For the last month or so, I've been really wanting a dog. Longer than that actually, but in the last month it's been on my mind pretty much everyday. There was an ad in the paper yesterday for free small breed puppies, but since there's 2 cats in the house, I thought it'd be best to see the folks at the animal shelter first. They gave me the grand tour of the place. Seriously, you see the folks there, you see what it's like to actually have a job that you wake up looking forward too. At the shlter though, there wasn't really anything as small as I was looking for.
Determined to find me a dog, the lady there looked through the files to see what she had in foster care. She called a lady who had several dogs and cats in her house, and soon after that, my mom and I were on the way to this lady's house. She brings us to her sunroom and goes to get the dog. She returns with a dog that instantly melted my heart. Next thing you, I'm filling out the adoption papers. Everything will be finalized Saturday, and I'll finally have me a puppy dog. :)
I'd love to write more, but I've got to go to bed. I've been up for about 35 hours now. So if parts of this entry make no sense, that's why.
