Major had a bit of a what you'd call a "leaky penis" problem so Meredith made him a velcro band with bananas on it so he wouldn't nervously dribble pee all over my apt.
On Saturday morning Meredith came over with Major and she brought along matching Hawaiin shirts for the dogs to wear to the Washington Square Park Dachshund Meetup. (Maddy is always so bummed when I put her in any kind of costume.). "Dad, please take this off me."
On Thursday Meredith came by to drop off Major for a little dogsitting adventure. He was really scared and nervous and it took me 20 minutes of coaxing to finally get him to let me pick him up.
On Sunday evening I went to Meredith's for an Easter dinner of vegetarina lasagna. I was still fighting a serious case of the sads and felt immense relief to be around the kind of friend where you are comfortable being at your worst. (Thanks for having me over for dinner when I was feeling so sad, Mer!)
