It makes me feel strangely alive

So I am walking the dogs this morning, and I see a cushion. As in, a whole-body-sized cushion, designed to be tied onto a sunlounger or the like. And it's in the middle of Woodbury Avenue, and traffic is swerving around it. Now Woodbury Avenue is already narrow enough that people have to stop and let each other through if anyone's parked there, and I didn't think it was a great idea to leave the thing there. So I went to move it.

I'd only had one cup of coffee, or I'd have realised what was about to happen.

EDIT: There's also video, except for some odd reason Livejournal won't let me embed it. What the hell is up with that?

...I totally SHOULD have. I'm just not very functional before noon or so.

P.S. There's also video - LJ wouldn't let me post it the first time.

We legged it fairly fast, I can tell you!

Hahaha. Something similar happened with the BYB down the street. His pibbles obliterated his porch swing. LOL.

But you know he enjoys making your life interesting before noon!

I hope he didn't eat any of the stuff!

OMG there are days when I wish I could let myself go and play like a dog. It's a joyous thing to watch a dog destroy something!

It is! I felt a bit bad though, as I suspect that cushion had been blown (or teenagered) out of someone's garden, and they might have wanted it back. It was quite newish and - until it got Spiked - in quite good nick.

I couldn't stop him though. i picked the thing up and he was on it like a terrier on a rat - I don't have long enough arms to have kept it away from him and he was far too quick for me besides. So I just gave up and got the giggles. :D

I know right? SO MUCH FUN!

I was wondering if it had blown out of someone's yard accidentally...but it was so ...ummm...fulfilling...to see it get shredded, and so much FUN, too...LOL

spike has to do his court mandated community service. :)

He probably thought it was a threat & was killing it to protect you.

ohhhh hell yes it was fun.

to be fair to Spike, if I had got my "No" in before he had hold of it, he would have left it. I was just a bit too dozy and he was a lot too fast.
