02. Rottweilers are my favorite dogs. But I can't bring myself to purchase a puppy, when so many are living in animal shelters and need a forever home.

10. I can't get to sleep without watching a couple of cartoon episodes each night.

19. Studying the Tao Teh Ching has brought me peace of mind.
20. When I spend the night away from my dogs, I use pillows to simulate weight near my body where they would normally lay. Otherwise, I can't sleep.
