Tangle Up Tuesday

Oh. Hi there. It’s Tuesday and tales are flying. Gossip is rife.

I’m on a roll today. I rolled out of bed, rolled into the shower, rolled around soaping up, drying off, dressing, and drinking coffee. I rolled into work. I’m not sure, but I think I’m still semi-conscious. Help?

I’m in a story telling mood this week. So let me tell you a story.

My name is Beckett. Mom named me for some weirdo playwright. I don’t even know what a playwright is, but there you go. I like my name. I think it suits me. I love to hear Mom whistle for me and call my name. I always answer. I love my Mom. She throws my ball and lets me run after it and catch it and bring it back. She doesn’t try to steal it from me very often. She also lets me snuggle against her on the sofa or the bed or anywhere she goes.

I don’t like snuggling in that car-thing we ride in to the vet’s office. It reminds me we have to go and sometimes he sticks things in my butt and then puts sharp pointy things in my neck. Sometimes he just forces a chunky thing down my throat. I try to be nice to him. I try to be nice to everybody. I love everybody. I love my ball. I love my yard and my house. Oh…there goes one of those car-things.

I’m back. I love the Beatles too. That’s the sound that Mom says comes out of the box in the living room.

Mom says I’m cute. I think so too. So does Felicity. She lives next door. I love Felicity.

Mom says she picked me. She says she picked me out of all the pups in the shelter. I’m a lucky dog.

Mom loves me and feeds me and gives me toes and brushes my hair and gives me treats. I’m a lucky dog.

Mom says adopting a dog from the shelter is the right thing to do.

I think she’s right. I love my mom.

I like to swim in the pool too. I love water. Mom loves water. I love Mom.

Gotta go. Mom’s got the ball! Wheeeeeeeeeee. I love the ball!
