I think the animals have just defeated me in a battle of wills, or something. The puppy (Shiitake, she sayd tentatively) was snorfling around her food dish looking pathetic and hungry, so I filled up her bowl. Doing this made Zilli come runrunrunning into the kitchen.

weekend report
So I did *most* of the things I intended to this weekend. I didn’t get any exercise, but I read some and I wrote some (the next chapter of US is done; I need to post it. I also think I may need to change the time of year that the story is happening in . . . I’ve been thinking about going back and reworking it from the top), and I . . . um. Well. Got a puppy. That wasn’t actually part of the weekend plan, but it…
