I left work at 4:45pm and didn't get home until just before 6pm. I only made one stop so I'm not sure why it seemed to take forever. I went to the library next to the park and was surprised by how many people had dogs there. On my way out I passed a gentleman in his 40s or 50s who had an exuberant corgi jumping around him just waiting for some treat to fall out of his jeans pocket. It was a cute sight.

I found a funny quiz for NaNo that predicts I'll win! Credit goes to arieswriting for bringing it to my attention.
