I just got back from the Boys And Girls Club Youth of the Year awards dinner. It was heartwarming and I was so charmed by hearing these kids tell their stories of personal growth achieved through their involvement with the club.

We get some unusual wildlife in these parts every now and then. This is an eastern coyote photographed on the beach a few days ago.

The eastern coyote is one of 19 subspecies of coyote, which are adaptable predators that live everywhere from the streets of Los Angeles to Florida swamps. The eastern subspecies, which ranges as far west as Ohio, is thought to have migrated to the Northeast some 80 years ago, taking over the range occupied by wolves and interbreeding with the larger animals.

They no longer overlap with wolves, which are long gone from the East save for the very rare red wolf, but they remain eight to 25 percent wolf genetically, said Roland Kays, a leading coyote biologist with the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.

They are also about eight to 11 percent dog due to past interbreeding with feral dogs, he said. The eastern coyote remains capable of having pups with dogs, but it’s not common in part because their breeding cycles don’t neatly overlap.

Hybridization with wolves gave eastern coyotes their size and weight, with eastern coyotes averaging about 35 pounds and the Western subspecies averaging about 25 pounds.

Scientists see evidence that the wolf DNA is increasingly helping the eastern coyotes survive, Kays said. And they might also be growing in number.

Listening to really old Prince and building web things.

Looking on the school computer on the last day of add/drop and finding ONE seat open in the class that fits perfectly into my schedule. (And I already have the books since I was originally scheduled for this class) I was seeing my advisor any way about transfer credits and she swooped in and snagged me the seat!
The topic is more interesting too. And the professor is not bland. I'm a super happy girl

Booking TWO gigs since last night!

Gracie has been so sweet today and crawled up in my lap to snooze while I watched NCIS. She even opted to snuggle in my lap despite DC having a blanket (she has a blanket fetish). I think it's because I'm wearing my velour pajama set and velour feels delicious but I was still a little smug about it.

reminiscing with a good friend over coffee-time flies..

Gemme · 01-26-2018, 04:19 AM

We've bought some fairly expensive things for the fur babies since they arrived but their absolute favorite toys are the .99 toy mice. Go figure.

They are so freakin' cute playing and tossing them around and chasing one another when they realize that the other one has a mouse too.

The fact that being an adult means I can have whatever I want for breakfast. Today it was nachos.

Number crunching at midnight for friends weddings, another NY trip and our wedding and finding we are still on track for everything without a lot of additional stress.

Seeing a bald eagle calmly surveying his domain from atop a massive pine tree.

RockOn · 01-30-2018, 06:56 PM

After I got home, fed the pups, went out and stayed for a while watching them play, I knew I needed some downtime, something mindless to relax me.

I am smiling now.

Watched 3 of my favorite Cow & Chicken cartoons.

If anyone is interested, here are 3 youtube links to these episodes:

Finding out that my folks are buying me a new mattress and box spring.

I toss and turn every night and am tired all the time, so maybe a better mattress will help.
