So the title of my blog is “That Girl and Her Dog”. It comes from the Wizard of Oz where the witch (who still kind of scares me a little, by the way) says, “Bring me that girl and her dog.” I never understood why the Wicked Witch wanted Toto, too. I hope she wasn’t going to kill him. That’s a sadistic thought.
Anyway, I have my own Toto. His name is Winston and he out-weighs Toto by 85 lbs. He would still try to fit in a picnic basket, though. He doesn’t have a very realistic self-image. I guess most of us don’t. Anyway, he is the most devoted friend I’ve ever had. I know that whatever I go through, we go through together. Hence the title. If I move into a 350 square foot studio in Manhattan, Winston will be right there on top of me. I’ve decided that every Dorothy needs a Toto. When you’re about to go on a journey, you need someone who is there for no other reason but to support you, and keep you out of harms way, and who doesn’t get mad no matter how many wrong turns you make.
I always said I was going to have a production company or record company or something named That Girl and Her Dog Productions. I think it’s even more fitting for the blog.
Side Note: HAPPY 4TH of JULY!!! This country is a gift.
