Today (among other things) marks 5 years of Hal and I being together as a couple.  I got home for lunch today and Hal had a surprise waiting for me.  Hal finally bit the bullet and bought me a PUPPY!!!  Hal didn’t want to pay the $300 for a pet deposit, he didn’t want to clean up the poop and the mess a puppy can make.  But he did it, just for me!  YAY!!!  He’s so cute!  He’s white with black spots.  He’s friendly and already does tricks!  Any ideas for a name?!

Did I mention that it’s not exactly a real puppy…it’s a ROBOPET!   It does all the same stuff.  I can teach it to bark, to roll over, sit, come when I call him, lie down, play dead, he farts (without the smell…what a bonus!), he even lifts his leg to pee and makes the noise (which is hysterical), and squat without having to pick up warm poop!  It’s awesome! I know it seems geeky, but I’m in love already.  He even sits quietly in my lap…without shedding.  The perfect puppy!  My negotiation skills with Hal must be improving.  Anyway, here’s a picture of the newest addition to the Weber household.
