OK, I let my rage explode. I guess I have to do that occasionally; better here than in interactions with my family or employees. Enough for tonight, though.
Now, I'll take a tiny bit of time to be different.
I'm thinking about adopting a pet. Preferably a small to medium-sized dog that has already been house-trained and which needs a home. I don't travel alot any more, so it would not be a major inconvenience for my wife. The lead volunteer of a client organization has offered to support me in my quest to adopt a Boston terrier. I don't know that is what I want, but it's a great offer. I want a dog that is suitable for our lifestyle...a dog that won't suffer because of it. A dog that can take time away from us, but which will appreciate the love we give it. A dog that will thrive on conversations with me (figuratively, of course).
We still have things to do to our house and yard to make it doggie friendly. I really want to do it, anyway. I need a fried. So does a dog that would be a great fit for us.

Get the dog, my dear. In fact - get two. Critters fill your world with joy. I could not imagine my life without them. You and your wife will find yourself wondering just what you did before you got that dog. And go through Boston terrier rescue. Give some poor creature the benefit of a happy home. Just make sure to take the time to adjust - especially if you haven't had pets before. Life will change. It will, to some extent, revolve around the dog. That can be marvelous - if you let it. If you are always impatient and expect all of your life to run on a tight schedule - then pets might take some work on your part. Dogs are like children. It’s like having a perpetual 3 year old around all the time. That can be pure joy; and they can be frustrating too. Just remember - critters are messy - much like life. I wish you joy, my friend!
i'm a huge fan of the rescue track also. my current german shepherd came to me that way. i try to be half as cool as my dog thinks i am.
