My new roommate

Thanks to Who Am Us Anyway for the vote of confidence regarding the dog. I'm going to pick her up tomorrow night (Tuesday). I'm getting very excited. I went to PetSmart and bought a bed and food and a gate to keep her in the kitchen when I'm not home. I spent much intellectual energy trying to decide on her name (btw, it's Pixie, in honor of the greatest punk band of all time), and even managed to convince my mother and stepfather that they should come to my apartment for Thanksgiving so that she wouldn't have to travel too much after coming to live with me. I'm planning on keeping treats in my pocket when I go meet her to make sure that she'll like me.

Ahh, if only men were so easy.

With Pixie getting settled in, you probably haven't had time for much else this last week. The whole aspect of human-dog interspecies communication is just totally fascinating to me. One thing for sure, dogs can read human emotions amazingly well.
