sorry about the loose dog

Description

Sorry for not being friendlier this morning, when you walked your super adorable bulldog by my house around 9am Friday morning. I'd gone out to pick up after my neighbor's dog, who is a very cute little black-and-white something with pointy ears. But my neighbors don't walk their dog; instead, they kick her out of the house for about 5 minutes at some point between 8-10am. I usually work near the window, so I pick up after her in order to avoid having the porch and yard overrun with flies. This morning, I didn't realize that my neighbors hadn't let her back in when you'd walked by, or that your awesome, happy-looking dog probably anchored themself at the gate because she was out (which is scary because their dog can fit through the gaps in the fence). When I saw you and your dog, I immediately became aware of the Ben and Jerry's ice cream stains on my sweatpants, and my weird posture, and I was grumbly about the fact that I'd been cleaning up after someone else's dog for a past month. If I hadn't become so self concious, I would've said hi, because you seem like a nice neighbor. My apologies for lumbering out of my house like a bigfoot at a slumber party, and I hope your day's nice!
