Color-Coordinated

Barley, a dog, poses with a card from the Mysterium series of paranormal murder mystery board games.

I’ve been posting the daily nonsense I get up to on my bulletin board for longer than I’ve been posting daily photos of Barley. A consequence of that is that Barley has been, in an incidental sense at least, my primary audience member. She has, without exaggeration, been present for hundreds of hours of fiddling with my collection, of finding amusing juxtapositions, and of sticking and unsticking pushpins into an increasingly crater-scarred substrate. Despite that, as in most things I do, I don’t think Barley has the least idea what I’m up to as she watches me fret and fuss. She’s just happy that I’m in her sightline, doing whatever it is I do.
