While I do feel unproductive, it was for good reason, because I had something else keeping me busy. Something else in the form of black fluffy adorableness.<br /><br />Meet Susie.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="486" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrkv2Ezt4M0L_GWa7hbjmDVXuJFIr2uAEGc4NtbS0iT5GSIxx54yJWy2yv16ZcG__cbDvnHr2a5TgepWWCzeZs6OPDceAfog7oK06f9g0G89uHz-l50nONuazFtmhADqT8-B17IAakyz24/s640/IMG_4690.jpg" width="640" /></div><br />Susie is Brad's birthday gift to me, and my birthday gift to him (my birthday is tomorrow and his is Wednesday).
