So a friend told me something a few months ago that he wanted me to keep quiet about for awhile...
So I did...
I pushed it right out of my mind because I am not good at keeping secrets.
Yesterday I got a text from him...
Him: It is public knowledge now...do you know what I mean???
Me: Is what public knowledge???? What did I miss???
Yeah....
I had completely put it out of my mind....
And I read his text wrong...
I thought he was asking me if something was public knowledge...
And knowing that I know him through G-Man, I got worried....
What did G-man tell him that he has not told me????
All sorts of things went through my head....
None of them too comforting...
Him: I applied for the position...
Me: Oh, yeah, that. Good Luck!
Being G-Man's Mom is scary stuff at times....
I love long weekends.
And today is Great Friday....
That's right, not just good, but great....
It is payday and a holy holiday....
And the start of a long weekend....
And it is suuny out...
Maybe I will try to take Buddy for a walk...
Try is the key word here, because if Buddy decides not to walk...
Buddy, the big baby Pit Bull I am sitting is a great dog.
Most of the time.
He is good to walk with...
Most of the time...
He does not pull me - he actually heels when I tell him to...
He does not bark at strangers - when we are walking. When we are sitting in the living room and someone comes within 200 hards of the locked front door, he goes ballistic. But I digress...
Back to the walking...
Or not walking....
Every so often on our walks, Buddy decides he just wants to stop...
So he does...
No amount of cajoling or threatening or commanding gets him to move...
Untill he is ready to move...
And then only in the direction that he is ready to move in...
Which is usually not forward...
It is not like he stops at the same place all the time either; otherwise, I could avoid that part of the walk...
Someday I know I am going to be a mile or two from home and Buddy is going to decide he is done walking...
In any direction...
And there he will sit...
Because I am not carrying his ass anywhere....
And no after-walk treats for you, Buddy, if you cannot make it the whole way without stopping for a bit...
CareBear says you are fat anyway...
Fat and happy:)
