walking the dogs

I should have typed this up two weeks ago.. then again, I should have renewed my driver’s license in April. It’s all about priorities, people. I’m trying to get mine in order.

Yesterday, I mentioned that Callia and I walk Guido every morning. A couple weeks ago, Callia was rushing to get her socks and shoes on in time to go race me to the park bench. Guido and I went on out to put some letters in the mailbox. Once Callia was ready, the door burst open and out she ran, yelling at us to wait for her. Behind her, she was dragging her little electronic puppy on a leash – one of those things with two buttons: bark and walk. It doesn’t walk very well and it sure doesn’t race at all. We walked up the street together, me holding Guido’s leash, Callia dragging her toy puppy behind her. She wasn’t holding the ‘walk’ button, but it didn’t matter cause he was on his side and spinning around.

It was really cute, and I wish I had a picture of us walking our dogs together.. but my camera’s broken and I think we’re years away from cyborg technology being affordable to the common man.. so that’s not an option yet.
