Okay, I'm sitting here with a bottle of ice nestled into my crotch. And I'm not supposed to be sitting up at all, so we'll make this brief.

Just a picture of a field of blue (larkspur) from earlier this month:

And a list of other things I want to mention from the past two days when I can...
- the perfect chicken marsala. Really.
- a sign in the hospital entryway
- false testimony on medical documents
- success of the wife's heeler shield
- heeler sympathy & vet smells
- half-price surgery
- frog room
- three ferrugs
- out of business sale
- two weeks abstinence? No way, Doc.
