Why I am not a fan of pets that live outside of an aquarium
Today seemed to be going down just like an ordinary day - the girls and I chilled and played all day; Dude worked; we had family fun-time this evening; we ate dinner; Dude took the girls upstairs for a shower before bed; and then the plan was to get those little critters to sleep as soon as possible so we could go about getting our chores done. Only, that's not what happened. Dude took the girls upstairs for their shower and as I was embarking on the weekly grocery list, I heard Dude exclaim, "Ohhh NOOOOOOOOO!!!! Don't move!! Stay still!!" I had no idea what could be happening - poisonous snake in the house? rabid raccoon? WHAT?? - so I took the stairs three at a time to get up there and see what I would need to say to the 911 operator.
Dude heard me and said, "Open the door VERY slowly!" My heart sank. I was just starting to crack the door and I could already smell poop. In our carpeted bedroom. I opened the door slowly (I'm very good at following directions) and there was Belly wearing only a purple long-sleeved tshirt, holding my little green satin handbag, and hovering over a massive pile of poop on the floor. The Bug was trying to get all up in her business to see what had happened. I so wanted to take a picture, but the camera wasn't anywhere near the bedroom.
The whole thing was pretty gross and we dealt with it like good parents, blah, blah - but THIS is why there aren't any puppies in the girls' near future. Dude and I are both a little allergic, which is a convenient excuse, but really it's the shit. And the hair. And the dog slobber. Ew. I'm totally getting disgusted thinking about it. I like fish because they don't have those kinds of issues. Plus they don't bark and whine and need to be taken out at inconvenient times. Yep, fish are great. They taste good, too.

wuss. really? poop is your excuse. when you clean a fish tank, you are essentially cleaning up their poo. i don't get it but then that's no surprise. Dogs are fantastic!! even cats sometimes too!
It's the poop AND the hair AND the drooling AND the neediness. Plus we ARE slightly allergic... :)
