Valentine’s Day tradition

Los Angeles 1998

Me and about ten other losers are standing in line at the flower shop. The sun is going down, and there's a feeling of desperation and impatience. We shuffle forward slowly. Why does this holiday always sneak up on me?

The owner's chihauhua trots out from behind the counter. He walks along the line of customers, giving each one a casual sniif. Eventualy he makes his way to the eight foot high pyramid a teddy bears in the corner. He bites one around the neck and drags it out to the center of the shop. We all watch in silence as he proceeds to hump the bejeezus out of the bear. Five minutes, ten minutes, time seems to slow as he goes to town on the stuffed animal. The store owner gets up with a grunt. Walks over to the dog... "Bad Pepe. A thousand times I tell you no!" she picks up the teddy bear, having to peel the dog off like a banana, and stuffs it back in the pyramid.

I don't know what to say except the dog must have nothing but fun with the contents of the pyramid daily.

Here is end of 2018 in the Honey Baked Ham shop two days before Christmas. Sunday morning at 7:50AM. Check the demographics. White grandpas who could not handle the Saturday afternoon line.

No pyramid in sight.

I let my wife sleep inside and allow her to use the hot shower instead of the garden hose.

Today is the 15th. I told MrsWD it's time to start getting in shape for Steak and BJ day. Never to early to start practicing.
"WD, I checked the freezer. We don't have any steak."
"That's OK honey..."
