Ridiculous things I’ve caught myself saying to the dogs

January 27, 2012 Filed Under: Argo the wonder dog, STELLA

  • Do you like my singing?  Exactly!  Because it’s fabulous.
  • Don’t yell at me. It’s not my fault you fell off the bed.  
  • I don’t appreciate your tone, young lady.
  • I know what you’re trying to say, you’re trying to say it’s time for breakfast ’cause it’s breakfast time! Oooh! 
  • It’s my turn on the treadmill.  You already had your turn!
  • I’m stress eating.  Don’t judge me.
  • Yeah, well, I don’t get a treat every time I want one either.

    My dogs do NOT like my singing. They look at me judgmentally and then hide in another room whenever I sing in the house.

    I once had a cat that tried to climb into my hair every time I played the violin.

    I am a SAHM with my little girl and our Great Dane/Lab Mix. I talk to him all the time because he’s the only interaction I get! He judges me sometimes, I can tell. He gives me these looks like, “Alright, you know I can’t understand you, why do you still talk?”

It’s National Library Week. As a child, the libr It’s National Library Week. As a child, the library was my precious refuge. I took full advantage of the ability to read anything I wanted to while I was in the hallowed halls of a town library. And when I was overwhelmed by classroom life, spending lunch in the school library reading the encyclopedias was my favorite form of self-care. After my first novel came out, a childhood friend sent me a picture (first photo) from my hometown library. I don’t have the right words to explain the pride I feel to know that my own books are on the same shelves that held the books that taught me about storytelling when I was a child. And last year, right before the shutdown, when I popped in to the San Francisco Public Library, I got a little misty-eyed when I found a copy of STAY, with Argo’s beautiful face looking up at me (second photo). It is a powerful thing for our communities to have public libraries and the support of librarians who work so hard to cultivate safe spaces and free access to information and literature. Happy National Library Week to all of you. #nationallibraryweek
