conulyshe tells me that everybody at the office loves him, and makes special trips back just to say hi. I'm never sure how much of this is true, and how much is hyperbole designed to keep me coming back. I mean, we love Finn and would certainly make special trips to say hi if he was confined in a crate for a few hours... but that's because he's kinda needy and he howls (and, apparently, chews things when trapped in crates, something he emphatically doesn't do at home). There's no way for me to ask and know for sure that I'll get an honest answer.
Anyway, now he's shaved and boy does he look pink!
In other news, the word of the day email is a word I already know and know the etymology of off the top of my head, which is always disappointing... although it occurs to me to wonder exactly what it means when I say that "pelf" is in my active vocabulary.
