Lucy

I slept until almost 10 am this morning but was awake at 4 when David usually gets up. Don't ask me why he gets up at that ungodly hour because I have no answer. Only farmers get up that early. Maybe he was a farmer in his previous life. Anywho, I turned over and went back to sleep and at some time during that wonderful warm comfortable sleep, Lucy crawled into bed with me, curled up and started snoring in my ear and that woke me up for good.

The funny little thing about Boston Terriers is that when they get comfortable they snore. It has something to do with the fact that they are brachycephalic, meaning short head. Dogs that have what looks like a pushed in snout snore a lot and they fart like little old men which sometimes, as I have told David, that both Lucy and Spunky could knock several buzzards off a shit wagon at 50 paces. Hence the reason why I keep a candle lit in any room that I happen to be in during the day. I will go so far as to take it with me because anywhere I go, Lucy goes with me.

Personally, the reason why Lucy follows me is that she is taking mental notes on how to be human. YES! SHE IS! Lucy is a keen observer. She has been taking notes on how to dress, walk upright and how to greet other humans. She has noticed that we humans hug or shake hands and not smell each other's butts. She is learning how to be human. I think it's because she's hoping the blue fairy, no, wait, that's for puppets, not puppies. Anywho she's waiting for that one special night for her fairy godmother, yeah, that's right, to come and change her into a real live human little girl, or something close to that. I just hope she doesn't fart as much because man that little dog could be labeled as a weapon of mass destruction.
