We have a small yappy dog, a terrier. It has no hands. It cannot reach the door knob even if it did. These are important details for what follows.

It's midnight and my son is up gaming and social media-ing. It's just him and the dog. The dog keeps looking at something inside and outside the house and growling or whining at it. Son lets the dog out. Let's dog in. Dog is still seeing something on the wall, by the dresser, in the yard...and son cannot see it and is getting a little freaked out.

He spends some time in his room on facebook and Youtube, comes out to check on the dog who he left sitting out there staring at the wall near the couch.

And the dog is outside in the yard, looking back at him through the glass.

He did not let the dog out. Everyone else was asleep.

Who let the dog out?(less)

Peter J Aldin books are more action/adventure driven and hopefully not as dark. No f-bombs either.(less)

There Is Something Wrong With Me

I swear. I can't just sit down and read one book at a time, one book start to finish.

I need to have at least three on the go, and usually 12 or more. It has nothing to do (usually) with whether or not I'm finding the book interesting/dragging. I think there's some neurodivergence at work. Either that or I just want ALL THE THINGS at once.

Maybe I need help. Is there such thing as a Reading Pyschol Read more of this blog post »
