I have a dog!

...For the next two weeks, that is. I am dogsitting Dottie while my parents are off in Cambridge and Casablanca. Dad is giving a paper in Cambridge (he's only mostly retired, you know, and historians can keep on writing without formal jobs), and Casablanca is the site of this year's Meteoritical Society meeting, which of course includes the presentation of the award Ardis established in my Grandpa's name.

Mom drove up with the dog and her supplies -- food, toys, bed, leash, toothbrush, etc. -- and left after what was either a belated lunch or a very early dinner. I am typing this post with Dottie on my lap, which is slightly awkward but very warm and companionable. She's a little confused, and a little sad, but I think we will get on well together, as we have in past dogsitting incidents.

And hey, it will be nice to have an external structure imposed on my life, since I'm demonstrably bad at imposing one of my own volition. Plus, I'm getting paid. That is always a bonus. :-)

...

Maybe someday I will be able to afford a dog of my own. *wistful*
