From the conveyor belt to the couch where dwell Squirtle (with a permanent open wound given by Miss Ulla), Spongebob, & Wubbzy (Wow, wow!!) He's such a gooooood doggy. =D 'Tis LOVE, not only static electricity, that keeps him moving under his own power, hopping up on you, following you, & clinging! The guy didn't refill him for free this time, but it only cost a buck. Looking at all the other breeds of balloon dogs, I see that my next favorites after Zep's Dalmatian-patches-on-magenta are the rainbow-spotted ones--especially on the magenta background, which seems very rare. Then the white, silvery-gold, and straight gold. Then the purple/white shaggy guy (also seemingly extremely rare), the green/purple & red/maroon spotted two (same comment), and of course, the rest of Zeppole's own breed (orange, green, & straight-up Dalmatian white.) And omg, all the other animals!! Tiger, chicken, elephant, bunny, giraffe, horse, reindeer, turtle, pig...oh, what looks like an Australian Terrier!! Awesome!!...zebra, duck. T-Rex. Dolphins (which don't walk, obviously), etc. Very awesome. His helium atoms condensed in the freezing temps outside and I was all, "Oh, man, he's already getting a lot softer...he'll be deflated again by tomorrow..." But then he felt solid again indoors and I became all, "OH, duh, the atoms expanded! Yay!" Jack gave him the wary butt-sniff/face-sniff greeting again. The little guy totally recognizes the dog shape and finds it strange to meet one who's maybe a mere hair bigger than him, lol. Typically, his response to any given stimulus is to flop down on his back. Miss Bellatrix Bluetick's, of course, is to turn tail and tear ass away from it--preferably toward her work office haven. Which is precisely what she did when Zep began to move. *le sigh* At least Jack wasn't all terrified-aggressive-angry like the first time. xD Finally, I realized that as he began to lose much of the helium (within a couple of days again), it was possible to stretch his legs out as shown in some of the photos...making him taller (HAHA, JACKO!) and giving him a bit of a different stride! =D
