About Hello Happy Pitbulls
The Happy Pitbulls
Hello Happy Pitbulls is a blog started in 2003 by Marilyn Clark following the loss of the original happy pitbull, Blauser. This blog has evolved into my personal rant space about everything ranging from my dogs (Zero and Fifi) to ankle surgeries (have had two and thankfully, I’m out of ankles!). I am now on the 5th incarnation of my blog, having moved from Blogger to iBlog to Blogger to Typepad and now Wordpress.
The happy pitbulls are Fifi (b. 1998) and Zero (b. 2000) and they are the best four-footed companions a girl could ask for. They have had a lifetime of weird medical stuff, ranging from Zero’s double TPLO (like a dog knee-replacement) surgeries and a recent thyroid carcinoma to Fifi’s resurgence of dermadactic mites (yuck).
And, if they could, they would eat cats for breakfast.
About Me
@marlinex
I describe myself on Twitter as: Self-proclaimed geek girl, early adopter, CA State government employee, and social media experiment gone wrong. That pretty much sums it up.
You can find me in a number of places: Twitter, Govloop, Flickr, Delicious, Facebook, Google Reader, Friendfeed, and Linked In. I grew up in Massachusetts, and after living in New York, Seattle, San Francisco and Berkeley, I have settled in Woodland, California.
I am a government employee working for the State of California. I tend to take it personally when people cite stereotypical state worker ethics, and I talk about that frequently in my various social media sites. I work in web communications and spend a great deal of my life outside of work researching trends in delivering information to and engaging with constituents. I know, geeky, but to me - fascinating.
Thanks for checking out the blog. Got a question, let me know!
