Seamus The Bloodhound on a Straight Tequila Night
No, the tequila bottle was not photoshopped into his mouth, and no we didn't hand it to him. He picked it up himself. Yes, he is taking care of some personal business, and there does seem to be a diaphanous cloud rising from his hindquarters (that was not visible to the naked eye), but look how focused and dignified he remains multi-tasking in the harsh intrusive glare of the paparazzi.
There is a psychiatric/psychological diagnosis called "Folie a Plusieurs," which is a French phrase literally meaning "Madness has Several." This disorder was first discovered by French Psychiatrists, thus the French name. The illness may occur when people are so enmeshed with each other they actually adopt the psychosis or psychoses of their companions.
The imagery which the phrase~Madness has Several~evokes, for me,is simply enchanting.
This is my portal into my ownfolieand joy. I am a Stay Home, HomeSchooling Mother to a ten yearold Human Boy, a four yearold Bloodhound Boy, and a six year oldretired racing Greyhound Boy. My Husband (also a Boy), Jonathan, and I have been marriednearly 15 years. They are my treasures.
Here is mylens forthe epoch we share-past and present. These aremy hopes, ruminations,and of course, delirious thoughtsbutwhat always burns most vividly is the beautiful laughter.
Hold on tight to la folie avecmoi mon pretties.
