Emily Dickinson Gaynor
In my limited experience with the phenomenon, love at first sight tends to require crowded rooms and alcohol consumption, not metal cages and a powerful odor of disinfectant. But there’s a first time for everything.
Our eyes met. A voice in my head informed me in no uncertain terms, “You’re late. Let’s go!” And we did.
My new canine companion trotted along Second Avenue with me, sporting a sexy blue tattoo on her belly that marked her chip implant and a new name in honor of the poet whose work can all be sung to The Yellow Rose of Texas. She was now officially Emily Because-I-Could-Not-Stop-for-Death Dickinson Gaynor. And I was wiped out by love, humming Barry Manilow songs, ready to believe in unicorns.
My previous relationships had all been with submissive, short-haired males of both our species — but this one is different in several ways. Emily is an alpha female Shih-Tzu mix, aggressively fluffy and with a startling habit of untying strangers’ shoelaces in elevators or while waiting for the light to change. She also views our ZIP code as a necessary first step toward world domination.
