Our sweet whippet Cricket passed away a year ago, so now I have the best whippet ever… and the best greyhound puppy (adopted from Greyhound Friends for Life ❤️) ever!

At almost 10, Enzo has seen us take many vacations, but we’ve only BOTH left Comet once, last year, when she was only 6 months old, so I’m not sure she remembers.
Comet was BESIDE HERSELF with joy when we got home yesterday (Enzo was also very happy!). Watch for when she knocks me over 🤣 (I was still wearing my huge travel backpack)

Tom Lehrer made all of his music 100% public domain so if seeing people sad about his death makes you want to check them out… it’s free. he wanted you to share them.

Also, I’m late to this so not going to write a post about it, but we recently binged “The Righteous Gemstones” and it was fantastic. SO funny

I wanted to update my LinkedIn photo with my current hair, so I asked ChatGPT to take this photo from the Nasdaq and make it look more like a studio headshot (and less shiny), and the result was FUCKING TERRIFYING
