WOTD: Compunction

Compunction - is it legit to write publicly about my daughter's grief at the loss of her pet rabbit? (I think the answer here has something to do with time, and a lot to do with how actually ready I am personally to deal with it) (because I spent a lot of the weekend being mostly in the you-can-lean-on-me role, and probably didn't do so well actually processing my own grief) (there is also a major emotional complication in that I was [still am] preparing myself for the loss of our elderly dog when suddenly the rabbit died)

Compunction - every time I see a particularly clever political ad (I'm with her, post bern) or a legitimately new piece of political news that interests me, I hesitate to share it. I don't really want my social media presence to be political. The issues are so strong in this cycle, though, that I also feel like i'm not being socially responsible by being quiet.

Beatrix is the white/black one. A friend with a beautiful wooded area in her backyard let us bury Beatrix back there. There is a heavy and horrible feeling that happens as a parent when you see your child's heartbreak. The dog giving you a flat blue 'srly?' is my old-man-dog who I'm now hooking up to fluids every day to take a little stress off his failing kidneys.

Solution for getting through work this morning: Sondheim. Into the Woods.
