On Monday, gorgeous designer\/blogger Stacy of taffetadarlings<\/a> was over at my place cutting patterns for her new dress designs while I put price tags on my jewelry ahead of my sample sale<\/a>. (You can still contribute money to Stacy’s September fashion show via Kickstarter<\/a>; lots of expenses need to be covered. Lighting is big bucks, as we just found out<\/a>.) While we were working, Gigi the dog<\/a> had a violent and extended sneezing fit. She looked terrible: one eye was squinty, one was wide open, her tongue was hanging out the side of her mouth and she seemed dazed. As the sneezes continued, Stacy and I started to fear Gigi was having a seizure so it didn’t seem appropriate to whip out a camera and take her picture. However, after the sneezing stopped, and Gigi righted herself and wandered off to the kitchen to inspect Henry the dog<\/a>‘s food bowl as if nothing had happened, we regretted the lack of a photo. So here is my artistic impression of Gigi’s sneezing attack. Stacy tells me it’s an excellent likeness!<\/p>\n

You can see for yourself by comparing it to this photo of a non-sneezing Gigi taken years ago.<\/p>\n
