Puppy!
Despite my best efforts to destroy this blog, it still somehow keeps getting visitors. Apparently, I’m huge in the Russian banking and pharmaceutical communities. I really do appreciate the offers, guys, but I don’t need to refinance anything right now.
This monstrosity of a blog might see even more neglect in the future, due to the recent addition of a puppy to our family. I would recommend a puppy to anyone who both hates sleep and enjoys maintaining a near constant state of alertness. It’s kind of like suddenly becoming the parents of a two year old child who won’t wear diapers, can run faster than you, and is capable of destroying anything within its path. Manually piloting the space shuttle through a difficult, dangerous atmospheric reentry would be a good equivalent regarding stress, only with less poops.

He is rather cute
Still…my husband wants a puppy. He’s never had one. I’ve had several. I don’t think he believes me that they’re little terrors who poop and pee everywhere and rip things to shreds. A “DOG” is a man’s best friend, supposedly. I do not see “A puppy is a man’s best friend” written anywhere, much less, “A wife’s best friend.” Give me cats any day of the week and twice on Sundays over a puppy…

Thank you both.
Angi, I’ve decided the best thing to do is to get a puppy, play with him for a few hours, then place him in a cave for the next two years. He’ll be ready by then.
