Episode 4: A New Horror
Saturday, April 30th, 2005Mira got away this afternoon. Slipped by me when I opened the door to let Grits in. She ran into the woods, and I, accompanied by Grits, chased after her. I have no idea how far we went. I kept chasing, she kept running further. My knees are now totally shot. I’d already injured the right one earlier in the day, when Grits and Mira bowled me over while playing in the backyard. She also rolled in some poo or something smelly while in the woods. Tried to give her a bath. Managed to rinse most of the offensive material off her, but then she got out and shook what was left all over the bathroom. I finally ended up hosing her off outside.
BTW, whoever thought it was a good idea to make eye *ointment* for a dog should be shot. My landlord has to try to hold her down for me to get the ointment in. Just to get rid of stupid pink eye.
