Forty Days in the Wilderness (Episode 11)

Edgar has officially been with us for forty days, which sounds biblical because, at this point, it is. In that time, he has drooled on me, tormented the dog, tried to terrorize Mr. Darcy, endangered himself in creative new ways, and earned an extended stay in the bathroom prison. Meanwhile, Mr. Darcy is still here, still elderly, still medically complicated, and still very much himself. This episode is about pet chaos, ongoing stress, domestic decline, and the strange reality that all of these animals are driving me insane and I love them dearly.
