Last night I dreamt my family was visiting Germany and I was adamant that we visit Berlin for the weekend. I kept saying, “We have to go THIS weekend so we can celebrate Boo-lin.” Some dream in red, I dream in puns. #Halloween #Berlin #pearljam #germany #dreams #puns #punny

Can someone calculate the probability that I would get zero matching pairs of socks in one wash? How did this happen?#laundryprobabality #Probability #math

@LeviHastingsArt Yay! What beautiful dog! Congratulations!

I haven’t been around much because I’ve been busy training my new studio assistant. He relies more on charisma than his organization skills, but he’s still a valuable member of the team.

Springer, the orca in my book, is pregnant with her third calf. Such heart-warming news for these threatened creatures. ⁦⁦@LeviHastingsArt⁩ ⁦@LBFbooks⁩ #orcas #pugetsound #scicomm vancouversun.com/news/local-new…

@LeviHastingsArt I’m so sorry to hear this. I am heartbroken for you.

We’re heartbroken, exhausted, defeated (and apparently cursed). But we’ve also been overwhelmed with all the love and support we’ve received over the past week. Sincere thanks to everyone who’s been with us through this agonizing experience.

Our dog dreams turned to nightmares when sweet baby Theo was hospitalized with parvo just a few days after we brought him home. He’s struggling to fight off the infection but needs a few more days of treatment. Any help would be forever appreciated. gofundme.com/f/help-little-…

@LeviHastingsArt Oh no. Sending lots of good healing thoughts your way.

I’m ready to dig into these books! So thankful for all the vaccinated people who made it possible for the libraries to open. @AS_King @SPLBuzz #vaccinated
