The Day I Met Her

I remember it all like it was yesterday. I was sitting in a show case, waiting for my time to shine. The moments came and went as people held me but found better things to do. And that was bullshit. Then one day, I was practicing my lines for an upcoming audition, when they interrupted me and put me in her arms. What the hell, you don't just grab a man when he's in the middle of something. But whatever. So I pretended I didn't mind and allowed her to hold me. Suddenly they replaced the piece of plastic around my neck with a nice new blue collar and leash. What were they, presents to appease me? Hah. As if those lowly possessions could raise her standing in my eyes. I wagged my tail just to humble her, and the biggest smile crossed her face. That's when I decided to adopt her and go with her to my new home. I needed a change of scenery anyway. Hopefully she has proper staff there who can meet my demands.
