shit. puppy's in heat. if only i'd gotten her spayed yesterday...

i found a stray last night. this one didn't follow me home like the last one, she took a lot of convincing that i wasn't taking her to chop her up for my dinner, but i wasn't just going to leave her running around a busy industrial area.

i decided yesterday that i actually do like valentine's day. the reason why it started is stupid, of course, but i like the idea of celebrating love. so i bought flowers, and i made cupcakes, and i bought some delicious apple cider (newton's folly at trader joe's is the best apple cider i've had so far) and i bought delicious super torta burritos ( ( Read more... )

i've become somewhat obsessed about reading the lj of one of my favorite authors. she only started her blog a couple months ago (ok, september) and when i first read it, i realized i didn't know what she was talking about, so i decided to go back and read ALL of it. from the beginning. now i find myself sitting with an hour or more trickling away ( Read more... )
