Happy Friday! How are you doing? I’m mostly alright. Schoolwork’s under control, and yesterday a friend showed me two fields with horses I never knew about before. They were very sweet and friendly. I’m always glad when there’s animals around, it helps when I miss the cats.
Speaking of, Mom live-texted the Kentucky Derby on Saturday. Did you watch it? Mom quite enjoyed it. I think it’s a little sad how three guys basically tied and the winner was chosen by who stuck out their leg first. Not very meritocratic. A whale washed up on the shore a few weeks ago, and apparently nobody comes to pick it up, so Mom and Aaron went down to look at it a few days ago. Mom said it was beautiful. We’re going to go when I’m back. I’ve been watching lots of Caitlin Doughty lately so I’m not as disturbed by this as I normally would be. However, I do think there should be some government-maritime-disposal-unit to go put the whale back into the sea. It doesn’t feel healthy to let it rot near people’s houses?
More animal news: apparently the weird creatures I’ve been seeing in our house are moths, and we have too many of them. Mom’s been cleaning out the closets. I’ll be a little sad to see them go. They looked too small for moths. Whatever the case, we have moths outside.
Today is feeling like the animal channel. I still wonder how our goldfish is doing sometimes (Puddles, I think). It was so sickly I doubt it’s still here, but the poor thing was holding on in 2016. I hear goldfish can live up to 20 years. I miss you. I hope you have something nice like a goldfish to keep you company.
With love,
Alice
