It's spring and the flowers are smelling fine and the clouds are grey and the dog smells like dog. No amount of bathing takes the smell from her. No floral shampoo. I ran my car through the washman yesterday and the kids squeelled at the big bristles coming over the window, and now the red paint shines, but inside the car still smells like dog. Lenny the handyman came by today. He fixed a broken window in the front door, screwed a drawer back together, adjusted my ever-running toilet and replaced hinges on the sticky garage door. I wiped down the kitchen and vacuumed the living room before he arrived, but the house still smells like dog. WHich right now smells a little like stale smoke. Has she been out rolling in cigarette butts?
