2020 continues to be a gigantic mirror maze. When we're finally comfortable enough to move forward a few steps we run right into a pane of glass. New Jersey is slowly 'opening back up' because our transmission rate has fallen so much. Yay for everyone who's going out. Me? I'm staying home as much as I can. I didn't go to any BLM protests because I do not want to catch COVID. I'm cycling through all sorts of guilt about that. TNP has us all working from home until after Labor Day. I cried a ...

Election 2006
Here's some voting we can all care about! Old Navy is looking for their new "Magic" mascot. The original "Magic" was a terrier mix who was rescued from the streets of San Jose. (Wikipedia) Terrier dog? Rescued from the streets? Can this be kismet?? Max is "competing" against 119325 other dogs. Old Navy will pick 6 finalists, and the public will "vote" on the winner. I'm sure this is as fixed as the day is long. But maybe Max has a slight chance. Then again, he's up against much younger ...
Update in photos
Easter, sadly, doesn't really mean much to me anymore. I'm still trying to find my way, religion-wise, so I didn't observe Lent or go to Mass. I don't go to church on a regular Sunday, so I'd feel hypocritical going on Easter. In any case, it was a nice spring day, capped with dinner out and some time with Mom. And Chipper. (you'll notice that my nice brown haircolor is fading. I can't win) Chipper's doing well. He's a non-stop bundle of energy (read: he's tearing Mom's house to shreds), ...

Introducing Chipper
(aka Chip, Chip-Chip, Microchip) He's half beagle, half poodle - a mix that breeders call "Poobie" or "Poogle" but I call "mutt." I think it means he's going to end up a shaggy beagle. He's six pounds, 9 ounces (all in that fat puppy belly) and he's the newest resident at MomnJohn's house. Likes: chewing, fuzzy tennis balls, chewing, shoes, chewing, naps, chewing, rawhide, chewing Dislikes: not chewing, stopping chewing, the absence of chewing We brought him home on Saturday. He's been ...
