poor puppy

Unfortunately I awoke this morning to find that my dog Chopper had gotten a scratch on her eye from the puppy. She looked so sad and pathetic, her eye was all weepy and blinking. So I spent a good portion of the day and a bunch of money getting her eye all straightened out. The good news is the vet said she should be fine by Thursday though! Whew! They gave her one of those plastic cones so she wouldn’t itch the medicine out, and it just breaks my heart to look at her.

Since the first thing I did this morning was take her to the vet I’ve just been kinda slumming it today in t-shirt and Chucks. So I hope you enjoy my pseudo-conservative Christmas outfit! (I always have to kind of tone it down for my extended family.)

And I forgot to post a final picture of the Max costume I was working on. It came out pretty darn well if I do say so! The whiskers were definitely the best part, they stuck out perfectly. And Maxman was thrilled to say the least. He had a really high temperature the night I dropped it off, but as soon as he saw it he jumped right up. He ran around me yelling “be still” for like 5 minutes. It was beyond adorable.

just another day as a fake librarian

I am pretty much always the ridiculously over-dressed person at my job as a shelver at the downtown Cincinnati Public Library, but it never bothers me. : ) I wish I didn’t make such dumb faces though. Oh well!
