Aw give him a hug for me. We have a rescue cat who had to get all his teeth removed after a severe infection from living on the streets. We fostered him for a bit during his cone-head convalescence, fell in love with him, and wound up adopting him.
I was at church today also, playing music with my wife. I'm not particularly devout to be honest, but I believe in the community which got me settled into a new city and hooked me up with people who helped me live out my dreams. I owe these guys big-time. The priest is an old guy who came out of retirement to say all the stuff he's bottled up for years. He's super-progressive with a great sense of humour and he keeps things short. It's great! Today was his birthday and we all sang to him.
That's wonderful!
I'm not a big believer in Jesus per se, but I get a lot out of the community and just a generally better way to live life, you know?
My dog is a bit better today, he appreciates the hugs. Poor old puppy.
