My Journey

Where I come from....written by a guy who my dad listens to on the radio everyday on his way home from work.
Life was, and still is, so simple there, though I didn't know it then, and I don't think I could ever go back for good.
It's definitely my first choice for vacation...there's still something about waking up to the sound of the fan running in the room below me and my dad's radio on outside.

My New Addiction

Feeds my thesis writing and fretting that maybe, just maybe, we might have Hillary Clinton as our president. Eeek.

A Different Kind Of Productivity

Today we went to Brooklyn to explore neighborhoods so we could begin our apartment search June. Our lease is up in 60 days. For some reason this move feels so....big. We found a neighborhood we loved and, while it didn't totally feel like home, it has more potential than either of the neighborhoods I've lived in since moving here. Now, if we could only find an apartment....
We took the dogs to the dog park where they made new friends. PS - we got another dog 2 weeks ago. Rescued him from people who couldn't keep him. He's an 11 week old peek-a-poo (halk pekingnese half poodle, but looks pekingnese). He's adorable, but we definitely forgot what it's like to have a puppy. We haven't had a full night's sleep since we got him :)
Nothing tops off a great day like a cherry dip cone, so we made sure to leave the dog park before dark and alas, the ice cream truck was still there waiting for us!
Happy spring break to me!!!

A Teacher Friday Night

Ate sushi with the Boy and watched the Oprah episode about puppy mills.
By the end I was bawling, cuddling the Dog (who had absolutely no idea what was going on), and promising myself 2 things.
1) That our next dog would be adopted from a shelter.
2) That at some point in my life I would become a dog rescuer or a foster home for dogs.
