Piccolo in the Autumn
2009 October 31st
Today is the 31st of October and while driving Piccolo from Starbucks this morning, I thought I would write a little bit about him. His birthday was the 29th of September (2008), so he's a little over than a year and a month old. I took him home with me on the 1st of January of this year and I have ZERO regrets.
I never thought a being would bring so much happiness into my life. Maybe I'm a little emotional needy, but having my little boy cuddle up to me every night fills me with such happiness and love. I think it creates endorphins and puts me in a better mood. Sure, I am a little, how shall I say, I don't like the word "anal" - but I find myself following him around with baby wipes and I wash his four little paws a good five times a day. I may over-bathe him, the doctor told me it's okay as long as I don't overdo it. I figure if he's going to sleep in my bed, I'm going to keep him clean.
Speaking of bed, when I get into bed around 9ish, I usually have my lap top on my lap doing some work. He'll either come up and snuggle next to me OR he'll motion his nose as if he is trying to pick up the covers, which is a cue for me to let him get under the covers. He goes deep into the bed and lays against my legs. If I have had a long day and my calves are a little aching, his warmth helps me. And the warmth is like pure energy, not like a heating pad or a heating cream.
If you've read this far, I appreciate it. Today I went and bought Piccolo this pumpkin outfit. I was walking him and I could hear people laughing from their car. But unfortunately he hated it...and I didn't force the outfit on him.
