Cast of Characters

So, we here are Pug Off change the names to protect the innocent. So here's a list of who's who. More will be added, I'm sure. But these are the folks listed so far:

The Regulars:

Momma Pug – The Queen of Pug Off. Read more about me here.

The Aggie – My dear, loyal husband. (Also official Pug Off pooper-scooper.) He's a writer too.

Sonny the Pug – "Hello, ladies." STP is the official mascot of Pug Off. He's a lot like his momma – fat, funny and full of shit. (He's also what I like to call, "A Daddy Apologist." The Aggie does no wrongs in the eyes of the pug.)

Gertrude – Our disenfranchised cat. It used to be just the two of us. Then I married the Aggie, got three dogs and ruined her life.

Ripken – The coolest dog on the planet. Seriously. He was supposed to weigh 15 pounds. Uh, no. Try 46. We like to call him the "Big Fuzz." Stick around and you'll see why.

Deuce – The baby of our family. He also may very well be possessed by Satan. Think Tasmanian devil meets adorable puppy.

Our Houstonites:

Madge – My oldest friend in the entire world. We met the first day of kindergarten and its been downhill ever sense.

The Razorback – Husband of Madge. Very good at ducking thrown produce.

Madgette – The five-year-old spawn of Madge and the Razorback. So much like her mother that I feel like I'm five when I'm with her.

Tree – College buddy and co-Houston inhabitant. Also serves as official drinking/thrift store buddy. Also an uber-nerd/Star War's geek.

P.Daddy – Husband of Tree and baby daddy (we presume, anyway.)

Jaime' – The J.D. to the Aggie's Turk.

Stark – Co-worker/buddy. Skinny and pretty, but her total clumsiness/social awkwardness allows her to be included included in my inner circle.

Debbie Do Right - Childhood friend and companion of myself and Madge. There's a reason there were Three Stooges, Three Amigos and Tres Margaritos, por favor.

Phruitz - Paramour of the DDR. No one enjoys messing with their wife more than Phruitz.

All in the Family:

Big Daddy – My father. Carrier of circus-act-shit genes.

Grand-Momma Pug – My mother. The ying to my daddy's insane yang.

Grumpy – Father of the Aggie and our fellow house mate.

Grummy – Mother of the Aggie. Also a supplier of fine wines and adult beverages.

Nurse Larry – My baby sister/nurse. She dispenses super-valuable advice, such as: "Don't panic. No, I don’t think you will die from swallowing an eraser."

Stewart – Nurse Larry's fiance/indentured servant.

Big Guns -- My beautiful, "endowed" cousin. Also, Sonny's girl friend. He gave her the nickname.

Auntie A. -- My aunt. Mother of Big Guns. Fellow dog herder.

Jenny Craig – My middle sister who's now an aerobics instructor. She recently lost 75 pounds, thus we don't really allow her on this site.

Mr. Fix-It – Husband of Jenny Craig. Equally perfect. Also exiled due to flawlessness.

Baby C – Our nephew and the most awesome baby in the world.

Wen-Bin – Mother of Baby C and sister to the Aggie.

John Deer – Husband of Wen-Bin and father of Baby C.

And last, but certainly not least…

Joe Bufface – My brother-in-law. He doesn't like sharing his games with me.
