having a dog named “DJ” means you shout a lot of things that would be really interesting DJ names. examples:
“DJ Stop It!”
“DJ Don’t Chew On The Cat!”
and my favorite:
“DJ What Are You Eating??!?!”

both kids sick (with different symptoms) so it’s home-from-school and tests for everyone in the morning! i know i can’t shelter them from everything forever. but maybe we kept this at bay for more than two years.
