Kickass, the doorstop dog, reports the keeper is celebrating the 6th anniversary of his traveling to Arizona to kidnap Phyllis in her own car to come and live with him in Wisconsin at a time in their lives when falling can be a hazard unless it is falling in love and then it is a rare and wonderous thing.
The record will show that the keeper suggested therapy for Phyllis when she agreed to exchange Arizona for Wisconsin, despite her having experienced many Wisconsin winters in previous lives. The keeper chooses to think that a closer proximity to her three Midwest children was not a factor in Phyllis’s decision and that she simply found the prospect of life with the keeper irresistible.
For his part, the keeper recognizes his rare good fortune, and he sets himself up as proof that it is never too late in life for a love bonus!
(Kickass claims some credit as the initial contact between Phyllis and the keeper was when Phyllis commented on a Kickass Facebook post. Who would believe!
