Vet didn’t have time to do X-rays but she did a check on our doggo and nothing presents as broken and/or torn. She’s thinking she sprained something so we’re on limited activity this weekend and if limping persists then we’ll do X-rays Monday.

Until then she’s got pain and anti inflammatory meds.

Can’t sleep. Youngest dog hurt herself while we were playing - loud yelp & some limping. Her limp got less and less but later she stepped & yelped. again. Probably not a tear as she’s putting weight on it, but.. I hate to see her hurting.

Tomorrow will be a vet visit if she’s still in pain.

Oh look, he’s engaged and answering questions almost as if this hysteria over his age was a deliberate clickbait creation.

It’s going to be a long ass road to get to November. I firmly believe Biden will stay and win but the media is going to make this a particularly unbearable wait.

The youngest doggo had one heckuva night as we put her new flirt pole to the test and she got to run and run and run.

There are honestly days living in Arkansas in 2023 where I look at my dog happily rolling around all 4 feet in the air in a pile of mud and dog sh*t and think “I wonder what the Arkansas legislature is doing today?“

Been busy learning my new roll as the parental chew toy over the past few months. What’d I miss?

One of the perks(?) of being out of sorts lately is that I’ve found solace in listening to music. This week a new live album reminded me of a release I loved at the time and yet forgot as life and other music swept into my life. Elvis Costello and the Imposters dropped a live album where they ran through their “The Boy Named If” album in its entirety.. and it’s so so good as was the album itself when it came out earlier in the year. #ElvisCostello #MastodonMusic

Went get this tooth extracted and now I’m supposed to keep biting on this gauze to stop bleeding only I can’t feel my mouth and the gauze keeps moving and causing me to gag.. fun fun fun times..

For every moment, I think that our youngest dog is pretty smart for her age there are 37 moments where she proves me wrong. Case in point she’s currently sniffing and searching, frantically to find a wasp that has stung her repeatedly as she’s tried to eat it.

Something about angry, flying jalapeños, apparently is delicious to this dog. Now I think I understand those guys who say spice doesn’t bother them as they cry and choke down a ghost pepper.

Caught the Willie Mays documentary and I think I enjoyed the end cut scenes as much as the film itself with Willie just joshing and giving the crew all the bs he could toss their way. What a legend. #Baseball #WillieMays

Now that I’ve been here a little while I guess tossing an introduction out is called for?

I’m an over the hill #Cajun who finds himself living in #Arkansas and (most amazingly) very close to celebrating my 19th anniversary to the love of my life.

Before Gatehouse shut it down I ran a team doing Composition and Layout for 11 #Newspapers across two states and miss it terribly. I still #Freelance Ad #design and #magazine-layout for the small papers that survived the closings with new owners.

On a whim - mostly due to enjoying Delilah Dawson’s books in the same world - I grabbed a three pack of #Minecraft books from a Black Friday display at our local Big Box store. First out of the box is one by Max Brooks and it’s freaking charming.

Apparently on the downhill side of fifty it appears charming and enjoyable overcomes any embarrassment I might feel over reading kids books based on a game I’ve never played.
