Hello. It’s me!!

Yes, my world has been turned upside down.

First of all, are things so unsafe out there that we have to lock down all city-owned lamp posts?

It gets worse.

This is what happens when folks overreact to the rusted metal threat.

But then I get home and I find out there is a new pup next door … Zoey.

This is where the longing sets in.

Zoey?

Are you over there?

I can hear you next door … now if you could please stop by, I’m sure Dad would open the door and we could play.

Dad? The door.

Not makin’ a lot of progress on this door, Dad.

I could sit here all day if I need to, Dad.

I mean, we’ll get to the point where you can barely even see me over here, waiting and longing and waiting some more.

Oh, the heck with it. Give me a carrot and we’ll call it good.
