I’m only a year older than my friends, but I’m pretty sure I’m actually aging in dog years based on our differences in opinion on how to handle having an early Sunday morning flight home from vacation.

Homeland is filming in our office. In related news, I’ve gone from relatively normal adult to star-crazed TV fanatic remarkably quickly.

Today is my grandmother’s 95th birthday. I grew up in North Carolina and she’s always lived in Texas, but when I was in college I had the chance to spend two summers living in her home. That was when I found out that we shared more than a last name and the shade of our blue eyes. We both love South Carolina beaches and cocktail hours and conversations about God and politics and good books. She’s one of my favorite people I’ve ever known.

I feel really lucky to be able to wish her a happy birthday today.

Last night I tried putting Pawley in a different room than usual to sleep. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this, but Pawley doesn’t deal very well with change.

Has that been there the entire time?

This blog has just turned into me reblogging gifs of Mindy Project scenes with Ike Barinholtz and dogs. I don’t see this trend ending any time soon.

Last night’s episode of The Mindy Project was my favorite ever. And Chris Messina running around in a speedo for half the episode was only like ~~40%~~ ~~50%~~ ok 75% of the reason why.
