i think we're going to have a puppy...

at doctor jessica's party this weekend we met bob's breeders, who told me they had pups, and one in particular was sweet and kind and loved sitting in people's laps. i didn't ask more about him, as i didn't think i wanted a puppy (i like dogs better when they are over 8 moths old). but when we came home i looked at their website, and found out that:

* the pups are born on my birthday
* their father's "family name" is aziz - bob's given name was azizazbab
* they are really really cute

i still didn't think i wanted one, but when i talked to other people about it i found out that:

* tommy didn't mind having a peeing little puppy in our home
* the sisters would love to come a few weeks each to wipe up puppy-pee
* the boss wouldn't mind if i brought a pup to work
* the colleague closest to my office has been nagging me about getting an office-dog since we started
* a friend/soon-to-be-ex-colleague is probably going to have a puppy this summer, so we could go puppy training together

...and suddenly i can't find a single reason *not* to get a puppy anymore...  ¶ 7:41 PM
