Show Motherlunge a novel 227 33. You May Surprise Yourself If you would like a dog, we'll get you one. I wouldn't want it to be a small one, a nervous one that pees on the floor when you yell at it, or trembles, and barks too much and usually at stupid things-the ceiling fan, the vacuum-or one that wants to sleep on your bed, and one that smells dirty or is dirty, one that lunges after other dogs, or humps legs and small children and soccer balls or adults crouched down to tie their shoes, or takes too long to find a place to shit, one that sheds, an underfoot-type of dog that trips you constantly, one that never leams to sit or do a trick, one that whines and cries and needs you too much, or one that doesn't discriminate. Shoves his wet-leather nose into your hand, whoever you may be. Still, if you want one like that-really love it for some reason, acutely-then, okay. |
