A liquid morning

(15 minutes into morning walk with dog)

"Just pee. Seriously dog. It doesn't matter where you go!!"
**blank dog stare**
"Ollie, go to the potty now."
**tail wagging TAIL WAGGING TAIL WAGGING!!!!!!!!!!!!**
"Dog! It's raining and you are going to go potty NOW!"
**plops bottom down and lolls tongue at me**
"OH MERCY! JUST PEE! GOTOTHAPOTTYNOWDOG!"

(random neighbor I didn't see skulking in shadows bursts into laughter)

*dog bolts over to give kisses*

and then

THEN DOG PEES RIGHT IN FRONT OF NEIGHBOR IN A FIT OF SHEER
EXCITEMENT.
