Rain, Rain, Go Away

Rain. You know that this doesn’t usually bother me, and while I am delighted for the respite from the ever-maddening heat and humidity, I fear it may be too short-lived.

Sleep Softly, Sweet Behemoth

 My furry little buddy has passed away.  Behemoth, how I will miss you. I know that you haven’t been well for awhile, and we did all that we could without going to invasive, painful extremes.  You put up with me shoving that syringe full of medicine down your throat twice a day when you weighed…
