I once read in a book a series of sentences that people came up with to replace “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” (e.g., sentences that use every letter of the alphabet). My favorite of the bunch was, “A pox upon you, Jergens, you old beanbag – you’ve squashed my favorite zwieback!” ---

My left ankle hurts. It feels like I cut it on something. I want to check it out. But, I have a 21 pound puppy sitting in my lap and I just don’t have the motivation to shift her. In addition, I have to pee and she’s leaning on my bladder. But, she’s so obviously comfortable. Do I have it in me to make her move?
