Newsy day…

1. I recently took Hawken the Irish Wolfhound to my office at the request of one of our dog-loving ad reps, LeaAnn. It was a good visit, but LeaAnn noticed an enlargement on Hawken’s elbow. I ran him by the vet, who told me it is a hygroma, a benign fluid-filled sack common to large dogs, that appears due to repeated pressure on a joint. I ordered a hygroma pad.
2. I won the lottery again. Actually, I won two lotteries, Lotto America for $4 and Megamillions for $30. I plan to buy one of those jet skis that’s also a mansion and yacht.
3. There was a funny moment at Ada High’s soccer media day when I asked Sadie Criswell to throw the ball from one end of the group to the other. (Last year when a bunch of kids to whom I had become attached graduated, I told myself I wouldn’t let that happen again. But I did. These are such great kids.)
