I want to take care of a living creature. Other than myself.I'd like to have kids, but that's kind of impossible (okay, unlikely) seeing I'm
1. husbandless
2. in grad school
3. broke as a sick joke
So, the next best thing is an animal. A cute wittle puppy I would name Fitz (for Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy) or Marc Antony (for Marcus Antonius). But that's kind of impossible (alright, unlikely) seeing I'm
1. in an apartment complex that doesn't allow pets
2. in grad school
3. broke as a sick joke
4. not to mention leaving the country in the not too distant future
So, what is a girl to do? Have friends who do have living creatures and play with them. Like today, I'm getting to play with my buddy's black lab puppy at the park. Yay!

I totally feel you. I have to keep reminding myself that a puppy is not a good idea right now, but I need someone to keep my feet warm at night! :)
really, the only issue is the apartment that doesn't allow dogs. i have one, soon to be two, and we, too, are broke as sick jokes. they aren't expensive companions, and even though you're busy, dogs have no concept of time, so even while they may be in a cage while you're at work/school, they're just happy to see you when you can.
you're leaving the country soon, but there's surely some soft-hearted southerner who will long-term dog sit for you while you're gone. you may not get him back when you return, though. ;-)
you could send him to me. i'll watch him while you're gone.
Awww, thanks guys for understanding my doggie desires.
And if I did break down and get a little puppy, Brad, you'd definitely be the one I'd trust with him while I'm gone. :-)
I went to the park and absolutely fell in LOVE with my bud's little guy. His name is Toby.
lol ... thanks chantell.
i pick up my new puppy from the shelter on Thursday, so i'll post pics of both my girls on my blog sometime soon.
