Aww man I want a dog.

For a while now I've wanted a dog. Not just any dog, a snow dog. Preferably a Siberian husky or a Malamute, but anything along those would suffice for me. Ginger Dan and I used to talk our love of dogs of the husky variety and how he would name his after the Tank Girl character Booga and I would name mine Captain Ahab or Penny Lane after the cat my roommate and I illegal housed in our dorm room for two weeks during our sophomore year. As a child I was denied the opportunity of have a dog. My parents could barely keep up with two screaming small children who fought like animals themselves let alone adding a real animal into the mix. My mom would have liked a dog, a small one like a Yorkie. I think when my dad gets weak enough in his old age to not care she'll finally get herself one. Lance on the other hand is adamantly against all animals that aren't someone else's or goldfish. Growing up, we went through A LOT of goldfish. Never in a million years would I have been allowed a dog, especially a shedding snow dog like a husky. Though with their anti-social natures a husky would have fit right in with my family. Unfortunately until I officially move out of my parent's house and into a home with a backyard I will not be getting the puppy of my dreams.

Instead I cope with my doglessness by reading the Text From Dog tumblr. In a ridiculously mysterious way some person in the United Kingdom is screen saving the precocious texts he receives from his dog while he's out of the house. The relationship between owner and dog is very reminiscent of the TV show Wilfred. In fact is I had to put a face to the "dog" on the other line it would be Wilfred's.

Seriously I'd hang out with this dog.

Anyways here are a few of the dog texts from Texts From Dog:
