I wouldn’t mind being this cute couple today – out for a stroll through some quaint neighborhood with an adorable pup making my way through the brisk October air. I’ve never had a dog myself, and probably never will have a dog, because of my mildly ridiculous phobia of sudden and unexpected loud noises (read: barking, fireworks, balloons popping.) I’m the lame-o that is always covering their ears during fireworks displays and cringing nervously when I see toddlers fumbling around with about-to-burst balloons. So the idea of having the unexpected-noise-making machine that is a dog in my house 24/7 is less than inviting to me. Thankfully these pen-and-ink puppies don’t make a sound!
