We had to put arwen down today. It was as good as it gets for when a pet dies. It was time,but could enjoy today. I got her a cheeseburger. We took her down to the lake to walk as a family. She was tired, but not in pain or scared I love her and already miss her. But I'm glad it ended this way.

For the handful of you who are not following me from Tumblr: Arwen's health has taken a turn and must leave us. I'm getting her a cheeseburger for her wake tonight ahead of her appointment tomorrow. please walk your dog or play with your cat, & take time today to give them your undivided attention.

Thank god for adhd medication

Had a good walk with Arwen, Miss Crime Dog is fifteen this year!

Thanks for sharing! I'm going to get that blood test done (better to be safe than sorry) and make sure my parents get their boosters.

So According to a Q&A with Tite Kubo, Orihime's powers were originally supposed to take on a draconic form, but this was abandoned for... reasons. FORTUNATELY, I AIN'T A COWARD OR OWNED BY SHONEN JUMP:

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

I wrote a thing. It, like many of my things, got slightly longer than initially intended. :P But I had a lot of fun with it. #Buddie #DisasterMedia www.katy-l-wood.com/post/from-th...

One of the few good things about this time of year is the albedo, and getting the occasional lavender sky.

Hippocampus

An egg? Nope, this is a fungus! Cryptoporus volvatus/veiled polypore. It is caused by the pine bark beetle, which chews holes in them and carries the spores to other dead trees. Scroll down for an in situ view. 1 of 3 posts about this today. #fungifriends #forestfloor #fungi #mycology
