Welcome to the 2021 A to Z Challenge! My theme this year is DC Comics. And that’s mostly because of my undying affection for the comic book characters and stories that I grew up reading in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. So stay tuned all month to (maybe) learn a little something about 26 corners … Continue reading A to Z Challenge – Krypto
Dog
Question of the Week #211
Would $50,000 be enough money to induce you to take a loyal, healthy pet to the vet to be put to sleep? Absolutely not.

But not a pet that's clearly part … Continue reading Question of the Week #211
The Story of Duchess
A couple weeks ago, I got a text from one of my roommates asking me if I was cool with him getting a dog. Of course, I'm cool with him getting a dog. As long as I'm not the one that has to be responsible for him. Fine by me. I feel like, most days, … Continue reading The Story of Duchess
