A Girl and Her Dog

This dog's face absolutely kills me

Someone once said, "whoever said diamonds are a girl's best friend, never owned a dog" and they may have been on to something. When I was younger, a puppy was the number one thing on my Christmas list, then for a while I was pretty convinced that I was a set cat person, until recently. One of my crew coaches has a dog (I don't know the breed, I just refer to it as "a cute dog") Murphie who is the most energetic girl I have ever seen. Literally, I will be taking her for a walk and the second the leash is in my hand, she will start sprinting. It's something that I can't really do with my cats and there is nothing better than being able to walk a dog out on a beautiful day on the campus you love. 

It's funny, because like having a baby, when you are walking around with a dog, people are so much friendlier to you, but hey, as someone with a natural unfriendly face you can't complain there...

Unfortunately, it looks like it's going to be a while before I can get a dog of my own, but in the meantime, I am going to be stealing borrowing Murphie for as long as I can. 

Happy Sunday! Whether you are studying or trying to hold off a sunburn from a weekend regatta (you know, hypothetically speaking...) I hope you had a wonderful weekend and a wonderful start to the week!
