Mozart and I decided to enjoy the nice weather, so we went for a stroll. At his age, we aren't really running anymore, but if he wants to walk, I let him. I have a real hard time telling him no.
We ran into a young man who is 28 years old. I'm a bit standoffish with new people. I am a recluse for a reason, and I enjoy my inner circle, but with new people, you just have to accept what they come with, and you have no idea what energy that is going to be. This young man was super pleasant.
He couldn't believe Mozart was 15 years old. He also couldn't believe Mozart loves everyone, including children. He said, "Children pet dogs too hard," and I said, "Mozart puts up with it. He'll lie down and let them pet him as long as they want." Heck, I even have pictures of children lifting him, and he'll just dangle in their arms and not try to escape. We do try to discourage him from dangling, though.
We talked a while. He's lonely. I get it. I would be extremely lonely, too, if I didn't have Mozart. He has his parents, but he wants mutual friends. I explained my age, and he said he couldn't tell. 😂 My friend! I am almost 2x your age! I'm old enough to have a child close to your age.
He goes to a Boba shop down the street to see who is there to talk with. I didn't think of that. Too bad there aren't meet and greets like speed dating, but with friends. Maybe I should look that up to make sure there aren't.
I told Emory about my adventure, and we laughed. I don't think I'm extremely outgoing, but my aura must be bright because I do meet a lot of people when I'm just walking. I never approach people first, unless they have dogs.... Holy Moly! I think I just found why people talk to me! 😂
I'm looking at rescues because I want two more dogs. Not right now, because Mozart needs a lot of love and attention. Plus, I don't think he needs a lot of stimulation. We're trying to keep our lives quiet right now. I swore to the person who gave him to us that I would treat him like my baby. I think I held true to my word. They didn't give a flying hoot, though, because they were going to drop him off at a kill shelter on that Monday, and I saw him on a Saturday. They just gave him with no money exchange. They wanted him gone.
Writing Update:
I renamed all my stories and I'm really feeling it. So the stories that only had place holders now have names. The stories that had names felt wrong so I renamed those ones. This is probably not what I should have spent my hour doing, but it was one of those things that's been nagging me so I gave in.
KBC: I had two point of views, but I think this might be better told by one person. I am going to lose a super cool scene where my MC fairy does a favor for my MC werewolf, and its from my fairy's point of view.
