I was in South Carolina for a week for training for work. While I was gone, Red got her first ride in a car and trip to the vet. My mom and dad took her in a pet carrier which I really wish that I had pictures of. But hey, you gotta do what you …

Early yesterday the sun disappeared, the temperatures started to drop and the wind picked-up considerably. About the time that it got dark, it also started snowing. We didn’t get a lot of snow, but what fell has been blowing around all day. It’s reasonably cold out (it was around 8 degrees Fahrenheit [-13 Celsius] when …
Little Miss Red (as I am calling my young nursing charge) has taken to getting out of her pen and running to me when I am on my way to her. In fact, she is following me all the way back to the house when I leave! To say that it is terribly cute to …

I’m sitting here in the Newark airport writing this. It is 9 o’clock Monday morning, always a sober slap of reality, more so today more than usual. I am not used to rush hour traffic going into New York City. Hell, I’m not used to rush hour traffic at all! So getting here was more …
