meet max:





max lost an eye in a fight over
a girl. then max almost lost
another eye when he found a swarm
of bees who also found him. then
a year later max had a stroke and
had to learn to walk and balance
again. now max is silly and likes
to prance and bark. his only trick
is to turn circles round and round
for treats. max is basically just
happy to be here.


my parents got max when i moved out
for college. my dad jokes that they
call him "rachael" when i'm not around.

lucy is a bluetick, but lucy is a special
type of bluetick - i don't know which.
lucy is my brother's hunting dog. lucy
is supposedly a fancy well trained hunting
dog. i wanted to let her out of her pen
to run and run, but i'm not supposed to.

childhood past:

where i grew up from age 2-12





i remember reaching out this
bedroom window to turn the tv
antenna pole, yelling back and
forth to whoever was in the
living room to see if the
picture was clear yet.





we weren't very rich but
we sure were happy.
