Some days this dog saves my life. All I have to say, not even in real words, is get your beep beep. And this girl will go a-running. To find any of the myriad of plush toys lying about that still has a working musical component. And she will commence immediately to play me a song. Beep beep beeeeeep beep BEEP beep beeeeep beep Beep BEEEEEEEP. She will do it with a joy and abandon. No matter the state of her belly, full or empty, or whether she has had a tough day. These compositions are supremely comforting and full of an elan that can't be faked. She plops down with her instrument and plays it out loud, and in a way that perhaps makes sense only to us, in that moment. Life is a beep-beep flow, and we're in it. Play me another and I will remember the notes, and feel thankful.
