The Pack 7/28

Coco was forlorn when her daddy took her big sisters to visit grandma.  She might growl ferociously at the big girls when they hop on my her bed in the morning, and she might steal Nyla bones from them.  She is the littlest member of the pack, though, and her ties to the rest of us are mighty strong.

Thanks for the comments about the micro video of Dan's speed painting.  I'll mess around with iMovie and see if I can do anything with the roughly eight minutes of video…without being able to see the actual painting, I didn't think the video was interesting enough to post, but I'll see about editing it a bit to give you, dear readers, a bit more of the performance.

The Superbowl is over, which is just fine by me.  I'm glad the Saints won; New Orleans, and I mean the city, needs a win, don't you agree.  I'm no fan of the game (unless I'm watching it on a fall night in the stands at a local high school).  The Superbowl, in my world, means the end of a long season of noisy nonsense.  You might like it and be clucking your tongue at me, and that's okay.  

What I do like, though, is hanging out with a fire going and reading.  Tonight I'm catching up on the two novels my different sections of Composition 102 are studying.  I've read both several times, but I like to have everything fresh in my mind, so I do the reading as assigned.  Note to self: do not assign two different novels at the same time.  It cuts into personal reading time way too much.

Which leads me, contestants, to a question for you:  what book are you looking forward to reading?  I love hearing about the books on others' nightstands…it helps me to build up my "to read" list.  

Hope you had a great weekend!
