Random Thoughts

My day job prevents me from typing up a long and interesting blog post everyday but today I am taking a minute to write a few words.

I do not have a human child, I have one of the canine variety but I love him more than anything in this world. He brings me joy and happiness every day and there are days that I feel guilty for not spending more time with him. I would like to take him to work, but it is not allowed. He is too big to fit in a bag, or a papoose to take to the grocery store or mall. He is kind of small and timid to go to the dog park, although we have tried on a couple of occasions. He does love riding in the car, sitting on the front porch, and walking to West End's Grace Court to sit on his favorite bench.

I came across the His Dogness blog today. It tells of a man and his love for his dog, who he recently lost. I think that it would be nice to have an obituary section in the paper for pets. Many of us think of our pets as family and I think that people may want to read about that kind of love. Maybe a blog would be better for this kind of thing, but I think it is a good idea.

OK, that's all for now. I may be back later.
