Just talked with the vet, Oz gets to come home today, just one night at the vet instead of the expected 2. He is responding to the insulin, but is not eating much at the vet and the vet thinks he will do better with eating at home. YAY.

I like how Mazdas handle, but I'm not a huge fan of their interiors.

I looked at a Mazda 3 to replace my 19 year old Saab, but after 30 years of European restraint I couldn't get past the shiny zoom-zoom interior.

So new brakes and and new muffler for the Saab, in the hopes that it will last until the next generation VW Golf arrives in the US in a couple of years.

Punishingly Intricate

Thanks for the Ford C Max recommendation, ND. We'll try that one! & we were definitely going to drive an Impreza.

Trust my rage

Growing up in MN, school started the day after Labor Day and ended around Jun 9. Here in CO, it ends the last day before Memorial Day and starts mid-August

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I have this calendar that is pictures of surprising animal friends, and this month's is this picture: [link] Doesn't the dog look exactly like Benedict Cumberbatch??

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Doesn't the dog look exactly like Benedict Cumberbatch??

It's a shame it's not with a hedgehog instead of an owl.

Overheard a sad conversation in the pharmacy. Two girls were out with someone who wasn't their primary caretaker--sounded like grandma, maybe. Upon hearing she could get *two* things, one of the girls (maybe 7?) rushed and grabbed a ball, about volleyball sized.

"No, not that!"
"You said two things! This is my second thing!"
"Isn't that Batman?"
"Yes..."
"I thought you liked princesses? What happened to princesses?"
"Nothing. But I want this too."
"No."

She did also later urge them to be skinny. The older one couldn't have been 13 yet.

My ex-team is slacking SO hard with boss and manager out of the office. They disappear for hours at a time during the day, come in late, leave early, and spend the rest of the time on the phone in Hindi while they surf ESPN.com, etc.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

"I thought you liked princesses? What happened to princesses?"

"Turns out, Gramma, that Batman KICKS ALL THE PRINCESSES' ASSES!"

Hey. New board.

Whatever. Princess Leia carries a blaster.
