Kate came over last night to eat Turkey Enchilada Pie and watch TV. We have about two sleepovers a month where basically we just sit on the couch all night and veg. Seriously, I've been living in Chicago almost eight years now and I don't think my sister and I have actually "gone out" together. My sister and I talk every day, multiple times a day, so when we get together we don't have much to talk about - though we find things, obviously - and take advantage of the fact that getting together is a good excuse not to actually do anything yet technically be doing something.

The Shea sisters take our down time very seriously. It's all very methodical, really.

While seeing me is certainly an attraction, Kate really comes to see Glinny Pup. Kate is one of Glinny's favorite human beings and one of only three people, myself included, who she'll jump around excitedly and moan and growl and whine at on sight. The growling is a happy growl, oddly enough. When she's really worked up and happy, she'll grab something in her mouth, and the noisemaking begins.

Here they are this morning, cuddling up on the couch and working on a liver-stuffed rawhide that The Mama bought her from Costco yesterday.
