Caritas- Saturday

There were still puppies following Jaina around, but she didn't really mind at this point. They tended to stay out of her way while she needed to do things, such as now. When they curled up behind the bar all sleepily, though they'd probably wake up the second someone interesting came along.

They did not wake up for Tino, strangely enough.

Leda had heard the coolest song this morning and it had been stuck in her head all day. Answer? Sing! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N3Lr0adcYU)

"I don't mean to piss you off with things I might say
But when I try to shut my mouth they come out anyway
When I speak my mind, that's when we connect
But that's not politically correct

Your head's so filled with thought, you can't use your imagination
Like a sky so filled with stars, you can't find a constellation
And everyone's so sensitive to every bad vibration
We're so impressing while we're regressing

There's nothing I believe in more than my own insignificance
So why does everybody think that my words can make a difference
I just don't have time to think up every social consequence
I'll just keep on talking you keep applauding

I don't mean to piss you off with things I might say
But when I try to shut my mouth they come out anyway
If you spoke your mind you might feel more connected
But, until you get politically corrected

You lean a little to the left or the right but
You can only see what's on your side.
Look a little like a deer in the headlights
A little blind a little hypnotized.
So you conform with the best of intention
Change comes from inside.
After all that's what this country was founded on
Do nothing different just fall in line.

What happened to make us so afraid
You couldn't make a Mel Brooks movie today
I saw Blazing Saddles yesterday"

Ben wasn't generally much of a drinker, but yesterday had been long.

"Hi, Jaina," he said with a smile as he walked in and found an empty stool. "Can I have a soda?"

"Thank you for not asking to have it spiked," Jaina said, getting a glass.

Behind the bar, the puppies had woken up. One of them yipped cutely. As they were wont to do.

Ben's eyebrows arched up at the puppies. "Relatives of ours?" he asked.

"They woke me up and haven't left me since," Jaina said, reaching down to pick up the more-awake golden retriever and place it on the bar. And then she had to block it from going after the soda she put down for Ben.

"Do they have names?" Ben asked, sipping from his glass.

"That one's Sparky, and this one," she said, reaching to pick up the Shiba Inu, "is Cappie."

Sparky set himself by Ben, looking adorable with his tongue hanging out, barking to say hello.

"Hi, guys," Ben said, reaching out to scratch the pup behind the ears. "I could use you after yesterday."

"Fun with luggage?" she guessed, trying to keep Cappie from licking her face. Wasn't working.

He made a face. "It was a long day. You?"

"Once I could get out of my alcove I was able to mostly ignore it," she said. Granted, there'd been additional baggage raining down when talking to John, but she'd sort of expected that. "I debated keeping the scariest one to see if it'd get me through security faster next time I'm at the airport."
