These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

Ugh. I had to reschedule a meeting this morning because past me was over-confident in my ability to be awake, functional, and at the office before 8:30am on a Monday.

What the hell, past self?

Depends on the dog, but panting is pretty normal when it's hot.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sorry, I wasn't clear about that. It's not that he pants, just that it happens even after 30 seconds outside, and that it takes him a while to stop.

That's not strange. If it's new behavior it might be more concerning.

Okay, I will stop worrying unless he develops something new. He's such a sweet dog. Tail's always wagging unless he's asleep.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

>My neighbor, OTOH, still has his Bernie sign up. Give it up, dude!

You know that Walter Koenig and his wife are our neighbors, right? They had a huge Bernie sign up in their yard until the day she won the votes, when it was replaced with an equally huge Hillary sign.

Our dog does that. He's just regulating his temperature. And as long as he has plenty of water and shade (or is inside in a cool area), he'll be fine.

Thanks. My parents' dog is small, so I don't have long-term experience with a big guy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

See, that's what I'm talking about!

On a semi-related note, there was a huge Star Trek convention in Last Vegas last week, and we happened to be there. So that was generally hilarious, as it seemed like everyone in the casino was in at least a Starfleet uniform, if not full Vulcan makeup. But I'm sure I saw the guy who played Tuvok just walking by!
