(untitled)
Mrs. Mack 5o5 handed me the package with a tear in her eye. “Open it.” I knew what the box contained. Inside the cardboard, wrapped in tissue paper, was a beautifully finished small wooden box. . . —— In the spring of 2000, five kittens were born to a wild mother in a small feral […]

Take your dog to work
So the internet has decreed that today was Take Your Dog to Work Day. At first I thought it wouldn't work, then I reconsidered. Long stretches on the couch. Blasting across town, head out the open window, tongue lolling in the wind. Howling along with the siren. Yeah, Cricket might enjoy it too. 🙂 […]

Project 366 – 39, 40, 41
I reached the end of the week feeling short on photographs, but a spin through the Photostream saved the day. 2/8 – I spent the day in the Training Division. The class was good, but the biggest thing I learned is that I can’t stand the commute. I haven’t had to do the 9-5 Boston […]
