Time is in a rather odd state for me right now: it is going by both quickly and slowly at the same time. At least, every day feels like time is going by so slowly, and then before I realize it, it's over, and I'm one day closer to leaving.
I've definitely been finding myself taking the time to appreciate everything around me more fully. Getting a new camera gives me an awesome excuse to spend a lot of time taking pictures of my pets; especially when I realize that, by the time I return home (assuming I do), most of them will have probably passed on (or maybe not, they are rather stubbornly healthy animals). It's the thought, though, that I may never conceivably see my pets again that makes it hardest to just pack up and leave, especially when I consider that some of these animals have been my friends for over 10 years of my life.
But those are depressing thoughts, so I'll go ahead, and for lack of anything else to really write about, post cute pictures of my fluffy companions. If that's one thing that's gone truly global in the internet age, it's definitely the posting of cute pet pictures. (And just a forewarning: I accidentally took the first three photos at 20 megapixels.... so they are on the large side.)
It's summer time, the dogs' favorite time of year. They're all swimming fanatics--the little Yorkie puppy even kept on swimming through all of last winter. And the silver Bengal can be coaxed into swimming in the pool, too, and since he hasn't killed us in our sleep yet, he probably enjoys it.
And I'll throw in this funny little video about pets and packing, because it seems oddly relevant. (Or else I'm truly grasping at straws right now for things to post about!)
