Second vote for Alamo!

TY!

Ooh new to me!

Oh yeah I’ve had them they are good!

Thank you!

TY! (And we never did get around to reading IJ)

Yeah, especially the part where she herself turned around and went the other way after we left. It wasn’t like she was trying to walk towards us, and I was impeding her by bringing a scary dog in her direction.

Totally valid! Especially if you’re not familiar with the breed, I can see how they could be scary. There was tons of other space she could’ve moved to, or if she had even asked me to turn around I would’ve done it happily. In this case, I did it sort of unhappily and confusedly.

And he would LOVE that. If he sees someone he thinks it’s a good prospect, he will literally sit down in the street and wait for them to come pat him.

Even when he is destroying books and remote controls with absolute abandon

This is the beast she screamed at he is so fluffy and so much fun

I mean, it’s not my place to judge, but…

As we got within about 6 ft of her she screamed this really intense little scream, still recording and staring at my Saint. I was like excuse me do you have a problem? She said nothing, didn’t move, kept recording, so I turned around and went the other way. Assured we were retreating, she left. 2/2

Weirdness, continued: I waited for this guy to pass, and then went on around the block, walking down a busy sidewalk. A lady was standing in the middle of the sidewalk, recording us as we came near. Not super uncommon since I have a St. Bernard and he’s kind of a spectacle. 1/2

Gift link:

I gave him the stink eye.

They asked for us to share the story of an Episcopal priest from Kenya, who is here legally, with a work permit, and serving in a Swahili language Episcopal Ministry in a local church. He was randomly pulled over, detained for 2 months for absolutely no reason, until finally deciding to self deport.

will do
