Beginning to worry about Mikey. He’s sleeping a lot more. And while he normally sleeps alone in his dog bed and the pack generally ignores him, the past 2 days the dogs have been essentially sitting vigil with him. At least I know that, he won’t be alone if he passes while we are asleep or away.

On this Superb Owl Sunday, grateful for time in my fave tea shop for reading and getting to work on my project the next 3 plus months. Also I present this stunning owl that G and I saw at Freddie’s a couple nights ago. He was hunting for a great dinner snack! 🦉📚🍵

Happy Lunar New Year to all those celebrating! 🏮🐍🧧🪭

Library haul day!!!! And even better, their second hand shop I was able to buy Caste for $3. Read the Dalai Lama book A Call for Revolution in an hour. I think every young person under 30 should read. Starting on American Sutra about the stories of Japanese Americans surviving internment camps.

I managed to come down with presumed strep throat and all I want is soft comfort food so gojuchang butter eggs hit the spot. Yay for a huge injection of steroids making it so I could eat! 🍚🥚🤒

It’s cold, the world is hella stressful and I’m feeling a tad under the weather. All I want is spicy kimchi ramen with a fried egg, dog snuggles and tea. Also, the little mug warmer I bought to keep my tea toasty is literally the best $25 I have ever spent. Y’all, it’s COZY season!!!! ☕️🫖🧣🍜🍳🐕

Ok community!!! We need to step up big time to support this family who has lost both parents. Candice gave sooooo much to advocate and fight for this community and now we owe it to her to fight for her family now. Let’s show what love in action looks like. We take care of each other!!!!!! ❤️‍🩹💞

I unexpectedly lost a patient, very upsetting. Then I remembered sitting on the edge of the hospital bed with them and hugging them close because they didn’t feel well. I was the last person on this plane to hug them. I was genuinely present and actually really did care. What a fucking privilege.
