I have to hand it to the event organizers. The band members all had VIP passes and there were a bunch of other little details.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

So, Darby and I are a week in and seem to be settling in together. She's a tough nut to figure out sometimes and I think she's still withholding judgment on the whole deal. But! She came and laid down in my room yesterday while I took a nap. This is a big step for her, since it's the first time I've seen her relax enough to sit or lie down outside of the study which she's claimed as her spot. I don't have her all figured out yet (and v.v.) but we're getting there.
The tally thus far:
Things she likes/wants:
Walks
Her room
Her bed
My friend Carla
Things she (so far) does not like/want:
Dog treats of any kind
Cheese
Kong toys
Stuffed animals
Hanging on the deck
To eat the cat (sorry Dad)
Playing or cuddling
None of this is a surprise - she's been in shelters for a long time and seems to have been treated harshly, if not abused, in the past. She spent about six weeks in a foster home and they were very up front that it took her a few weeks to get comfortable and come out of her shell. She's still sweet as all hell.

Brenda- Your Dad wants Darby to eat the cat?

Well, he was constantly telling the old dog to do so, so I'm extrapolating. (It's a joke, obviously.)

At church, lovely day out. I hope it does not rain as predicted. On today's agenda while mac is with uncle g: NY tees for mac, trip to the strand, home to pack a few boxes, hopefully at least one person to come pick up some items.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, this goofball I went to grad school with (and had a crush on) is running for office Back Home. We've really only been in Facebook contact for years, so my main reaction to this campaign is: At least it made him cut his hair!! Because I am ridiculous. And also his hair was terrible.

Wasn't that the big lesson of Queer Eye? Get a haircut!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
It sounds like Darby landed in exactly the right place, for both of you.
And for the cat too, from the sounds of it.

Lucky Darby for having such a thoughtful mom!
Franny looks GREAT.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Rock on, Franny! That is awesome.
We just passed a billboard in Indiana that siad, "Vote the Liberals out in 2010." So glad I don't live here anymore.
