Small, yapping dogs carted about in strollers: Yet another reason to push the restart button on humanity.

The small yapping dogs are annoying but a person's choice in pet, but it's the putting them in strollers that makes me think humanity isn't worth saving.

It's a dog. It can walk.

Mr. Muggles only gets carried when his paws could get muddy. Or she just wants to hold him, which, I admit, is often.

Re: Meta

That's entirely different. These dogs were in modified baby strollers.

Some of them even had bonnets.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

That's just insane.

Of course, I think Sandra already coddles her dog far too much. He is a several time prizewinner, though.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes it is.

Another thing I don't understand, but if it makes her happy...

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

She really loves him, and all the various dog-things they do.

I stay out of it.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Why?

Wise man.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Honestly? I have no idea.

I like to think so.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

It's so very strange. No offense meant to your wife.

Most do.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Breeding show dogs is her hobby. I suppose I'm glad of it. Otherwise she'd have nothing to do with her life. Of course, it was no choice of mine to have her stay at home.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Of course not. What did she do when you met?

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

We were at college.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

And married there?

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Shortly afterwards.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

When did you adopt Claire? How long into the marriage, I mean.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Nearly four years. We'd been... trying for a while before that.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Had you? So she was more than an assignment, even from the start?

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

I... Yes. But I was... reluctant, too. I didn't think I'd be a good father. I suppose everyone feels like that, though, before it happens.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Yes. I mean, I suppose they do, yes. I wouldn't know.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

It's a huge responsibility.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

And one, I hear, you have done very well.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

I... Thank you.

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

She's a very special girl.

Re: Meta

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Yes. She is.

What do you know about it?

Re: Meta

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

That she has my ability. That she is the first in 400 years I've heard tell of being like me.
