Shower Epiphany: An Honest Relationship

My old friend Joe from my SMC days once told me that the most honest relationship is on the planet is between prostitute and John. Money is exchanged for services. Anything else is extra. Nothing personal. Kind of depressing, but true.

And yet, I have to say no. There is another. While passing by doing laundry the Small Blonde looks up at me from her bed and she wags her tail happily. I give her attention, she wags tail and loves it. I feed her, she thanks me. We spend happy time then she goes off into the sunny spot to take a nap. I come back into the room, she's happy to see me. I leave, she whimpers. I have something yummy and I treat her. I sleep alone and she comes up for cuddle time and sometimes wakes me by bathing. Overall, when she wants me around she goes look for me. When she is tired, she leaves.

Simple and a lot more wholesome.
