Project 52

I had to include the cutout from the local paper because it amused me that the officers were disappointed the bird wasn't a penguin.

No mom news other than she was feeling great the last time I spoke with her. That was good news as she had just returned from the hospital where they were trying to diagnose her tummy troubles.

As for me, I was at my dentist's yesterday with a painful bump in my mouth. An infection set in where my gum has receded so I'm on antibiotics for seven days. I was concerned that I would need a root canal but xrays revealed that won't be necessary. Yay for that.

I'm glad you won't need a root canal. But an infection! WOE!

And I'm terribly amused the officers wanted to see a penguin. That is great.

Yes, I think their disappointment over the false identification is what prompted me to scan and save the story. This was also the best entry in the crime log I've read in quite a while.

And before I go, I wanted to thank you again for the Holmes on the Range recommendation. I downloaded the first book from Audible when I saw it and we started listening to it earlier this week. It's much different than my usual fare (1920s murder mysteries) and Jebra's choice (we're alternating my choices with his, which are Terry Pratchett's books in order of publication) and it took me two car rides (worth of time) to get used to the narration and the change in language (Western vs. England English) but I've pretty much adjusted and have even laughed a few times at the way Otto expresses his ideas. I think I'm already half in love with his taciturn older brother.

Yeah, there's a definite difference between Hockensmith's books and English mysteries in terms of language!

But how I love them. I mean, who couldn't love Old Red and his deducifying?

For the kitties over Labor Day, could Ian (or some other friend/friend's kid) come and house/cat sit (DaBoy is doing that here)? Or ask Tegan/Kevin for their catsitter's contact info. You may be out of their area, but they might have a recommendation.
