ON THE BACK BURNER

I just watched Cricket move from one of her three beds to another. What a life. I am definitely coming back in my next life as a loved pet. I get hooked every time someone send me a site for a cute pet video. Why do we do this. I suspect that we are the only country that puts so much value on our pets. Are we more humane, or are we more dependent on them to give us unconditional love. I watch the Animal Planet on TV and turn it off when it gets too sad. I have to physically restrain myself from adopting cute little dogs. Who would I rather have sitting behind me on a plane? A dog or a small kid that kicks the back of my seat. That is a no brainer question. I don't know how I will feel when I leave Cricket for over a month. I am concerned that the family I am leaving her with will tell me that they aren't returning her. I wonder if you can sue for alienation of affection when it comes to pets. I haven't even left her yet and I am getting worried that she won't miss me. That's my fault for having really nice people want to take her while we are gone.
