THE STORY OF LAURA AND THE DOG

We put Princess down today. She had cancer. The tumor was large and was making it hard for her to go to the bathroom. We gave her diapers to catch the bleeding from the mass and she was on painkillers, anti-inflammatories, and a stool softener. The vet said it would only be a short time until her urine backed up and caused kidney failure. But it still feels like a betrayal, since she seemed happy and active because of the medication. She was a good dog. I’ve had her since I was nine, and she was part of the family.

My new hobby is creating poetry through Siri.

I watched Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs over and over again when I was a kid. For some reason I was telling Kevin about it yesterday and was trying to remember what it was called. A few internet searches and youtube videos later, we discovered it had a kickstarter page to raise money for a DVD release that ended in 6 days. I donated $20 to the cause, and I’m eagerly awaiting my DVD.

Brooklyn has just as much to offer as Manhattan - except cheaper and less crowded.

It’s like Christmas. I should search for things I worked on more often. This was my only first-person experience of Fashion Week.

Sometimes things I record sound for go up on the internet.

I have a place to live!

Moving to an awesome apartment in Gowanus by Brooklyn Boulders. Looking forward to Brooklyn.

Greg and I won a catered dinner for 2 from Mexicue. They brought us enough food for 15 people. It was awesome.
