I have a trip to anchorage planned for next week. Im going to assist with necropsies on the sea otters that I have been picking up. I sprung for the hotel room this time, I usually couch surf while Im up there, but this is going to be a hard, stinky 8 hours, so I want to be able to rest and get a nice hot shower at the end of the day.

Im actually really excited about the shower, my hot water heater is on the fritz, so I have to take short showers to still have hot water. So, Im gonna take the longest, hottest shower I can stand!

While Im up there Im going to visit with the bird club. Im thinking about getting a parrot. Ive had small birds when I was a kid, but never a big one. I guess Im interested in something that will live for a long time! I just noticed that my dog only has a few of her pills left. I guess that means that the time is really coming. phew...


I guess I gave the wrong finger to the wrong man...
