Well, all is lost and all is not sound. Today i learned that i may never get a dog! It wasnt about taking care of it, as in walking, grooming, ect., but the cost of it all! It shouldnt come as a huge disapointment though, its just hurtful. I gave up a lot of my game time to get better grades and try to earn some cash(babysitting and all that jazz) but now i guess ill save for thin air now. Next step: Working at the Shelter and hoping to chance my dads mind.
