  • So I came home from work this morning...

    ...Just a quick stop off, as I'm heading out to get my car inspected, and I see a doggie wandering around the front of my building. I think I've seen it walked by one of the locals before. I ask a few people who are *going* to work if they know whose doggie it is, but most of my neighbors are Korean and don't seem to talk to me for some reason.

    Anywho, I use the magic word("Treat!") he comes trotting over, and I inspect the collar. The address isn't local. I call the phone number, which is out of service. sighing, I take the doggie up and barricade him in the kitchen while I call the property office in a vain hope that it'll be open. To my surprise it is, but it's really the call center for the company, and when I say "maybe you could call the property manager and tell her what's going on, she'll know who this belongs to."

    "I'm sorry, it will be against protocol if I call her on her private cell unless there is a building emergency."

    "Listen, she loves animals. She won't mind."

    "I'm sorry, you're going to have to wait until the office opens."


    So now the doggie is hanging out in my kitchen. His name is Oreo, by the way.





    I'm going to miss my inspection.

        Yeah, DD already made that joke in IM.

                    You do the slaughtering in the kitchen?

                    By the way, most of the Koreans I know--and there are a lot of Koreans at my school--would not eat dog.

                      So they say. Q^3 eats dog at least twice a week. That's a fact.

                      Dog may or may not be a metaphor.

                        Great for you rescuing the dog. We have also found three dogs lately. We had to put up fliers, but reunited them all.

                          What the hell? Stray dogs always attack me. I give them a wide berth.

                            That's because Philly stray dogs are all hopped up on meth and PCP and other hard drugs. Being a well-to-do area of the country, all the Fairfax strays are docile pups.

                              One time when I was running, I was attacked by two stray Pit Bulls or Rottweilers or some mix. I couldn't outrun them and they (pack hunters that they are) effectively cornered me against a wall. Thank god a passing motorist saw what was happening and started honking his horn and that scared the dogs away. Holy ****. That person saved my life. Had they not seen it, reacted as they did, or anything else, I would have been seriously injured or dead.
