Sometimes this job is hurry up and wait. I’m still waiting for the waiting part, though. Perhaps fast and faster would be the better description. But as I walked out the door yesterday to go pick up lunch from the Thai place down the street, I was able to take a bit of a pause and play with a litter of beagle puppies that a coworker had brought in to show everyone in the lobby. Their ears were SO soft! I was so tempted to take one home. Except that Mogget and Tildrum might not like that so much. The puppy was about as big as they are full-grown.

Not to mention I only have so much room on my lap for the animal menagerie sort. Two is the limit, at least for now.

But I was sorely tempted.
