rats, i missed my deadline yesterday. that's me snapping in frustration. but the upshot is that i'm working fairly productively today. it helps that it's 225 degrees outside and i have no desire to partake in my usual outdoor distractions. after all, yesterday i was out walking with arlo in the afternoon and got yelled at for abusing my dog by taking him out in the heat. i tried to suggest that dogs need to go outside to use the facilities even in the summer and that after ten year with arlo i have a pretty good sense of his desires and limitations, but she was having none of it. i kept wondering if she would have stopped me had i been out with a child...

If this interloper knew you had killed a mouse just days before, what would they think? Maybe they'd call People Control?

That's a great story. It's what you get for living over there in hippy-boro. Those animal rights people...they can be intolerable.

So if you need another deadline, writing group needs something sent out by tomorrow!
