Boston Terrorism via my Aspie

 
    Aspies have unique takes on things.... of course, if you know one, or have one, that was stating the obvious.
    This week has been a horrific week for the citizens of Boston, those associated with the marathon, and all of us, U.S. citizens. Most of us have had great anxiety, along with grief, and a deep prayer life this week.
    While I have tried to not expose Rachel to the tragic events, they discussed it at her school... and she did see some newspaper headlines....
    Those of you that know us personally, know that Rosebug, our "dog", is a major part of our family. Odds are really good, that if you know Rachel, you know Rosie! And you probably also know, if you ask her, why the Rosebug name, or what kind of dog she is? Rachel's monotone answer is always: "She's a Boston Terrier, mixed up Pug!".  (aka "designer breed", Bugg, or, my generation's, mutt)
    Well, by now you have already guessed what Rachel's focus has been this week.... the "Boston Terrier"!  Sometimes, I wish, I had Asperger's!
