they were ready to play. Sparky was having second thoughts about the slumber party idea.
Sparky has started calling Archie ,”Snowflake”, because he is skittish, and he calls Indy, “Chumley”. Maybe because he is bigger, easy-going and not too clever. I don’t know if it’s Chumley from the Tennessee Tuxedo cartoon or Chumlee from Pawn Stars.
Of course I wouldn’t want to confuse either dog by using their nicknames.
Before the dogs came back in the house, I opened up the kitchen. Watching me mow the lawn was so exhausting, they all took a nap after looking around the rest of the house.
Archie remains alert and watchful, but he is relaxed. Both of the guests want to stay near me, and Sparky is fine with that.
