throwback to my annoying theatre kid days (bonus points if you know what musical!)

Did I go on vacation or was it just an expensive photoshoot for the “woman with back to camera” genre of book covers?

Listening to the effervescent LaVar Burton right now and the entire library audience is Troy in Community #ALA2026

I’ll have you know I’ve rocked a bob and bangs since age 5, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it

Okay but this one is giving Kristen Larson, modern American girl and I’m here for it

Agatha made it all the way to 13, and I know we were lucky to have her with us for 6 of them, but still wasn’t enough. I will miss you forever my sweet girl.

She also has a sassy diva side. We called her “The Queen” because she has very specific ideas about how things should go and likes to show her displeasure when they don’t. She was a grand old dame was never happier than when she got to lay on the couch and nap the day away.

I know all dogs are Good Girls™️ but I can’t find the words to really tell you just how *good* of girl Aggie is. She never barks, loves everyone, and if you pet her she just fully melts. And she always put up with me putting her in a wide selection of sweaters with no complaint.

Eventually they embraced their ying/yang dynamic and Agatha would occasionally even act like a Real Dog™️ and play with her sister and made dog park friends. I was so, so proud of my poor traumatized baby for learning how to be brave.
