Get happy


It is always good to see a friendly face when you are far from home. Yesterday my Person and I were on the road for hours and hours on our way to hang an art show at a gallery and then on the road hours and hours to get back home again. I am sure there were many other friendly faces around but they were whizzing by too fast for me to see and this friendly face was not moving at all.

Today I am not traveling by car. I am traveling in my dreams instead. It is hard to get your naps in when you are stuffed in a tiny Toyota and the sun is beaming right on your red rump and the car is bumping and swerving in the high prairie wind and your Person is howling "Summertime" to keep from falling asleep herself. I have a few hours of sleep to to put in before I am back up to "full" on my nap gauge.

But, if you aren't spending the day napping and you want to see a friendly face instead, just head west on that big old highway and at some point you will see one.
