I am rarely late for anything....except making it to Kelly's house before she leaves two dozen agitated messages on my cell and house phones. Today....I was on a roll. I can't really blame anyone but myself...but I wonder if I was sleep-walking or something. It started out great. I got up by seven knowing I was planning to leave the house by nine. Except....I poured a cup of coffee, sat down in my chair, let the cat curl up in my lap...and promptly fell back asleep....until 9. Ooops. So...rush to get ready...zoom by my boss's house to pick up a pet carrier...and I'm off. My mind wasn't on the trip I was taking today; I was drifting along in a couple of places, but I was NOT focusing on my driving. It probably showed when the nice occifer pulled me over outside McCammon...and told me I was doing 75 in a 55 mph zone. What could I say? Oooops.... Fortunately, he ran my license and came back saying, "You haven't gotten any tickets in a long time." "No, I don't think I've gotten a ticket in more than 15 years." "I'm going to give you a warning this time, but you were going pretty fast when you passed that car back there." "Thank you. I apologize, and I appreciate your generosity." I wondered...for a stupid moment...what he would say if he saw me five minutes later when I realized I was doing 95 in a 75 mph zone. Hmmmm.... I took the wrong turn at Pocatello. I needed to stop at Home Depot and pick up a couple of things. No place to turn around until I reach Fort Hall, some ten miles further up the highway. Still not running late....yet. I grabbed the things I needed and glanced at my......ummm.....I wasn't wearing my watch. Oh dear. Glance at the guy at the next cash register...does his watch really say noon? Heck, I was supposed to be in Blackfoot by noon. Hurry up to the car and race for Blackfoot. I only got there a half hour late. I was very glad that the lady I was supposed to meet had not yet shown up. Actually, she never showed up. But....I had to wait while a travel cage was built and I visited with my friends there...and then left with the new baby. She's so sweet and beautiful. Who'd have ever thought a rooster could be so precious? Hurry up back to Fort Hall to pick up my boss's new puppy. Schnauzers are cute as heck...and they had a lot of puppies....and only one salt and pepper puppy...and....ok....so...I came home...with a new bird, my boss's puppy...and my new puppy....who I think is going to be named Schatze....cause it suits her. I'm not sure why I did it...well...no...I know exactly why I did it...I'm just not going to admit to it....but she already rules the house...and is presently sleeping on my dirty laundry....and I think I need a sign on the front of my house....Soda Springs Zoo....what was I thinking? Feel the passion, walk in peace, live in love....Ari

Schatzi means "little treasure" in German as you probably already knew. So it would be very appropriate. Celebrate life!
