  The Dog Walk this morning was incredible. I piled into a cab with my friends Nancy and Fay and their pooches Willie Bean (a pug) and Munchkin (a poodle) and off we sailed to 80th and Riverside to socialize, frolic, eat, drink, pee, and poop (the pups at least) with hundreds of other canines all out to raise money for a great cause.
I can't thank you enough (those who donated money) for your contributions. There was an agility competition (turns out Zoey is great on the balance equipment), a doggie kareoke contest (she's not much of a crooner), a costume contest, free play in a fenced in area, lots of free give aways, and of course, the walk itself. It was like Disneyland for dogs. Yesterday I saw 'Mean Girls' and I really liked it. Tina Fey did an excellent job with the script and really got to the heart of the issue -- girls manipulate and hold grudges while guys use force and it is over and done with. She used the comparison of the social heirarchy of highschool girls to that of primitive jungle animals. Her conclusion, girls act this way due to insecurity. The tragic ending- there is no answer or solution.
I think the film is marketed wrong. It's not your average teen fluff comedy. For those interested in the subject of female bullying I'd like to direct you to fellow Vassar alum Rachel Simmons' book 'Odd Girl Out'. I had dinner with aliens on Mars last night. No really. I did. One can take a shuttle to Mars from 50th and Broadway.
