the joys of a pedestrian lifestyle

March 7, 2008 by Erin

Just for people who might need a laugh…
The other day it was clear and warmish (still hat weather, but better than the depths of winter) as I left to take spot on her morning walk. I put on my work clothes and a spring jacket and we walked down to the park. The pups were running out of food though, and I wasn’t going to be home in time to get to the store that night. So I tied Spot up to a post and ran in to get a 20 lb bag of dog food. As I walked out of the store it started sprinkling. But by the time I had gotten to spot and was fumbling at untying her leash, it started to pour. I hurriedly freed spot and we begin running towards my building. Me in my semi-professional clothes with a 20 lb bag of dog food over my shoulder and a standard poodle pulling me along excitedly as a sheet of rain opened up on us.

    At least the rain didn’t cause the dog food bad to split open on the way home…

    It’s true, it could have been worse. At least we weren’t too far from the building.
