About

This blog is owned by two parents figuring things out as we go along. We live in Seattle with the namesake of this blog, the Dooz, and our two giant dogs. Okay, they’re not giant but they are big. We migrated here from the midwest (specifically the Detroit area) in search of mountains and liberalism. 11 years later (this month!) we’re still here.

We still like to do the things we enjoyed before (like go to shows, watch movies and read) but not as much as we love hanging out with the boy. And no, Dooz is not his real name but it is his real life nickname.

Mark likes wall of sound type music, reading and playing the guitar. He’s also a little bit obsessed with The Cure and My Bloody Valentine.

Kim likes days that she doesn’t have to work, reading as much as possible and things that are dark and spooky. She’s blogged here for about five years. Oh and she is ALOT obsessed with Black Rebel Motorcycle club.

Dooz likes cheese, crackers, Automoblox, and anything dog related such as seeing dogs and petting dogs while shouting “DOG! DOG! DOG!” Though, dogs are trumped by technology, especially technology that can be easily broken.

Primo likes the dinnertime next to the highchair, the dog park and being in a pack.

Penny likes being pet and laying on soft things (i.e. dog bed, couch, people bed, half a blanket balled up on the floor, stuffing from a pillow, etc.). She especially likes dog rescue, because that’s how she came to us.
