Dogs

Last weekend I decided to spend some time with my two dogs.

I was working on my Shakespeare homework and decided to lay down on the floor so I could cuddle with them.  I have a German Shepherd and a Terrier, both of which are extremely hairy.  Since I was on the ground, both of my dogs demanded attention.  I tried to please them both by using both hands to pet them and read King Lear at the same time.   

While petting my German Shepherd, my terrier rolled over on my book, breaking the already fragile binding.  The book ripped cleanly in half, and a few pages fell out as I try to put it back together.  Sensing that I am paying attention to something other then him, my Shepherd tries to lie down on me, getting hair all over my outfit.  The cuckoo clock in my house rings which lets me know that I am late to work.  I stand up with my broken book and look down at my uniform that is now COVERED in dog hair.  I spent the next ten minutes getting hair off my outfit and failed to be on time to work and study for class.

Next time I know not to multitask while doing my homework.
