In this debut piece, Sally uses the death of her dog Melvin to reflect on her life. This first-person narrative is peppered with witty metaphors and has an excellent flow, anchored by memories of Melvin.

Although the bookend actuals are hard to hear at normal volume levels, Sally's delivery is clear and warm. She talks to the audience like she is talking to a good friend, rather than simply reading the script into a microphone.

There's a twist ending, but I won't spoil it.
