just like PORN
So for those of you who don't know, I am moooo-hooo-ving and I am so jazzed. The place is about a mile away from where I currently reside and is about a hundred times nicer.
In my search for the perfect place one of the items on my list was to find a place where I could have a puppy. So now that I have a place and my move date is around the corner I am sort of looking for a puppy (hence my devastation with the Puppy Spam incident). Rhett and I have toyed with the idea of him getting a puppy, a German Shepherd, and me being the foster mommy until he figures out where he's going to end up. That sounds like a very exciting proposition. That way I could share the responsibilities of a dog and there are big responsibilities. To this end he sent me this website so that I could search to my heart's content for the right little bundle of wonder.
I have just spent the last hour going from dog to dog and I want to adopt all of them. They are so cute. With each click of a picture I get so exited and passionate about the prospect of puppy ownership. I feverishly click back to look at the next picture and with every download I exclaim to an empty room and a web picture of a puppy, "You are sooo cute. I want to take you home." And then it occurs to me....
Is this the equivalent of porn to a not-in-her-early-twenties single girl? I get so excited and could literally look at this stuff for hours dreaming of the day one of these cute canines would someday be mine. Is that what guys do at the BadaBing? Instead of cooing over puppies, their vice is big breasted nubile, pseudo-senile women who look like girls or girls who look like women. Men are from Mars and all that.
I wonder if there is a market for websites of this kind of porn for the Not in Her Early Twenties Single Girl. $5.95 a month and you could see cute little puppies playing in a yard. Or to take it a step further, footage and pictures of babies eating lemons (so cute) and toddlers playing in adult shoes. That's gotta be worth $5.95 right? And for an extra dollar you can hear said baby say, "mama".
Hmmmm....I might really be on to something here.

So, does "nicer" mean it has closets?

Rather than being "on to something", I suspect that you are both "on something".

I think you could take this concept a little further (you are an enterpreneur, after all). Get a bunch of puppies and rent them out for a fee. People like to walk and pet a dog, but they don't want to deal with the vet bills, having to trim their toe nails, etc.
You could be the madamme of your new establishment - people would call you if they want a pure-bred for $15 a visit. Maybe you can get Rhett to hang out on some street corner with the mutts or grown up pure-breds that have lost their cuteness and rent them out for $5. That way you could corner both the low and high end of the market.
BTW, if this takes off, I expect a cut!
