Loki, the Dog of Mischief
Back story: I was so lonely after my husband and I split up. After being married to someone for over 25 years, being by yourself is more than just a culture shock to the system. I went to stay in my best friend Jimmis' childhood home. The house was much bigger than I was accustomed to. After a few short weeks of getting settled in, the feeling of being in solitary confinement was more than anyone could bear. So I bit the bullet and decided to get a puppy. I did not care what type of dog he or she was. I just needed something or someone in my life and would never leave. Be loyal and faithful to only me. Luckily one of my dear friends came by one day with a surprise. As I looked in the box there was the most precious, adorable face I had ever seen. I immediately picked him up and knew he would be all I would need to make it through the day. As I held him his name just came to me. Loki! I will name you Loki, the God/Dog of tricks and mischief.

The Ochre Sea Star and Blue Mussel
INTRODUCTION Day by day, humans live out their lives, darting to and fro, rarely noticing the sheer beauty and complexity that lies only a few yards away. Beauty exists everywhere: in the sky, in the trees, in the ground, but one such beauty is purely immeasurable… the ocean. Waves circle and crash in an endless motion, the wind gently nips at the supratidal trees, and organisms thrive within watery caverns. Only a few yards away from the beach lies an amazing relationship between the sea star and the blue mussel.

Plumette the Office Cat
I rather enjoy the simple fact that things always happen for a reason. It’s not a completely spiritual idea (although it does have a part to play in it) but rather my view of life in general. I’m a writer and have been for as long as I can remember, so when I think about life’s events, I can’t help but to think about literary elements that occur in a story. Things happen to teach us things, to create our character, or to simply move life along.
