"Whenever I go for walks, I troll for love from anonymous dogs. First, I
ask the human owner if I can pet their dog. Then I get down on my knees
and the dogs love me up and lick the wax out of my ears. I nuzzle their
necks and practically give them a hickey. What I'd really love to do is
to lie on a field with a hundred dogs and just roll around and have an
orgy of affection. I'd prefer that to a human orgy."
Jonathan Ames
It's maybe weird that the single passage I have most personally identified with in my recent internet history was written by a middle aged man in 2003. What can I say? Mr. Ames and I clearly see eye to eye on the topic of our canine friends. His Slate diary is aimlessly compelling.

Oh, he just described one of my ultimate joys. I love dogs and always said to my husband that one of the moments when I feel the happiest is when I'm lying or sitting on the grass surrounded by pups and dogs jumping all over me. I do get to indulge like this in spring and summer whenever we take our pupster for walks in the wild... I guess people find me a bit odd, but most understand or so I hope. :)
