Doggies, Doggies Everywhere

Today when I was driving in to work, there was a Beagle in the middle of the road - alive! Not hit by a car yet. It had a collar on, and was just wandering around the road. I slowed down to avoid hitting it, of course, and I wanted so badly to stop and see if it had a tag so I could get it back home, but there were two cars behind me and if I stopped I would be late for work, and so I didn't. I regret that, now. I hope it made it back home okay, and that it doesn't get hit. Stupid Beagle. I'll look for it tonight when I'm on my way home, to see if it's still around.

Also, have I told you yet that J and I are nuts? Well, we are. :) The other day Jamie told me at work that someone who also works on campus had rescued a Basset Hound from their neighbor, and he might take it. Only he chickened out and didn't take it, and now J and I might. We certainly don't need a fifth dog, but it's a Basset Hound! And it's been tied outside forever! And it needs a home! So it's probably going to be ours. I'm going to call the woman who has it today and tell her we want to come look at him. We aren't for sure taking it, but then again, J has it named already (Geech, although I don't know if I'm spelling that right or not - and that name is from the Simpsons, for those not in the know), and we're suckers for dogs, so it's probably going to be ours.

So far today has been better than yesterday. I haven't had that "running in place" feeling at all so far. Of course, it's only 8:58 a.m., but still. :) Also, J didn't have to go to work until a normal hour today, so he was there when I got up. I always love being able to see him in the morning.

And now I need to get to work, so this is all for today. I hope you all have a great Wednesday!
