It's Raining

I've been considering taking back everything I've said about not being a dog walker. My heart is torn. Torn between the flood of unemployed office workers giving dog walking a try and a desire to reach out to the wannabe dog walkers of the world.

It's the middle of January. A new year, a new decade and time for me to turn over a new leaf. Let it be known that as of today, my message to you is, BE A DOG WALKER. That's right, shut down your Farmville game, get out of your PJ's, decline that unemployment extension deal and come make an offer on my business.

From now on, it's up to YOU to figure out how to make it through one more Seattle winter without drowning in a three inch mud puddle diving after a dog who won't leave the park. It's YOUR turn to fill your holiday wish list with Smartwool and Gortex, Shamwows and eyeglass squeegees. And best of all, YOU get to come up with your own snappy comebacks for your clients when they say, "Stay dry out there!" as rainwater drips off the tip of your nose while you coax their dog from it's bed by the heating vent.

Get in touch with your inner five year old! Buy a yellow rain slicker with matching boots. Stomp through puddles until your toes rot and fall off. Rediscover the joy of spending a day with the ends of your sleeves soaking wet. Restore your skin to baby's ass smoothness with a windblown sand and natural rainwater exfoliating treatment.
