Drew, tons of hugs for you! Focus on the good times and the excellent life lessons you had with him. And I stand with my Bitches with the sentiment, Fuck Cancer.
Shir, tons of brackets for you too! {{{{{ Shir! }}}}} Peace and comfort~ma to your whole family. Lou was a cutie, and he was very lucky to have such a loving family.
FredPete, Cat~ma for you.
Pix, glad to hear the Dread Pirate Byron will be ok, and that you caught it early.
Also Pix, good luck with the interview class teaching. Glad to hear the teacher has a good sense of humor. Hopefully that means the kids are equally relaxed and cool!
ION- I'm torn. Boss said take the next 2 days off due to previously mentioned crazy HR policy with holiday reimbursements. But there is a ton of stupid shit that needs doing before I leave. From finding all my tools/cables/etc all around to reports that need doing before I leave. Worker bee in me says go in and do it. Short timer in me is saying fuck it. I'm thinking of just going in late and trying to leave early as a compromise.
bonny, I got the one with the PDF in my spam folder, but that's it. Resend when you get a chance, please?

IOn, I just found out today I can't sign up for Delta Dental during Insurance Open Enrollment this year.
Apparently, if you do not have other dental Insurance, and do not sign up at the first open enrollment you are eligible for, you cannot sign up for a dental plan unless you have undergone a significant life event like getting married. "Life changes include a marriage, birth, adoption, divorce or death of a family member."
So the fact that this year they actually have a reasonably affordable plan doesn't qualify.
Grr Argh.
Lou looks like a wonderful dog. I'm so sorry, Shir.
I don't know that I see much pit bull there. Look at this brindle boxer: [link] I can't say much about dog behavior, since I own the dog mostly likely to bite your ankle.
And fuck cancer in all its forms.

Would adopting a cat count?
Sorry, that sucks....
I finished making my lunch for tomorrow. A spinach, fennel, and beet salad with some walnuts, and an orange miso ginger dressing that ended up looking pink. The recipe called for arugula, not spinach, but I don't really like arugula.
I found a penny on one of the dog beds when I came home today.
I don't know if they left me a tip, or they've started pooping currency. (I suppose it could be both, really.)
