&lt;p&gt;Is there anyone out there who knows anything about birds and wildlife? I need to find out why there are so many dead birds in my yard. The death toll is rising, and Frannie likes to eat them, which I would prefer she not do. It&amp;#8217;s like they just dropped out of the sky. They don&amp;#8217;t look sick, they don&amp;#8217;t look injured&amp;#8230; they&amp;#8217;re just dead. &lt;/p&gt;

SHE SWALLOWED THE WHOLE FUCKING THING WITHOUT CHEWING. The vet said she will probably digest it without much issue. When she gets her mouth around a toy or something, she clamps down and refuses to let go, and it’s almost impossible to get her to release her deathgrip on it. This is what happened with the bird. I was trying to pry her mouth open, and in order to keep her prize, she gulped it down. I’m in the process of getting her into a manners class, which hopefully will help me deal with a few of her issues (not dropping toys/dead animals, not coming when called, etc.) But my main concern is that I have done something so terrible in my life that this is my punishment - living with the spawn of Satan. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And now, for your amusement, a complete list of things Frannie has eaten (that I know of):&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- dead bird&lt;br/&gt;- pink stuffed elephant&lt;br/&gt;- one brand new sock&lt;br/&gt;- part of an Iron Man action figure (she removed and ingested his head)&lt;br/&gt;- half a tennis ball&lt;br/&gt;- the head of a stuffed zebra&lt;br/&gt;- all of the dog poop in the yard&lt;br/&gt;- two plastic dog bowls&lt;br/&gt;- a sponge&lt;br/&gt;- an unknown amount of shrubbery and various organic materials&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The most amazing part about all of this is that I almost always find these things in the yard a few days later, after they’ve passed through her system. She has a stomach of steel.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://eilselxela.tumblr.com/post/50097391604</link><guid>http://eilselxela.tumblr.com/post/50097391604</guid><pubDate>Fri, 10 May 2013 13:02:35 -0400</pubDate><category>dog</category><category>pit bull</category><category>pitbull</category></item><item><title>whydoihaveablog:

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“And even if everything still seems like hopeless bullshit, maybe it’s just pointless bullshit or weird bullshit or possibly not even bullshit. I don’t know. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div class="separator"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator"&gt;&lt;em&gt;But when you’re concerned that the miserable, boring wasteland in front of you might stretch all the way into forever, not knowing feels strangely hope-like.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;div class="separator"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator"&gt;Two days ago I found myself on what I thought was a still abandoned hyperboleandahalf — one of the first blogs I loved, one of the first blogs that made me feel okay with oversharing because maybe sometimes people don’t share enough. There is something wonderful and special about being able to tear up at a bar with a friend or interrupt your own story with a sudden cock of your head as you say, “I don’t think I’ve ever told anyone this before.”&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator"&gt;The next day I saw that she was preparing for an update today. And today happened, and Allie Bosh is still as amazing and important ever.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description><link>http://eilselxela.tumblr.com/post/50020418655</link><guid>http://eilselxela.tumblr.com/post/50020418655</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 May 2013 12:54:42 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>rvanews:
