Lisa and I went to two open pet adoptions yesterday. One at Petsmart, the other at a Veterinarian’s hospital. We left empty-handed each place. One would think that it would be a cinch to adopt a dog. We have had nothing but run arounds and false leads since we started. It is a thoroughly frustrating experience. I find myself calming Lisa, “Don’t worry honey, we’ll find a puppy; this is just God’s way of saying this puppy wasn’t meant for us.” It is beginning to feel like some TV movie of the week; next thing I know, I’ll be boarding a plane to Romania to bring home an orphan puppy!

Last night I had a DATE!!!!! This fellow, from his picture, looked like a man with whom I could fall head over heals in love! He had the look I find so appealing: Pale skin, dark hair, dark eyes. I am happy to report he didn’t disappoint in person. The date seemed to go well. I suppose I’ll see how well the date goes if he calls me within the next few days. My fingers are crossed.

I may have a date this evening too. The plans were left up in the air and I hope I get a call firming them up. If not, no big deal. I have a ton of chores on my to do list that I must accomplish TODAY!
