And now a behind-the-scenes story about a ceramic animal mishap. While we were working on this project, something unfortunate happened.
…this occurred:
I’m not quite ready to go into every detail, so here’s John’s illustration of how the accident unfolded:
Sadly, my favorite giant ceramic dog — a find from HomeGoods three years ago for just $29 — lost his face. As the world’s most famous blogger once said, it sucked and then I cried.
We even held a little candlelit vigil. Goodbye, Mr. Ceramic Dog. You were a charming companion and required no cleanup—until now.
I may try to glue him back together, although some fragments are quite small. For now, I’ll likely be found shaking, sighing, and softly asking “why?”
Just kidding — I’ll survive.
