Barkley

✎ What funny habit did they have?
Barkley would always wake up with his tongue sticking out because it got stuck to his lips while sleeping. The sound I remember most is his funny whines when I’d come home from work. He was always so excited to see me.

✎ What happened today that made you think of them?
If I could tell you one thing now, it would be that I always regretted not giving you the beef tips on your last day with me. They had hot sauce on them and I didn’t want you to get sick. If I had known I was about to lose you, I would have given them all to you. I miss you so much.
