Bud is a 17-year old Shih-Tzu who deigns to share his residence with my husband and me in beautiful Coral Gables, Florida. Now, YOU may think that is old for a dog, but Bud has other ideas. Since he and I started chatting, Bud has seen fit to share his perspective of life, food, politics, sex, and whatever else pops into his canine cranium. How long he will wax poetic on the world at large is unknown. But neither of us is worried about the destination. We're both enjoying the hell out of the journey.
It all started one day in January of 2016 when I was minding my own business trying to avoid housework:
Conversations with Bud:
Bud: Do the laundry. Or don't. I've made a comfy nest here.
Me: I wouldn't dream of disturbing you, old man.
Bud: Thought so.
