The Love of Dog

So...I was down with the flu for the entire time last week.

The flu...sucks.
Daytime TV...sucks.
Getting behind at work....sucks.
Missing 2 winter guard rehearsals and 1 performance...sucks.

The only thing that didn't suck about last week, cuddling with my dog.

I have spent my whole life being a cat person. I love the independence of a cat as well as the personalities and selective affection. I always liked dogs as well, other people's dogs - dogs from a distance - dogs that didn't fill my backyard with poop, those were my favorite dogs.

However, being a person of some adventure and self abuse, I relented to my husband's wish to get a dog two years ago - and I have never been happier. Our dog Harley, is the most entertaining, irritating and lovably goofy personality I have ever met. He curled up on the couch with me, the baby and the flu all week long and only pushed me into the coffee table on one occasion. Good Boy Harley...Good Boy!
