It's my 19th birthday on Sunday, and I think I know what I want...
Today I had a big break between classes, and got to go watch my friend get a filling. (There is no sarcasm here, I was genuinely excited about getting to do this) and for some reason her dentist's 8 week old puppy was just sitting on the floor behind the front desk.... and I think I fell in love. He just had the CUTEST little face and he was fun and nice and good and ADORABLE, and I think I really REALLY REALLY just want one. Here are some more reasons why...
1. They are small, and look cute
2. They are cuddly
3. They give you something to play with when you are bored
4. They require you to exercise with them
5. They make you so excited to come home even when school was long and tough and all you want to do is crawl into bed and not talk to anyone or do anything.
6. They always will love you no matter what
7. You can take them to the beach
8. You can be "the girl with the puppy" when you go places
9. They always ALWAYS want to hang out with you
10. They can't be mean
11. They protect you from strangers.
12. They don't care if your room is messy
13. You can name them the kind of people names that you think are kinda cute, but just not quite right for a real human (Bruno, Rufus, Oscar, Sam, Max, Franklin etc.)
Maybe my new found love for a cuddly little thing has something to do with the fact that I recently became single. All I know is that it took a LOT of self-restraint to keep myself from grabbing the dog and booking it out of that dental building this afternoon.
The only problem is that I don't know if I would love it still once it grew big.
Oh well. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
