2 1/2 years

2 1/2 years... the amount of time it took this:

Our patient, sweet, gentle yet enduringly dumb 10 year-old golden retriever to acknowledge Peanut (in the absence of peanut butter, or any other treat waved tantalizingly at nose level).

It's a momentous day around here.

Intermission

Sitting on a bench in the lobby of a fancy theatre during intermission of a play, calling husband to check in on baby. A woman sits next to me, opens her enormous purse and proceeds to withdraw an entire half a pizza wrapped in saran wrap, which she opens and begins eating.

It's been a strange evening.

A test post

Having just received a brand spanking new cell phone for my b-day, I thought I'd test out this mobile blogging thing.

Moving right along...
