Get Paid For Living
I totally scored the best job: dog-sitting. (Oh but don’t worry, I’m still doing the bird flu study too.) I get to stay in the cutest house (which I want to be my very own) and watch this TV:
I got to see the wild peacocks that live in the trees:
I was also excited to take a bath in this tub:
But then I tried it and I remembered why I don’t like baths. It took over a half-hour to fill it up, and then I sat in it for maybe five minutes because I was actually sweating. I never intended to wash myself because I do not believe that baths are effective due to the fact that you are sitting in your own filth. Anyway, the bath is beside the point. The real point is that best of all, I get to play with these boys.
Teak:
and Riley:
Riley is a little insecure and likes to be around people constantly. He follows me into whatever room I go to, including the bathroom. Yesterday morning as I was showering he apparently missed me since I was behind the curtain, because I even saw his little head peek inside. He is also afraid of thunder and rain. Lucky for me, it started thundering and raining early in the morning. After I got out of bed to feed them at 5 a.m., Riley promptly hopped into my bed and situated himself on top of my pillow. He is a lot of dog and is not easily moved. So I didn’t get much more sleep that morning. But he’s so cute!
I am just meant to be a dog owner. I can’t wait until I have my own house and my own dogs, whenever that may be.

3 questions for you:
1. whose house is that?
2. why are there peacocks?
3. do they have their computer hooked up to that giant TV? Because that’s completely awesome.

that is a sweet bookcase in the TV pic. i think that’s the one my most elite sims usually upgrade to right about the time they retire. that’s right…i sometimes play the sims.
also, i hope you don’t mind if i quote you on my blog–you totally made me laugh out loud, and i’m in the TC library.

i’m glad you found it amusing. some day i’ll figure out how to post pics from these public computers, and when i do my blog will get even more interesting.

You got bangs.
I am observant.
I miss you.
