I want to write a bit about my dog. But I think I'll save that until tomorrow. Instead, I'll provide an anecdote about today.

My mother called me at work today to tell me that they had to euthanize my dog. I promptly took a lunch break and walked to the gas station. The woman who rang me up asked if my coworkers had given me a list, as if I'd taken orders. I could only chuckle. I got heaps of junk food. And to think I'd only just decided not to spend any more money on such things.
