It feels so different being here without my dogs. I get up from my bed, carefully planting my feet down to avoid sleeping pups that aren't there. No clippity-clappity feet follow me as I brush my teeth or get water from the kitchen. I didn't expect to notice so much or the absence to be so severe. I found myself fall in a funk for a moment while waiting for my food to heat. I didn't want to be here and didn't want to deal with the people I live with. Hearing Kristie talk to her dog made me irrationally feel that she was mocking me and her loud laughter had been more grating to me than normal.
This is suppose to be an opportunity for me to go visit people without worrying about leaving the dogs, to not rush to the house right after work to let them out, to generally have more time to myself. Right now I don't think it is worth it.
On another note, I named the new car Aoko. Ao means "blue" and ko "child" in Japanese. It just seemed to fit.
