The Giggles

I had the giggles last night as I watched a Japanese cartoon with my son. I was having a cocktail (vodka cranberry and diet 7up) and after reading again parts of the book The Sheik was looking at my two dogs laying at my feet. And suddenly the thought of 100s of dogs laying at my feet appeared. Dogs worship their owners (at least most of them, and my westies do me) anyway, all of a sudden I could imagine a very frustrated Rudy and the dogs as women who read the book The Sheik and Rudy, exclaiming, "I'm not The Sheik" and I had the most joyful giggles. I know that Rudy's time is technically now anciet history (although he never will be) but there was a time that fervor was at an all time high and Rudy was in the center of it --- and had no control and it probably not only perplexed him that women were so enraptured by him (as the Sheik) but annoyed him because if you try to walk around with a bunch of doggies under foot you will soon find how very difficult in can be.

Anyway, I have a feeling though I would be no better than these women who idolized this man. I probably would lay at his feet and lick his toes whenever I got the chance.
