Animal Kingdom

Whilst in the midst of the rain forest, a sloth crossed my path and began to speak in a foreign tongue. One which I spoke well. "Why is the orangutan a nomad of the trees?" He is smart beyond his years, I replied.

What is this world coming to?

Last Saturday was my boyfriends birthday. I am arguably the worst gift giver that ever lived. So, I wanted to do something great for once. It was brought up many times the thought of a dog, one that he wanted. Apparently every dog he has ever had has been picked out by someone else. So, he said specifically, he wants a Weimaraner, grey, with blue eyes. Seeing as he lives in an apt complex, I had him call the landlord and ask permission before I fork out some shells on a purebred dog. 2 days later, the landlord calls back (after having thought about it the whole time) and leaves a message saying he could indeed have a dog as long as he pays a $300 pet deposit. Blake said he would pay the deposit if I got him a dog. The next morning I took Blake to the breeder and was able to pick out the exact puppy he wanted. This guy was BEAUTIFUL! (I will post pictures when I get them). He walked straight up to Blake and put his paw on him. He was calm though quite huge for a puppy. The mother is 110 lbs!!! After picking him up, we head to my grandmother's lake house to allow the puppy to swim and play. On the drive home, after a day of bonding, the landlord calls back. This time he says "I have changed my mind. You can't have a dog". Blake explains that I already got him the dog and it is non refundable. If we take him back, we're out $250. The landlord explains that he has the right to deny Blake that privilege and it's just too bad. The next day, there is a list of pet policies on his door from the condo leasing office stating "the landlord must give consent for a pet....violations will result in eviction". So basically, this guy is a total a** hole. Blake is moving out, to a larger, dog friendly apt complex. The landlord has yet to return Blake's phone calls about moving out. What a bunch of poo huh?
