I'm hanging out in Hawaii! It was a surprise trip, really, and very much needed.

but I find something about Michael Jacksons death to be  a relief in the same way its a relief to see a wounded animal put down. I find something so tragic about him- he used to be so vibrant and joyful and in the past years he has just seemed sick both mentally and physically.

I was cutting lemons to make lemonade and sliced a big chunk out of my finger..which then, of course, got lemon juice in it. OWCH!

Did I tell you all I have a new puppy? I hit her with my car when I came around a corner and she was in the middle of the road. She was fine as I wasn't going that fast, but she was in the middle of the road to eat an ( Read more... )

He is still very timid and afraid of men (excluding my partner), but is VERY trusting of us. He let us bath him, clean his ears and clip his front nails last night after the vet removed his bandages.
