Looks like Serenity may be re-evaluating her general distaste for Jamie! Or y’know… not.
Just this past Sunday I went to an extremely well-attended live recording of the Ink Panthers Podcast at Bergen Street Comics here in Brooklyn. I woke up at 10am and went online to find that it started at 11am, not 1pm as I had thought, so I rushed to get ready and ran out the door!
Even thought Bergen Street is a relatively quick trip on the subway, it’s just close enough (2 miles) that I can walk it in a decent amount of time, so I brought one of my two dogs, Ollie, with me. The show was advertised as “pet-friendly” and I know Alex Robinson brings his dog Wrigley just about everywhere, so I figured bringing Ollie would be a pretty safe bet. The little guy’s getting chunky anyway, so I knew the walk would do him good!
Once I got there, I realized the place was PACKED, and I had just finished walking Ollie through the rain and the mud for two miles, so I gave him some water and let him dry off a little before we went in. It was so full of people that there wasn’t anywhere to sit even only half an hour after the advertised start time! Usually things like this start about half an hour later than advertised, so I figured it probably hadn’t started yet, but boy was I wrong! I didn’t mind standing the entire time but poor fat Ollie had nowhere to lay down! Eventually he just sort of slumped onto the floor in the middle of the aisle and I had to move him every time someone passed by, which I felt a little bad about, but the poor guy was exhausted!
After the show ended, Ollie got plenty of attention from children and adults alike who wanted to pet the adorable fluffy dog, and since getting petted is his favorite thing (second only to snuggling with people on chairs and couches) I think it’s safe to say he had a pretty good time! Once we got home, the total 4-mile walk really tuckered him out, and he went right to sleep.
