The school year is almost over, and Beta thought she might be able to bring her old stuffed husky, imaginatively named Husk, into school.\u00a0 (This is a very old<\/strong> stuffed friend).<\/p>\n

We said, “you may not.”\u00a0 Beta still thought she could get away with some shenanigans by sneaking Husk to school.\u00a0 Alas, she didn’t even make it as far as the bus stop out front of our house.<\/p>\n

To ensure that he could not lead Beta into bad behavior, we determined that Husk would need to come to work with me.\u00a0 It was quite an adventure, and luckily I brought a camera with me to document it!<\/p>\n

Husk enjoyed the car ride into work.\u00a0 He even got up on the dash! \"Husk<\/p>\n

Here we are climbing the stairs.\u00a0 It’s a long climb – three floors – but we got to the top in good time.\u00a0 I take the stairs every day and Husk \u2014 well, huskies are known for their endurance.\u00a0 The elevator is for sissies.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

Husk was so excited he tried to open the door for me before I could unlock it.\u00a0 The red light next to the door means I haven’t swiped my key-card yet.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

We got right down to work.\u00a0 Husk typed up emails while I chatted with a co-worker about a problem we’re working on together.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

He also took some phone calls.\u00a0 Husk is very friendly on the phone!<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

When I had to go to a meeting, Husk asked if he could come.\u00a0 “Well, sure you can!” I said.\u00a0 “I bet you can help us work through some of these tough problems.”\u00a0 Everyone was glad that Husk came.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

We work hard and play harder.\u00a0 Husk decided to try some of the games in our common room.\u00a0 We have all kinds of video games.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

We also have ping pong.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

Husk made some new friends.\u00a0 These guys live in the office.\u00a0 Husk thought that was a little weird, at first, but they were friendly folk and Husk took a liking to them right away.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

We also have a resident penguin.\u00a0 It got to go out for a Mardi Gras party because it’s so well dressed.\u00a0 I guess the best-dressed people get beads at Mardi Gras?<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

Even after an exciting day like this, Husk started to miss home.\u00a0 The skies that started out so beautiful turned dark – rain was coming.\u00a0 He worried that we might be caught in a storm.\u00a0 The building in the distance is being demolished, and I think Husk worried that they were coming for us next.<\/p>\n

\"Husk<\/p>\n

Not to worry!\u00a0 Traffic was light and the rain held off.\u00a0 We made it home, safe and sound and into the arms of a very happy little girl.<\/p>\n
