Jill Kelley supposedly worked as a liaison with Special Operations Command. On that basis, I can imagine that someone would want to look at it just to make sure that it didn't blow back on SOC.

Dog does not have a microchip. I can bring him to Animal Control tomorrow. Have borrowed a crate from the Humane Society to house him tonight.

Judging from his reaction when I left him alone in the house for 30 seconds while I got the crate out of the car, I don't think this is going to be a restful night for either of us.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Echidna puggle update:

Excellent!

My own echidna update: the family Tea visited Healesville Sanctuary on the weekend. Ryan helped the keepers feed the ducks. But his highlight was that not only were the echidnas active while we were there, it was feeding time! (They get fed a nutritious paste.) The little man was thrilled.

Echidnas also, quite rightly, get a mention in this article: [link]

move out and draw fire

Yeah, the FBI involvement has been bothering me too. And what is Kelley? She isn't really State, so I guess she is a political appointee? Broadwell may end up getting the Manning treatment, not because she posted as much info as he did out of a stated desire to do so, but because therer is more going on here than we know.

Oh, dear, Dana. Can you fit the crate in your bedroom, so the dog doesn't feel alone?

I had to have the St. Bernard sleep in the same room with me: if he's left alone for very long he starts to cry and bark.

But now I'm back in my own home bundled in my favorite sweatshirt. I cleaned my house and put new sheets on my bed and there's only one dog in the house, yay. (Of course she's lone, but sorry kid.)

My payoff for the dogsitting was a necklace, some earrings, and a nice bottle of Pisco from duty-free. And my sister is taking my folks to the psychiatrist so I don't have to, yay.

I could fit the crate in the bedroom. I don't know if that would make it better or worse.

If he has separation anxiety, it could help. Has he napped in the same room as you?

Our wings are not tired.

CaBil! Long time no see. How are you?

That's all I got at the moment as I am running out the door.

He's done nothing but sleep since I brought him in this morning. Just conks right out on the carpet. Or in the car. The only problem was trying to navigate roundabouts. He kept sliding around.
