Second Dog is recovering from surgery. It's been a week since her spay, and we've been wondering when High Energy Collie would return.
As for us, younger child brought back a fever and sore throat from school, as they always do after about a month. They gave it to me.
So yesterday, having taken a few days off work, I had finished a round of Feeding Kids and Administering Medicines and was settling down for a very much needed nap. Second Dog appeared, in a perky mood, and…

From a marketing and packaging perspective, AI has been terrible.
It's like a hot dog vendor showing you what goes into a hot dog, telling you how to maximize your hot dog-enjoying experience, which end to bite first, and maybe you're using the wrong bread. Oh btw, the next hot dog will taste better, we promise.
It's antithetical to any product I've ever seen marketed and pushed into a mass market.

Firefighters rescued a small dog that had been missing for weeks after finding it swimming into the San Francisco Bay.
The dog had gone missing over the Fourth of July weekend, according to the Menlo Park fire protection district.

Today the Second Dog, who is a gloriously daft and affectionate collie, has gone to be spayed. She came to us from the rescue home as "spayed, vaccinated, one elderly woman owner, didn't know what she was getting into" and all of that was lies. The rescue home said she was an escape artist, not to be trusted (and it is true, she can open most gates and doors).
She was probably chucked from a puppy farm because one of the litters went wrong; we think she may have suffered…

Packers' Lukas Van Ness emerges in comeback OT win over Jets: 'He's a dog' https://www.nfl.com/news/packers-lukas-van-ness-emerges-in-comeback-ot-win-over-jets-he-s-a-dog

One new thing I’ve learn about living with a dog is that when he sleeps, he often wants physical contact.

Went over to visit my daughter yesterday and thus the wee one got to visit his aunt, play with her dog, and feed a peacock. Definitely a worthwhile outing in his opinion.
Daughter and the wee one feeding Frank while the grand-dog ignores the entire proceedings, and chews on a lovely stick.

Many enraged psychiatrists are inciting a weary butcher. The butcher is
weary and tired because he has cut meat and steak and lamb for hours and
weeks. He does not desire to chant about anything with raving psychiatrists,
but he sings about his gingivectomist, he dreams about a single cosmologist,
he thinks about his dog. The dog is named Herbert.
