Debated posting this.Please ignore the pine needles all over the floor. It is a neverending battle to try to keep those bits and the dirt swept up when they go out a million times a day. This was the end of Friday's meet-pup. They had already sniffed each other. @floregonian.com

They are the brightest part of my every day, and I am so very, very proud of both of them for all they have already, and continue to, overcome.

If there's one thing I am really, really good at, it's pissing complete strangers off at random. 😅

Sometimes you have to pull over and get the shot. Sorry for the aphid sap all over the mirror. It's that time of year, and the whole car is covered within minutes of washing. I hate it.

I weep for the fucking future.
