How many pup cups does it take to heal an ear hematoma?
My dog wants to know.
(Nobody come for me. We've been to the vet. A medically sound treatment plan is in place. But Gus would prefer an alternate plan involving food and squeaky toys).

Of my favorite fictional characters growing up, two were droids (Data, R2-D2) and one was an alien sent to Earth to study humans (Mork).
I found them all deeply relatable.
That probably should have been the first clue.

One time I (barely) finished a 40-mile ski race and my race snacks looked like a child was left unsupervised in a 7-Eleven and everyone started calling me donut hole because I had one in every pocket.

After the election, I watched The Birdcage on repeat. Nobody makes me feel better when I'm having a hard time than Robin Williams. Sometimes I walk past the Mork and Mindy house in Boulder and just thank him for everything and let him know how much we love and miss him. Nanu, nanu, you legend.

I've only opened one door a day on my dog's Advent calendar since December 1 and I don't think I get enough credit for that.

I survived cancer.
It still feels surreal. My next MRI is in January. Fingers crossed for a clear scan.

It's Friday. December has been a long year. Tell me your goodest boy stories.
I'll go first. On a hike, my dog waited in front of a gate for me to open it. There was no fence, y'all. Just a lone gate in an open field. He just knows he's supposed to wait for me to open gates. So he did.

One thing I love about humans is that we buy advent calendars for our pets and then become more excited than them about the treats.

And then I think, "we're gonna be alright."
