Things are not quite so dire as my last post sounded, although they really are that busy. Afsheen will (finally!) be here in a week, along with our car, and that should make things easier, at least on the shopping and eating fronts. But until then, it's just me and Paddington. And while he can be awfully demanding at times, Paddington is definitely the most adorable roommate in the world.
Because I like the efficiency of the list format, here is a list of cute things Paddington does that make me temporarily forget that I never sleep because I'm too busy studying:
1. chases squirrels into trees
2. jumps up and down in a sad attempt to climb the tree trunks, while barking madly at the squirrels
3. chases things he thinks are squirrels, such as
a. sparrows
b. tree stumps
c. shadows
d. leaves
4. insists on sitting in my lap while I study/work on the computer
5. climbs from my lap onto the desk, where he snuggles up to my laptop
6. plays fetch in the hallways
7. sneaks into the law school quad to chase squirrels
So at least in terms of things to chase, the east coast definitely agrees with P Bear. Although I have to admit, I'm a little worried what would happen if he ever did catch a squirrel. I'm pretty sure that in a fight, the squirrel would win.
Paddington will be so happy when the snowing starts. He is a spitz-type dog, isn't he?
You should dress warmly, though.
