It just occurs to me

That Adam married a crazy dog lady.

Witness the following:

"We should get BOTH of them!" (2010)
"Wanna go with me on a transport?" (2011, 2012, 2013 and so on)
"I want to save this dog in Carson even though we're up here in Berkeley ..." (2014)

I'm damn lucky he doesn't kill me.

Kind of touching, it is

Angela texted me today and said that she saw a woman being wheeled out of the hospital with her new baby. She is beaming, she wrote. Thinking of you.

I have been in happy hormonal near-tears half the day thinking of meeting my Poppy. Our Poppy. Walking a dog (Luna!) for Family Dog Rescue today, I ran into my friend Caitlin, newly back from overseas. "You look great," she said. "I see the terror and the excitement in your face."

Right she is. For sure.

Exciting news!

I am thrilled to say that I have signed an author agreement with Miriam Altshuler at Miriam Altshuler Literary Agency. I am so excited to make this leap forward!

Sing it, stud

"I don't know what's going to happen, but I'll tell you this, man: I'm going to have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames." - Jim Morrison

Wrote this to Adam just now

OMG. I was getting all teary in the shower (with my shower buddy Jack lying right outside as I shaved my legs) thinking about when we adopted them. (Or, rather, when they chose us.) I could’ve lived happily if I only had you … though I always knew I wanted a doggy in my life. Then comes Poppy, and Poppy makes five. I can’t even comprehend how much love and life is going to surround this little boy. OUR LITTLE BOY.
