I spent the day at a friend's, doing outside manual labor (brrr!).
My lame-o tennies were woefully insufficient for the task of
keeping my feet warm, so I stopped on the way to buy new boots.
Mmmm, cozy toesies!

Anyway, when I came home, Harriet toddled sleepily out of the
bedroom to greet me. I bent down to rub her ears, and she bent
down to sniff my shoes. Standard procedure, right? Except that
the olfactory dissonance of OHMYGODWHOSEFEETAREYOUWEARING?!
b0rkened her little pea brane, and she launched herself sideways
across the room in shock. I have never before seen a dog move that
quickly while staying flat to the ground. It was kind of amazing.

My new shoes have now been thoroughly and completely sniffed, and
have been deemed Allowed.

It's official. Your dog is a dork. Not that you didn't know and
celebrate that already.

Yep. I think "You dumbass!" was what popped out of my mouth.

True. It's just that I'm occasionally amazed at how often I get
the opportunity to "celebrate" her "specialness."
