GLP-1s and Thanksgiving are not a great combination. But the situation has further reinforced my view that dessert belongs in the morning after. I enjoy it so much more when I’m not stuffed from dinner.

Guess who got his first walk on the beach today? You’d never know he had a major surgery a week ago. And, unlike some dogs I know, he did not growl at any children of guests during our dinner party.

What’s the German word for when you go to take a lovely picture of an animal but it pees or shits instead? I have so many of those.

When a woman consumes it it is trashy True Crime. When a man consumes it, it is very serious Criminal Justice reporting. It’s so weird that we ever pretend otherwise.

I was so sure Beetle would spend the day wiped from surgery. Instead he is bizarrely energized, zipping around, nuzzling for affection, and generally delighting me.

Ok so I took some time, did deep breathing, talked to a friend, and still the quiet piggy thing is making me incandescent with rage. Is there a 800# for this?

I think I have my infinite anger in check and then I read quiet piggy stuff and I realize I have so much more work to do to keep from exploding. May these motherfuckers never know what is in my heart.

When nature takes him, as it takes us all, perhaps his entire obituary will simply read “quiet, piggy”

Or his gravestone.

the Democratic Party should have 2 major goals for the next time it holds power: (1) completely rebuild the destroyed federal government capacity, and (2) crush the GOP, which enabled so much corruption and immiseration. destroy their funding, jail their leaders, make it so a new party has to emerge

All these people belong in prison for their punctuation alone. Well not alone I guess. In addition to all the other reasons they belong in prison.

Many meetings today that made me cranky and sad. In the middle of one, the dogs pulled all the beds out of the study into the sunbeam in the living room. Crankiness 100% eliminated.

A whole lot of step sister energy in the death stare Bertie gives Beetle he gets attention from anyone.

He always wants to play and snuggle closer, but it’s stunning how bad his mouth smells. I can’t wait until we can get the go ahead to see a dentist from the vets looking at his jaw. Good thing he’s so cute.

When Beetle was in the shelter they listed him as an intact male. I took him in to be neutered and … no testicles found. Also he’s now 10 lbs rather the the 11 the shelter had. So apparently he had enormous balls that he somehow misplaced during his ride up here.

Bertie, who has never turned down food before in her life, has declared a hunger strike because Beetle gets wet food and she doesn’t not. Beetle is happy with any food at all but he gets wet because this is his jaw.

Long day in the car driving to Arlington and back to pick up little Beetle, but not as long as his trip all the way from a shelter in Apple Valley, CA. He’s absolutely as sweet as can be, lovey, playful, and apparently unfazed by his ordeal.

Meet the Beetle! He’s on his way to me from a shelter California to be fostered until he finds his forever home. He’s slightly dented but all reports are that he is super sweet despite what he’s been through.

Ok but hear me out. What if our reward for winning that game was not having to play SD thrice? What if the reward was a nice handshake and a nap under a warm blanket?
