I should point out that the pun here was completely unintended. Thanks to Katie for submitting her awesome Six Act analysis for the Reese Witherspoon comedy classic Legally Blonde! I had intended it to be my next blog post, but over the course of the last few weeks my very good boy Duke lost his sight due to cataracts from a complication of diabetes. Luckily, in most cases the condition is treatable with surgery to remove the cataracts and implant an artificial lens to prevent recurrence. Unfortunately, the procedure is just as expensive as it sounds. So my wife and I started a fundraiser to get our happy boy his sight back. He’s in otherwise good health, so we hope to get him back to zipping around the backyard with his sisters before his condition worsens. If you’d like to make a contribution here, any amount would be appreciated! Either way, enjoy the breakdown of Legally Blonde.
