Excellent adulting, Tom!
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I drove up to Sacramento and met four lovely rescue dogs, and brought one home. She is now pacing unstoppably through the house, although periodically laying down on the futon for a minute or two.
No name yet, I haven't decided. But she's a small shepherd, with a dark face and lovely lighter-colored eyebrows. Big ear action as well.

I mean, he’s gonna, either way.
I am not working on culling the closet because my back has been aching and now it’s spasming, so I’m throwing meds at it and lying flat.

Good times, Tom! I do not envy your evening. But that medical nap tomorrow will be amazing. I think colonoscopy day should be like new years day, a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. Everything is cleaned out, so it's a great time to start fresh with new intentions. Like "solid foods."

Punishingly Intricate
My beloved aunt’s beloved husband passed this morning. My mom and I were able to spend time with him a couple of weeks ago and could tell it wouldn’t be long but ughhhhh. It fucking sucks. He was one of the best people.
