While friends suffer the city of my youth burning, it's week 2 of the worst bronchitis ever, and I found out yesterday that a close friend died. It's the apocalypse before the antichrist takes possession of the country.

I wonder if the stock of Xanax is going to go up now? Maybe we should hoard it instead of toilet paper.
Today, for my birthday, my daughter baked me a cake, waited on me and the dogs while I graded my students' essays. Not a bad birthday at all! (Okay, I might have bought myself a few Black Friday things but, you know, it was on sale! I could not resist temptation).
02.12.2024 06:24 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0As soon as I saw that dog, I knew he was going to win. He has such a great presence and personality. He knew he was all that and a bag of chips.
