I felt
a strange nibbling and pulling under my leg. I don’t know about you, but I don’t
typically experience that type of sensation. Were these the peculiar symptoms
of some new medical condition, I wondered?
No. It
turns out the sensation was the result of my dog, Lucy, trying to pull a chair
pad out from under me while I was sitting on it.
I sternly
said to her, “Hey, what are you doing?”
Then she
gave me the innocent puppy dog look as if to say, “What? I don’t know what you’re
talking about. I’m simply trying to live my life and accomplish some meaningful
objectives.”
She
considered my question to be an overreaction and wondered if, perhaps, I needed
a time out.
In the
meantime, Rachel found the fact that Lucy tried to take the pad out from under
me to be wonderfully amusing. She laughed and laughed.
It is
very satisfying to be able to provide some amusement for the household.
