Lately I've been consumed by thoughts of three things: a new business idea I've had (and Taylor has helped further), getting a house, and getting a dog.
It's easy to explain the benefits of the last two items, a dog and a house. I'm tired of living with my parents here, and I know that when I finally get married in April and get to move out I'm going to be moving into a small apartment complex that I'm not all that happy with. As for the dog, I've always wanted another dog, but Taylor with Cosmo and sites like Daily Oliver make me want to rush out and snatch an unattended puppy from someone's lawn.
The first thought that keeps my mind occupied is the one that takes up the most of my time, the business idea. It's a web business which may or may not be feasible, and already exists in many places. I don't really understand why it's nagging at me so badly though... I'm extremely happy with my current job.
I dunno... I'm too tired to make this a flowing, coherent post with some kind of point (as if most of my posts do) ... but I wanted to share what's been going on upstairs.

I find what you've written about to be a wonderfully common theme among people in general. For i suffer from this "obsessive" thing you speak of! There are definitely many things filling my mind throughout my days involving seemingly random ideas intermixed with planned out strategies for happiness. I, too, have been pining over having another dog, however, after much procrastination (is it actually "procrastination" if it was all for the better??) I held out from making any final decisions. Good thing, too, b/c it was not too long after realizing that maybe it wasn't the right thing for me now, that I met the most amazing Arctic Tundra Wolf/Malamute hybrid who has won my every bit of attention. Shugg (that's her name : ) is my very good friend's who happens to need a wolfysitter pretty often. I love devoting all my attention to her and the many, many other dogs that I now PetSit for a modest living (slumber parties with dogs are only a small aspect of my overall modest earnings!) In other words, sometimes we think we want something, but really we're just holding out for the right one to come along. oh yeah, the whole point that got me started was that I feel like you'd be happier if your puppy/doggy had his own yard (and not the apartment bldg.'s landscaping, although it always makes good potty grounds!)
