My mind works in non-linear ways

So, it’s been a bummy week. Nothing in particular, just bummy. When I have weeks like this, I get the desire to either


  1. move to a new place. A completely different town. Just gather my things and head out. Right now, the places on my list all have snowy winters. Which I moved here to get away from. But apparently now miss.

    Or

  2. get a dog. Right now, the preferred breed is a greyhound.

I realize those things are not remotely related. I have no idea why those are the two things that I become obsessed with. I mean, on the one had, a new place would be interesting. New people, new favorite places. But then again, it took me about 4 years to feel settled here. And then the dog thing. I love dogs. But they are a lot more work then cats. And there’s still the possibility of traveling for work. Which means I’d have to pay for a kennel. Oh, and also, according to my lease I can’t have a dog.

So, one of the solutions is more feasible (new town!) but one is easier and could be accomplished sooner (dog!). What to do, what to do.

Or, there’s the going back to school thing…

Go for the dog - you can make friend with other dog owners and you will all become fast dog maniacs who will offer to take care of each others dogs when you travel and then soon you can move and take the dog with you - then you will have both. Watch out for the going back to school thing. I did that at 25 when I felt restless and have a deathly large student loan that I will be paying off forever.
