I've mentioned this before, but it's worth the reminder. WebMD has a free Pet Health Evaluator available on their website. You'll get a report and tips after you answer a set of questions. If you are worried that your dog may be developing diabetes, it might be worth your while to do this periodically between vet checkups.
He grew bigger, but still had the same face
This began as an ongoing chronicle of the day-to-day experience of living with a diabetic dog, along with some entirely random thoughts on . . . well, anything, but my diabetic dog has died (of cancer, not complications of diabetes), so I will be expanding my scope.

What I'm reading lately (probably not about dogs, though)
- Dana Stabenow's Kate Shugak mysteries. I got the first one (for my Nook) for 99 cents, and I was hooked. Set in Alaska, which really comes to vivid life, the books are outstanding, and there is a fabulous canine character to boot. Go Mutt!
- The Bell Ringers, by Henry Porter. Scared me silly!
- Sacred Games, by Vikram Chandra. Reading this was one of the most intense experiences I've had in the last few years. If you are at all curious about life in India, check it out.
- The Year of Magical Thinking, by Joan Didion. She has a way of describing her horrible experiences of grieving that is surprisingly comforting.
- World War Z, by Max Brooks. It absolutely does NOT feel like fiction, which is amazing considering that it's about zombies.
- Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Hilarious if you know your Austen; I'm not sure how it reads for those who don't.
Christmas Books
- Miracle and other Christmas Stories, by Connie Willis- don't miss the title story, which puts up a powerful argument for It's a Wonderful Life being the worst Christmas movie
- The Twelve Clues of Christmas, by Rhys Bowen (from the Her Royal Spyness series)
- A Highland Christmas, by M.C. Beaton (from the Hamish Macbeth series) - hilarious!
- Christmas Stalkings, by Charlotte Macleod (out of print right now, but a real winner)
- Mistletoe Mysteries, by Charlotte Macleod
- Rest You Merry, also by Charlotte Macleod. A very funny Christmas overkill mystery
- Murder Goes Mumming, by Alisa Craig (who is actually Charlotte Macleod, who apparently really liked to write about Christmas)
- Holiday in Death, by J.D. Robb
- Hercule Poirot's Christmas, by Agatha Christie

About Me
- Trina Lorde
- I'm a currently underemployed teacher (ah, the crisis in higher education) at a community college in the midwest. I have a PhD (in English) from Northern Illinois University and a masters in Library and Information Science from Dominican University (well, it was Rosary College when I was there). My research interests are wide and varied.
