when marty first saw it, she said she felt she knew what people with difficult pets, like marley (?), must feel like.
moments later she added if anthony were a dog she'd get rid of him.
i asked how she'd do that. via a dog pound or a country road.
she said a pound.
as she started getting into the real messy parts of it, i said i didn't believe her and thought she'd go the country road route.
she didn't respond.
if there's a silver lining, because it is during moments like this you most need to look for silver linings, it is that now when anthony gets wet, because of the non-water-soluble, expensive, medicinal (for exema) lotion he smeared all over himself, water now beads up on his skin like he were a newly waxed sportscar.
this is especially true of the foot that is sitting inside the tub. when i first saw his foot submerged in the container i thought why would he do that. then after pondering it a moment i thought, at this point why the hell wouldn't he do that.
