Maybe one of those will find her way into your lap some day. <br /><br />Before deciding to acquire a dog, one should research the breeds; they vary soooo much. Funny, I have an image of you with a greyhound.

And sometimes waking up from a dream is the best part.<br /><br />But if you suddenly start talking about <i>almost</i> wanting a cat, or dream of <i>almost</i> relocating to a hot and tropical climate, then we'd have to worry.raniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10388182093002251665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-2551811199766741652013-01-11T10:10:14.195-05:002013-01-11T10:10:14.195-05:00I don't see how it's irrational to want a ...I don't see how it's irrational to want a dog when one of your fears is growing old alone. <br /><br />And in my experience, when the time is ripe for canine companionship, the right dog has a way of finding you. Your mileage may vary.<br /><br />Your process is uniquely yours, and I won't attempt to intervene. I just wanted to tell you I think you're "improving" with age, so no worries.

You only live once, Reya, you know? I'd be happy to have you stay with me in London, or I'd meet you in Paris. As for the dog, well, I wouldn't rule that out either, but that requires more thought since there's another being involved.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-39331792514060272912013-01-10T21:56:50.164-05:002013-01-10T21:56:50.164-05:00Come to Taos :)
