A Case of Apples and Oranges and Love
"Larry and I are like an old married couple now. We take each other for
granted, don’t really pay much attention, but we still need to reach out
and experience the other on a semi-regular basis. If he doesn’t come in
on time, I worry. If I am not awake early enough, he’s concerned. It
only takes a stroke of his fur to ground me. Food seems to do it for
him. He’s not sure why there are 22 apples and 15 oranges in the table. I
understand the randomness of supply.
I hate breaking quarantine,
but I have to occasionally. My car battery has gone flat because of
disuse. My brain is flat, too, for the same reason. I’m just lucky I
have 22 apples and 15 oranges."
