and then I spent today feeling like I was going to throw up. Except I didn't throw up. I probably would've felt better if I had.
But with any luck, the disease is now out of everybody's system!
Lola was not there when I went to take out the garbage, but she ran up the stoop when she saw me. Not because she's fond of me, but because she knows I am a soft touch and always have food for her. And I did have food for her, on the condition that she actually approach me within 4.5 feet to get it, and on the same level rather than her on a porch and me on the ground.
It only took her five minutes to make the decision, and she didn't flee when I went inside to bring out more garbage either, so, you know, that's progress. I should've worked harder with her all this year, and I can't think why I didn't.
