Me And My Shadow

In mum's opinion, I have been a handful today. I have nearly broken my sheepskin tug-of-war toy. I have been sitting like a sphinx, emitting meaningful barks every now and then, below the place on the secretaire where I know the remnants of my balloon still lie. I have dropped my ball and my elk chips deliberately and repeatedly from the sofa, then barked to get mum's attention. I try to argue that if you go shopping, I will end up under-stimulated, just waiting for you to come home and play with me, or even better, go outside with me. Simple dog logic!

This is how long my shadow is at noon. Quite impressive of the sun, hanging low in the sky like that.
