Good signs on the Abigail-the-dog-with-the-too-large-brain. She's been visiting today again, and her disposition is like 150% better, just with the mild pain meds she's been put on.
I just requested a duplicate title to my beloved (but decrepit) Forester, because while I feel like kind of a traitor to trade it in, it's time. SNIFF -- my first ever 'new' car.

A while ago someone wrote an opinion piece about dogs being bred for appearance rather than being functional and commented that King Charles spaniels often have brains too large for their skulls so that they scream in pain. Made my blood run cold.

That's horrible, Toddson. I read that pugs have problems with their eyes due to breeding for appearances, too.
Go team mutt.

Poor dogs. I'm glad to hear Abigail is helped by the meds.
Wow, Todd! Early birthday greetings, that is quite a milestone to reach!

How do you do that? That might be what i need to do with my beloved but decrepit Corolla (we paid off the loan but don't have a title on file with California (because we took out the loan in Louisiana? I'm very uncertain about the whole thing))

Wow, happy early birthday, Toddson!!

Question: If I told someone I was available "in the afternoon," do I have any grounds to be eye-rolly about the fact that they came back asking if I could do 11-3? I realize most of that time is technically in the afternoon.

A little eye rolling is in order. Maybe a third of the usual amount.
At least they asked, though.

I'm trying a partial eyeroll right now and going from right side-eye up to generally straight up feels about right.

Thank you! That is perfect.
