No wonder I'm so exhausted. She/her.
Life today lol
On the upside, I am collecting a lot of rainwater to use for my new little Carnivorous Plant Child for whom tap water is apparently deadly!
I don't regret winning CPC at the silent auction, but the chainsaw might have been nice too...

My Kimi would run in as big of a circle as she could in the dog park.

The other dogs would "pace" her by running in a circle half the diameter 😂

The goose is doing his best. He is holding a knife, after all.

I now have a wee buddy to keep my @secondlina.com crow company! Welcome to the flock, Gay Crime Goose! @gaybreakfast.bsky.social

My first girl loved to lay on her back with all her legs sticking straight up and out
My second boy loved his squishy bed and his armchair, but sometimes seemed to have ... assembly issues 😂

I didn't get a screenshot of that comment on Facebook, but I did think to take one of the comment I left on Instagram that also got deleted and me banned from there as well.

This doubling down of their mistakes and bringing the banhammer down on everyone is so freaking sad.

The other day at work we needed a way to randomize which samples we picked to age. "Hold on!" I cried, and hauled my bag of fish dice from @greenleafgeek.bsky.social out of my desk. "I've got more of these! I bought a whole bag of seconds!"
So now the whole Sablefish team has fish dice to D&D with!

Little dude wandered into the lab somehow. I think it was an escaped seagull snack.

My girl Kimi was the Bestest Doggo. Bert was also Bestest but he took longer to settle in to home life, and was always an absolute doof. Whatever you do, set aside money in a dental fund - Bert had no teeth by the end.

Obligatory Pup Pic. Kimi always loved her jammies

Oh glob, my boy Bert won some races in the B league, but he wasn't the most focused. I found a video of him on the track and while all the other dogs looked like they had laser focus, Bert very distinctly had the attitude of "WHEEEEEEEEEEEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" For the entire length of the track.
