Donate to Help Zoey Beat Leukemia, organized by Julie Bendle Help Zoey Beat Leukemia Zoey is a precocious, funny, and determined 3-year-old who loves unicorn… Julie Bendle needs your support for Help Zoey Beat Leukemia

My neighbors just up the street from us own A-squared pizza in Charlottesville, and their youngest was recently diagnosed with leukemia.

Their family is really nice, and this is a huge bummer right before the holidays. A GoFundMe has been set up for the family to help with everything.

Feeling very sore - had it off all night with a divorced guy. "Coming" back tonight - has to climb in through the window. Feeling very shaky.

For this week’s #TerrierTuesday it’s a #HighVis theme. Did you know that Westies were bred to be high vis?? In the 19th Century, a Scottish Laird lost his beloved Cairn Terrier in a shooting accident so created a breed with a bright white coat to avoid it ever happening again.

From his 2nd album; a superb introduction to the wry, OTT and lush talent that is Rufus Wainwright.
