I AM WEAK.

LGS had them at $140 which is not terrible and I get so much enjoyment out of opening packs...

My sister asked me to write a bio for a dog in her rescue and said "her name is Lola."

I regret nothing.

Another of the tiniest amphibians for @seananmcguire.bsky.social!
Greenish-brown and extremely tiny froglet sitting on a small white adult hand. Froglet has some spots and one rear leg is stretched out behind it. The same tiny froglet on the same hand but this time the wrist is visible and the frog looks even smaller thanks the to black smartwatch band. This time the froglet is facing the camera and it is still teeny tiny and adorable.

I just found the tiniest little froglet on the road while walking one of the dogs I've borrowed for a few weeks.

Look. How. Small!

(Amphibians and reptiles offered as tribute to @seananmcguire.bsky.social as always)
Extremely small brownish frog with tiny orange spots on asphalt next to a small white adult hand. The same extremely small frog held in the same small adult hand. It's very small and cute and just sitting in the cupped hand.

They love at my sister's house but I love them very much
Two dogs lying facing away from each other on a beige couch. The left dog is black with white markings, short hair, a heeler mix and she's curled up. She also seems to be giving her companion some side eye. The right dog is stretched out and fluffy. Also black with white markings, he's a doodle. They are Very Good Dogs even when they are only Medium Dogs.

Haven't managed to get my own photo of this year's baby foxes yet but I caught 2 kits on my trail cam this morning so I'm here to share an adorable image with you all in this trying time.

@chuckwendig.bsky.social @sarahgailey.bsky.social @seananmcguire.bsky.social
Two red fox kits in front of the corner of a building with white siding. One is seated on some wood and looking to the right at the other. That second one is standing and looking up at the seated one. They both are reddish-grey with black-tipped ears and black feet. There's a downspout between them and some dirt and a bush in the foreground but the bush doe not obscure the view of the foxes. They are extremely adorable.

I got my mystery box from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social today! IT'S ALL SO PRETTY AND I LOVE IT.

And the one necklace is long enough I can double it.
3 necklaces laid out on a background of black tissue paper with silver moons and stars on it. From left: a long necklace with iridescent beads of various sizes alternating with tiny black matte beads and tiny silver stars. A shorter necklace of flat, circular darkly iridescent freshwater pearls. And one of in-between length with blue transparent iridescent round beads, silver stars, and tiny sparkly glass beads on what I think is a rosary style chain? An open brushed silvery bangle bracelet. The top end is a hand shaped metal star, the bottom end is a silvery ball. Next to the star is (I believe) dichroic glass that's black with blue-green in a round setting.

Here's me in my pearls!

One of my 8th graders is doing a book project on HOUSE OF MARIONNE by @authorjelle.bsky.social

Check out the post-its this kid has going on.

#LibraryLife #SchoolLibrary #BookSky
A copy of HOUSE OF MARIONNE by J. Elle is being held angled so you can see the cover and the pages of the book. The pages are overflowing with blue and teal and a few yellow small sticky notes.

Gonzo is here to bring fluffiness and joy to your feed.

He looks very handsome in blue.

I was a jedi at work today. Sometimes you need a library jedi.
Mandy, a brunette white woman in glasses with her hair in one braid, is standing in front of a library shelf full of books and smiling. She's wearing a jedi outfit with brown boots, brown pants, and an off-white sweater with a brown belt. She's also holding a lightsaber that's lit yellow.

Hey @seananmcguire.bsky.social do you need any of these Magic novels?

(You were in the market for MtG novels at one point, right?)

It's the rescue my sister is the VP of. They help lots of lovely dogs in the Rochester, NY area.

Like these little puppers!
3 very young puppies in shades of brown with white markings. They are all fast asleep on a blue blanket. 2 are curled up together and the 3rd has its head resting against another and its tongue and all 4 legs sticking straight out. A cockapoo in shades of brown with big brown eyes and light brown eyebrows is looking directly at the camera. She is sitting up while 6 puppies are laying down and nursing. 5 puppies are lighter brown, like a golden retriever, and the 6th on the far left is black. The puppies look somewhat like chicken nuggets that have been cooked for varying lengths of time. The black one is a burned nugget, of course.

@seananmcguire.bsky.social And when he was a tiny milk-drunk puppy!
White and gray pit bull mix puppy curled up with his belly showing in someone's lap. He is very asleep and looks like he's waving. Grey and white pit bull puppy passed out on a white blanket. He's wearing a red collar and looks to be very deeply asleep and his belly looks so rubbable.

Oh @seananmcguire.bsky.social here's one of the puppies all grown up and enormous.

Today's best fox kit photo. Big stretch!

@seananmcguire.bsky.social @chuckwendig.bsky.social @sarahgailey.bsky.social
A red fox kit stretching. Its front legs are outstretched and its head is down. A classic "oh, big stretch" pose. It's in front of a white wall and a hole and there is a tree in the foreground along with some leaves.

Sometimes you need to make your own fun and encourage the return of overdue library materials at the same time.

So you make a new bulletin board for the last month of school.

#LibraryLife
A close-up photo of a bulletin board with missing posters for chromebooks, headphones, and chargers. There is a red MISSING stamp over the images of the items on each poster and the words "HAVE YOU SEEN THIS/THESE CHROMEBOOK/CHARGER/HEADPHONES" along with the date they were checked out and instructions to contact Ms. Mandy in the library.

Friends. I caught a bb fox mid-blep today.

@chuckwendig.bsky.social @sarahgailey.bsky.social
a red fox kit is seated in front of a wall. There are out of focus leaves and stems in the foreground. The kit is looking off to the right a bit and its tongue is sticking out. Excellent baby fox blep.

Baby foxes remain the greatest thing.

@chuckwendig.bsky.social @sarahgailey.bsky.social @seananmcguire.bsky.social
2 red fox kits are on the ground outside a building with white siding behind some greenery. One is partially obscured by the other and the other is looking intently at the camera. A red fox kit is in front of a garage wall white siding. It's standing on the dirt, framed by some wild grape vines. It's head is lowered and it's looking at the camera. Two red fox kits are facing away from the camera. They are between some leaves and a building with white siding. The one closer to the camera is tapping the other on the shoulder with its front paw. A red fox kit is poised to pounce. It's looking intently at an opening under a wall.

Had minor surgery a couple weeks back and bought myself a present from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social afterwards.

It's pretty.
A white woman with glasses and braids and a Jack Skellington t-shirt is looking at the camera to show off her necklace. It's dark blue glass stars with smaller black stars and gold beads.
