Dogs or Chickens

Ok, so it's been raining for about 6 months, or so it seems. That's not difficult for us humans. we have opposable thumbs and can hold umbrellas. However, the dogs have GOT to get out for their daily constitutional. (Walk, ya know?) I am not talented enough to hold two leashes as well as an umbrella. If these two do not expend some energy, they begin to lick their paws, behinds, or each other until someone or something bleeds. If they were humans I think they'd be heavy drinkers or nail biters. (Lucky would probably opt for talk therapy, but he's in touch with his feelings more than Molly.) Anyway, the thunder and lightening really kicked in this afternoon. That sent Molly crawling under the computer desk and Lucky trailing close behind. Chickens, both of them. I tried to reason with them, explaining the weather pattern we're currently in, but they would have none of it. Thankfully, the skys have cleared and the dogs are dozing peacefully once again. Until tomorrow....
