I have a zoo crew: 2 dogs and 2 cats, a pack of 4 loving companions in my family. I swear that each of them is an emotional support animal in their own way.

I almost cried at the vet last night
I took Rosie to a new vet last night because she was due for her annual check-up. I researched a ton of vets and this one had like 1,000+ five-star reviews, so I scheduled her appointment and was fine waiting six weeks to be seen due to the wait. The vet is incredible.

Signs
I’ve been seeing a lot more 617, pretty much every day. I ended a phone call this morning and it lasted 6 minutes and 17 seconds. The apartment right across from mine is 1617.
