My dog makes me feel all warm and fuzzy...

I have to say one of the best parts about living in Virginia is NOT the humid days, but the cool and breezy nights. Just put up a fly trap, light some torches, invite some good friends over and you've got one awesome evening to indulge in.

Violet and Diego (the pups of the casa) chase each other relentlessly in a game that amuses and confuses me all at the same time. They get pure joy out of creating dust storms in the yard while occasionally getting a drink of cold water from their outside bowl while my friends and I laugh at them and discuss whatever it is we discuss on the these anticipated nights. Whatever it is we talk about, the dogs run around, chew on sticks and come over for some human attention every now and then.

I love their innocence and how they make me feel happy upon the very sight of them. Dogs are awesome, especially these two. Violet and Diego are friends like you and I would consider a healthy, friendly relationship, except when I meet you I'm not going to sniff your butt...at first. Just kidding. They are say when they are away from each other and whine when they know the other one isn't going to be coming out to play. It's actually rather romantic in doggy terms, they wait for each other and look out for each other when other dogs come around (we basically have a dog park in our back yard whenever our friends want to come and visit).

So what if I love my dog and other dogs as well, so what if I don't have any kids right now, because I'm not ready. I'm happy to have Violet and Diego to show just how happy they are to see me when I get home, their love is timeless for us humans and we should repay the favor. If you don't have a dog, I understand, but there's nothing like your dog coming up to you and nuzzling you out of sleep because, she has decided it's time to get up (not everyday, sometimes you have to ignore them...) and she wants to play.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I love my dog because, she has a personality like no other dog and she makes sure that I'm in a good mood despite they day I've had. She has no idea what I've been through, but she's gonna make sure that I'm happy enough to feed her and pet her. Damn dogs, and their doggy eyes...they could get away with murder.
