WALKING THE DOGS “MY WAY”

EVERYDAY I WALK MY TWO HAVANESE DOGS (THE GIRLS) ---I USED TO WALK THEM OUTSIDE…. BUT FOUND…. THE OTHER DOGS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD MADE ME ANXIOUS…WHICH MADE THE GIRLS ANXIOUS…WHICH MADE THE OTHER DOGS MORE AGGRESSIVE. SO I HATCHED THIS INGENIOUS PLAN TO WALK THEM IN THE HOUSE. FOR 20 MINUTES I WOULD WALK THEM ON THEIR RETRACTABLE LEASHES AROUND THE KITCHEN ISLAND AND THROUGH THE DINING ROOM ONTO THE LIVING ROOM AROUND THE PIANO ….YOU GET THE PICTURE. I ALWAYS SET THE KITCHEN TIMER FOR 20 MINUTES…SOMETIMES I SING WHILE WALKING THEM; SOMETIMES I TALK ON THE PHONE USING A HEADSET. THIS SYSTEM WORKED WELL FOR ME---I DIDN’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE WEATHER---HOT IN THE SUMMER (115º) AND COLD (75º) DURING OUR SHORT WINTER. THE DRESS CODE WAS CASUAL---SOME OF MY OUTFITS MIGHT EVEN GAIN PRAISE FROM PROJECT RUNWAY. SO HERE I AM WALKING THE DOGS ONE DAY AND THE LITTLE ONE (JELI) COMES TO A SUDDEN STOP… NOT WANTING TO LOSE MY STRIDE….. I TURN MY HEAD TO SEE WHAT HER PROBLEM IS----DID I MENTION THE LARGE PLASMA TV THAT IS ON A RETRACTABLE ARM---THAT WASN’T RETRACTED? WELL I SMACKED INTO THE METAL BACK OF THE TV MOUNT-----DO YOU THINK I SAW STARS? DO YOU THINK I WAS STUNNED---YUP TO BOTH THOSE QUESTIONS. BUT FUNNY THING---I KEPT WALKING IF ONLY NOT TO CRY---I MIGHT HAVE HAD A SMALL CONCUSSION---I KNOW I HAD A MAJOR BUMP AND TORKED THE BLANK OUT OF MY NECK. SO THE MORAL TO THIS STORY IS---EITHER RETRACT THE TV-----OR NEVER LOOK BACKWARDS WHILE WALKING THE DOGS AT 30MPH.
