Rainy Days and... Well, Rainy Days
Apr. 10th, 2008 09:23 amMurphy - the other Murphy, not my dog - seems to have discovered a new game to play with me.
Ben, my other dog, is due for his shots. Now, it's a pretty fair hike - a couple of miles - from here to the vet, so I can't take him over on any day when I teach. That knocks out Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. According to the vet's secretary, Saturdays have been, for some reason, extremely busy for them lately, so Saturday is out too.
For the past two or three weeks, however nice the weather may be on Monday or Wednesday, every Tuesday and Thursday has been dismal. (The wind is howling and the rain pouring down even as I type these words.) And I am not taking a pair of two-mile strolls with a frisky terrier in the rain.
I have made, and had to cancel, two appointments with the vet in the last couple of weeks. We're going to try again Sunday afternoon. (Yes, they're open on Sunday. I did not know this.) The forecast is for fair weather. We'll see if Murphy wants to play another round....
