Red and Rover by Brian Basset for February 16, 2010

Back in my school daze I had a dog that associated “home from school time” with the lead in music of one of my mom’s soap operas. He could be sound asleep in his doggy bed and presto, he was looking out the window after just a few notes. To test this theory, my mother would mute the volume every once in a while at that time and he wouldn’t “know” to watch for me.
