Please can I give a panda a massage? Pretty please with sugar on it and a cherry on top!

I’m in line right behind you. That was unbelievably cute.

That looks like something I could do! But I bet you have to have five PhDs in pandaology before they let you anywhere near those cute little guys.

I was hoping that it would be like volunteering to cuddle babies at the hospital.

Speaking Mandarin is high on the list; I checked.
Saw eye doctor today. Everything is fine. I’ve had so many problems with my eyes in the past that they are reacting to it as I age. Eye arthritis.

Duckie, that’s great news!

Tara, please tell me you’re going to see Plumes sing to the animals! That whole event looks spectacular. If I lived closer to Philly, I’d definitely be there.

I’m only an hour and a half away, but I’ll be pup-sitting for my friend’s brother the next couple days. Maybe I should play some Beatles tunes and see what they do.

Oh I wish DebG! I’ll have to settle for the videos. It’s supposed to be pouring rain by this afternoon and I also said I would stop by the Philadelphia Calligrapher’s Society 50th Anniversary exhibition at City Hall. I think I can get there underground. We shall see.

lol…last night’s Jeopardy (which was a rerun, though I didn’t remember the answer) had a clue about Eugénie’s jewels and the Louvre heist. 😄

Speaking of music-loving animals, the all-knowing Al Gorithm just brought me this classically-trained doggie (there are more music school visits on his page).

One of the hashtags is Wholesome. I couldn’t agree more! That’s so lovely.
I love this so very much.
