So, I took the doggies to the local school yesterday to play ball. No, we don’t trespass, we play on the grass that is out front and not fenced. Yes, we pick up our poo. Yes, we wait until all the kiddies have gone away so as not to bother anyone.
Anyway, it’s one of our favorite places because it is situated next to lots of great big emptiness, and it’s behind the school so not close to the street and we only rarely see other people or dogs there so I feel mostly comfortable letting the maniacs run free. I gave them all their “fix” cause chasing the ball is like crack to these weirdos and started heading to the van to load everyone up. Teak raced ahead and jumped into the back of the van, when I got there, she was standing on the ledge with a bright pink frisbee around her neck and a ball in her mouth. It’s one of those plastic things with the hole in the middle, and apparently when she dove for another ball she managed to get it stuck on like a collar. It was hysterical and she looked like a goon, but she was pretty pleased with herself. My dog is a nerd.
It is these tiny silly moments that keep me marginally sane. If laughter truly is the best medicine, I’m sure glad I’ve got that strange little dog, cause her brain is looney.
