Sad News


Well, this isn't much fun, and for that I'm sorry.


A couple weeks ago, my folks gave me a call to let me know that Max, the neurotic but lovable black lab, had passed away. She was struggling to breathe, and both of her hind legs had been pretty bad for the past couple years, so it was for the best. Still, this was a bummer, as I will always remember her running around the pool, eager for you to throw a twig or even a leaf for her to go fetch.

I'm also glad that I got to see her in March when I was at home, and we played a bit with the orange retriever dummy.
*Grrrrf*
Sorry for the down note. Back to regular, fun posts here shortly (first summer session is wrapping up, so know I have to knuckle down and shake the "i have all summer" mentality).
