Fiction recommendation for you: The Circle by Dave Eggers. It's about an internet company gone malignant (as in grows into all aspect of life....).
Thanks for the Rec!
Tried to get a comment up the other day, but I couldn't prove I wasn't a robot! Hopefully, it was just the internet connection. ;)
Anyway, great lists. You gave me some good ideas, especially to check the couch for muddy dogs!!

Muddy dogs always pick the most comfortable location. After they shake in the kitchen, of course.
