I ought to do work, but I'm still feeling down.  Luckily, I'm not as tired anymore, due to caffeine and pasta, so maybe I can force myself to do something.  This assignment really shouldn't be that difficult; maybe I'm just psyching myself out because of my mood.

Though looking through petfinder sometimes helps me feel a little better.  Hopefully, in just a few short months, I will have a dog.  Right now, honestly, it is all I really want.  I just want an animal companion.  I feel like having a puppy to take care of will help me feel not so worthless all the time, maybe.  And maybe I could get my energy back up because I'll have to take him or her out and play with him or her and everything like that.  If I could, I would fast forward to when I could get one.

I'll still need to lobby for ownership, most likely.  Really, I don't want to have to part with the first dog I'll ever have.

When I think about it, I do become very excited.
