From bedridden last winter to walking 100+ miles of the #Camino this summer. LDN was truly a lifesaver!

Day 3! Beautiful walk. Air quality much better between Samos and Sarria than Las HerrerΓ­as and FonfrΓ­a. Breathing easier and uphill hikes less taxing. #BuenCamino!

Must be methods handbook season! Sending our Appreciative Inquiry Methods Handbook off to the publisher soon. So many tedious edits to go! πŸ˜†

A review for a Little Caesar’s somewhere by Kevin S: 

Stopped into this Little Caesars just trying to get a $6 pizza and ended up in a full on action movie. Just as I grabbed my order, this furious dude barges in yelling about how I cut him off in traffic earlier.
Before I can even respond, he throws a punch but then out of nowhere the guy behind the counter jumps over it like he's been waiting for this moment his whole life and just beats the living hell out of the guy. The guy ran off and the cashier just dusted himself off. I said "are you ok man" and he looked me dead in the eye and said "B*tch, this is Little Caesars. We always hot and ready."
Five stars. Will absolutely return.

Those look like mammary tumors. My pup Lila had a huge one removed before it ulcerated. Important health tip: These are too common in unspayed/intact females. Wish I had known sooner. Yet another great reason to spay your dogs!

I used to know Faulkner pretty well when I was in college.

They eventually told me to remove the corpse from my dorm room, though.

I think about the possibility of deleting the code/memory of a particularly troubling person I dated. Then I think, no, if I deleted the lesson, I might run into him, fall for him, and have to learn the painful, humiliating lesson all over again. πŸ₯Ί

Currently recovering from a broken foot after jumping up in the shower to swat a moth. To be clear, I didn’t break it on the jump, broke it on the very slippery landing. (Luckily the foot was all I broke!)

Very important lesson learned that day: Don’t jump in the shower! (Duh.) πŸ˜‚
