Foxes in the Rain
by angeliska on August 9, 2009
Today something magical happened: it rained while the sun was shining. I know perhaps it’s not so very rare, but when it does occur and the opportunity for dancing around madly in it present itself- well, it really is pure (…)
Dog Days
by angeliska on July 30, 2009
We adopted a puppy! Well, she’s six months old- but that still counts, right? I was walking past the Austin Pets Alive adoption station after work the other day, and she caught my eye. She’s super wiggly, and thus really (…)

On our second day in the city by the sea, we unearthed a curious creature curled up in a tree-stump. Bright dark eyes and nose a-twitch, glossy curls and black-orchid scented.. Peekaboo. We were able to lure her out with (…)
