feeling better about my dog rapport today - i'm trying to power through my management-mandated lunch hour on the patio at safeway, and folks keep abandoning their beasts outside the coffeehouse. everyone then sits on my feet: at present i have a black poodle and a cherubic sheltie mix. i am madge, patron saint of domesticated animals.
