Squiders, I have lost my voice. This has made my normal wrangling of puppies and small, mobile ones more infuriating than usual. But, anyway, I’ve got a full household, so I’m going to declare a hiatus here at the blog
Introducing Jorge
I realized I never introduced you guys to Jorge. My sister likes to think she’s funny, so for my birthday (back in October), she got me a llama (or possibly an alpaca?) cookie jar. My first thought was “What the
Delayed Due to Cake
So, yesterday was my birthday! And I promise, I meant to post, but, you know. Sugar. It was a nice birthday, though. (I turned on the radio in the car, and Jack & Diane by John Mellencamp was on, which was apparently
