Start the day laughing

I've never had a six month old Cocker puppy before, it still surprises me the things he'll play with. I was on my hands and knees under the kitchen table, left arm stretched out trying to plug something in, and here comes Topaz. Zoom! Pounce! patting the hand that's on the floor. Rather like a kitten pats at a string or whatever its playing with. But his puppy paws are all grown up already, nearly the size of my hand. It became very difficult to push the plug into the wall because I was laughing so hard. He was playing and playing with my hand. Buzzing around in circles under me and around me. Batting at the cord. His tail was not docked and so it looks like a setter's tail and it was in my face. I guess you had to be there. But it is one of the best ways to wake up in the morning, laughing and laughing. The microwave did get plugged in (after he went tearing away to bother a big dog). So I had a good laugh, and a cup of hot tea. What's not to like?
