Pix, I meant to say that I am glad there are also good people like the ones who rescue those beautiful dogs.
We had a delicious vegetable curry for dinner. With so much weekend activity lately, I am having trouble keeping up with all of the CSA veg we have.
Nora, the BP thing didn't even occur to me, but that makes sense.
How awesome is that?
That is pretty damn awesome. Wow!
Frankie boy is sprawled on me as I watch SYTYCD. He is so the perfect dog for me.
Jilli, have you ever seen that exhibit in person? You would love it.
I have almost sprinted through it once, because through a comedy of errors, we only had about an hour at the V&A the time we went. If we go to the UK this fall, I am spending A DAY there.
She and her family have fostered and placed 120 dogs (pups and full grown) in the past 18 months. How awesome is that?
Pretty durned awesome! Especially placing the full grown dogs, which I understand to be a challenge.
In other news, Leifur has been scratching himself a fair bit lately, and he's starting to show bald spots. I'll have to get him to the vet this weekend. He's flea free, but it could be allergies. I'm sort of inclined to think it's him getting freaked out by being stuck in the apartment for the past week or two, due to the heat wave. Maybe I shouldn't have named him after a Viking explorer.

Of course! Hadn't even thought about that. (Still think it's stupid, but it makes a bit more sense.)
Sean, sad that the London leg of your trip has started out so disappointingly but I'm sure that any of the lovely museums in London will be excellent to hang out. Love that they are free. When I was in London I went to the National Gallery and it was lovely to go in, spend hours in the morning and then go outside, eat lunch, and go back in and spend more hours.
Looking forward to hearing your report about War Horse. I'm jealous that you're getting to see it.
Sean, I am jealous of the POTENTIAL of museums you can go to. Good luck making a decision. So much to do, so little time to do it. That said, there's nothing wrong with just taking a breath of air and chilling. I know my trip to DC got a bit over saturated with museums and history. It pained me to give up. Had to.
Tomorrow, I get one day of walking around London, maybe seeing a sight or two,
Am I the only one who thought "Hey look kids, there's Big Ben, and there's Parliament." What? It's two sights!

You MUST go back sometime. I was amazed at some of the underthings. There was one that was a heavy wooden board kept up by suspenders that gave the skirt that went on top of it its wide appearance.
