Every down
I write often about my dog Bucket. He's a character, to be sure. Me and Buck. Don't know what I'd do without him. He's over there on his side of the bed, snoring. He's quite content.
When I got up this morning at seven to take care of some personal business, Katie was on the bed too. I went out to the kitchen to get a drink of water and when I got back, Katie was in my spot on the bed, head on my pillow, and wasn't gonna move for nothing. I moved her and she grumped and we got to sleep again. But not without Bucket getting into the act.
He's very jealous. He wormed his snout in so he was closer and that's when I thought to myself that Katie will come up and hang out when she wants to but Bucket is different. He's an "every down" kind of dog. It's a football analogy. Bucket plays every play. He's always underfoot. He's always right there whether I'm happy or not. If I was gettin' too close to the girl, Buck was right in the middle. Let's just say that Bucket was either a good middle linebacker or an excellent CB. (double entendre intended in this case!)
Anyway, he's always there; even when nobody else is.
As for me, I'm glad to have him along for the ride. This chasing lions business is tiring work and it's good I have a companion to do ti.
