musings

for a while now, i've been toying with the idea of getting a buddy for seven to play with. maybe a pup; i've even thought about getting him a goldfish.

silly, i know, but until i can work from home, it keeps breaking my heart that he's alone at the house even if it's just for a few hours at a time. i calculated that every 2.5 hours basically equals one day to him (if a year is equivalent to seven years for a dog). so, it'd be cool to have someone he could hang out with or wrastle with or just commiserate with during the day while i'm at work.

seven is the best pup a mama could ask for. he plays with his toys, never chews up anything of mine. he lets me know when he needs to go outside, he snuggles but he's also independent, he's not too yappy, he's funny, and he likes to smile for pictures and sing.

but he does get afraid when he's alone and i have three neighboring apartments full of noisy so-and-so's that frighten him. so, perhaps a pal would be good for him.

i've recently been considering getting a bunny. i've never liked rabbits per se, but i saw one on http://www.icanhascheezburger.com/ that ran around in circles like seven does, and it brought me joy.

well, today on ICHCB there was another painfully cute picture of a bunny (see below) that made think once again that seven would look precious with a bunny buddy. i could name it Five like in Watership Down (that kind of makes me sad, so maybe not).

would seven and a bunny be pals? or would this bunny idea basically just be an expensive and bloody experiment in seven's "ratting" heritage? yikes!

p.s. "ratting" don't have nuthin' to do with hairdo's lemme tell ya.

adieu for now,
