Desire

Driving home from work earlier this week, I happened to hear these letters read on NPR. Basically, they were responses from dog owners to an earlier report about a "Stella and Stanley Calling Contest" (based on "A Streetcar Named Desire"). It gave me the idea to call our new puppy "Stella" instead of "Fluff Butt" or "Puppy". Everyone else is on board now with the idea, and so the new pup is finally named!

Right now, however, I desire a good night's sleep. Although it is better than the first night, where she was awake and crying every 2 hours, she is still waking at least twice a night to howl.

Kali has finally started to accept her. They played downstairs for at least 15 minutes straight yesterday afternoon. Stella was chasing Kali in circles around the couch...Kali would jump over the footstool, and the puppy would run under.



I'm also desiring to see "Hunger Games". The plan is for a bunch of our friends to have a group date night for dinner and a movie tonight. It always seems that something comes up at the last minute, so I'm not holding my breath, but I REALLY want to see it!

Happy weekend to all!
