No word on whether I'll be working today. This is worse than being unemployed.
It rained yesterday. I like walking Ethel, my dog, while I carry an umbrella. Dana met us in a pancho, which shows good common sense.
Ethel invented a new trick. At first I saw her do it and was surprised, thinking it was an accident, then she came running up to me to make sure she had my attention and did it again: She started running to get up to full speed and then she leaped into the air and torqued her body sideways so that she landed in a large puddle and sorted of skidded across it like skipping a stone on a pond.
She came back to make sure we'd seen her and to help her rub some of the caked mud out of her eye. She did it twice more. She did make some interesting waves.
It wasn't raining hard enough to clean the mud off of her so I had to give her a bath. Interesting that she likes to dive into filthy, cold puddles but finds nice clean water something of a pain.
