Woke this morning to a sparkly kitchen. Our mischievous puppies, shown above laughing at me, had jumped onto the table during the night and chewed open a small plastic container of silver glitter. Bright sparkles were on the table and floor, on their black snouts. Soon and despite my early efforts at containment, human and canine feet carried the glitter into other rooms. Within an hour, I found a glimmering piece on a couch, several pieces in my hair and a trail of silver on the porch outside. Two hours later, the glitter has made it upstairs in random, taunting sparks.
As I cleaned in my pre-tea haze, I found myself thinking all types of deep thoughts, about human migration across the continents, about the spread of viruses, about the vitality of an original thought and how it spreads and sometimes, dilutes. Husband entered the kitchen and noticed the remaining flashes on the tile, mostly in the lines of grout. “That looks cool,” he said.
awesome. dogs are the best and a pain in the butt all at the same time. -kelly
