Good reason to be late for work

I chased a little Chihuahua this morning which made me a few minutes late for work and I couldn't catch the poor little thing. It was running around on Baroque (which is a pretty major street in our development). I felt bad what with it getting ready to rain and all. I am sure the poor little guy just got out when its owner wasn't looking since it had a collar. Much in the style of Willowmena T Fuzzer it wouldn't let me get anywhere near it without taking off at top Chihuahua speed (which is surprisingly fast for a little thing). It ended up losing me when it took a cut through path that I couldn't drive down. I hope its okay.
