dog days are over (explore 11/12/11)

Ok, admittedly, I never understood cats. I grew up a dog guy - through-and-through. Ever since I was able to remember anything, there was a dog in the picture.. Big ones, little ones, middle ones, and all sorts of tongue-waggin’ varieties from a maltese to a great dane. So, cats were just odd curiosity to me. That is, until my daughter came home with two black homeless kittens. Yeah, you parents know what I’m talking about : )

So, two years and a frayed couch or two later, and I have to admit that I finally kinda get them. They really are more than just “instinctual” animals that also occupy your home. Yes, their personalities are somewhat crazy, but also quite fun just the same. Besides, I don’t have the bandwidth to take care of a dog, let alone my kids and myself.. So, for now.. Dog days are over!
