Ok, I need to be clear about this, in case some point in the future my partner decides she wants to collect my scribbles, but i spend every day happily in conversation with her, friction and all. These hours are indeed the ties that bind. She has always been my most astute conversationalist.

But the thing about the dog is - no words, ever. We are always just being. It's a kind of unspoken selfishness on my part, the taming of the dog. His demands are easy and good for me as well. It's an uncomplicated kind of love.

Yet without those other complications that family provides & inspires, I fear I would be only a shell of myself.
