You Can Do It, Champ
Could someone please explain to me why the dogs are posed in the corner of a boxing ring?
I mean, I could understand if they were boxers -- but I'm pretty sure they're hounds.

You can have the thread. All of it! Even the good Gutermann silk! And the metallics...here, take the rayon, too, I really don't need it. You want the plain black cotton? Sure! Take it!
Just please, please, PLEASE be gone in the morning.
