Hey! How's it going? Great to see you. Sorry I'm late.
Phone
ringing, emails pouring in – you simply wouldn't believe
the demand. Wouldn't believe
it. Insatiable. The pet market these
days – everybody and his brother wants a golden retriever
or a
persian cat or a big white bunny or a hamster or a ferret and
they
want it yesterday. It's crazy. It's nuts. But you – it's great
to see you. And I'm
excited. I'm excited because I know that
you're going to be excited. We had talked about
a Yorkshire
Terrier. Terrific dog. Love Yorkies. But here's the thing – big
Yorkie
shortage right now. Big. Can't get a Yorkie for love or
money. But you know what? It's for
the best. It is. Because
I've managed to get you something better. So much better that
'better'
doesn'teven begin to say it. I'm just going to blurt it out:
I got you a lama. A lama!
Can you believe it? I can see from your
expression that you can't. Well, of course you
can't. I couldn't
believe it either. You look angry. I understand. You're mad
at
yourself for ever even thinking that you wanted a Yorkshire Terrier.
I understand. Let
me give the two of you a moment to get
acquainted while I draw up the papers. What a day.
What a
day for you. What a day.
