Want a Brownie?

Who wants a Brownie cuz I don't, well not anymore. Growing up I never had a pet puppy. I've had fish, lizards, turtles and birds but never a doggie. Well I finally got my wish granted with the addition of an bleu nose pit bull. From the moment he was carried into the house I knew I was in love. I was scared I was going to hurt him so I hesitated to pick him up but my boyfriend assured me that I wouldn't. For about an hour we played with him trying to come up with a name for him, instantly I came up with Brownie and that's what we stuck with. The other choice was King, but I wasn't thrilled with it. My boyfriends mom made a bed out of a cardboard box and supersoft blanket. We went to the bodega and brought a few cans of soft puppy food. (Side Note: Never buy soft food, Brownie had diarrhea for three days) We went to pathmark and got Brownie some hard food, I think it was puppy chow anyway he loved it. Brownie has been at the house for about two weeks and the excitement is over. I never wished for sleep the way I do right now. At seven in the morning everyday he starts crying at my bedroom door, but it's not the kind you can ignore. So now I have to get up to open the door and try to put him back to sleep. Of course that doesn't happen because he's been sleep for the past few hours so now he wants to play. So finally he goes back to sleep after being up for two hours, it's now 9am and I have to start getting ready for work in an hour so it makes no sense to go back to sleep. Then he pees everywhere! I'm so tired of him peeing on the floor instead of the newspaper I've put down for him. I can't lie because he has been going on the newspaper lately. Taking care of a puppy is extremely tiring and now as an adult I see why my mother always told me I couldn't have one. The good news is he isn't my dog so I'm not obligated to care for him but I love him so I do it anyway. Want a Brownie? I bet you do but you can't have him! (Laughing)
