My mommie's cousin came over the other day. She seemed happy when she first arrived, but after all of the humans came back from dinner, I realized that the cousin was missing. Hmmmmmm? I recall hearing the soft rumble of her Honda Civic pulling in and the grinding noise that her emergency brake makes when she pulls it up. Where is she?

Some time later, the cousin came in and began to cry. Her boyfriend had broken up with her......for absolutely no good reason -- that jerk! She sat down and couldn't stop crying. I tried to comfort her. I could smell the rise in her body temperature and the salt in her warm tears. All I could do was look into her wrenched face and offer a pair of sympathetic brown eyes. I stayed by her side for as long as she needed me and nudged her tear-soaked hands to let her know, "I'm here for ya, girl!" I sighed heavily as she ran into the bathroom to let out a healthy cry.
