Hubbies, Kids, & Puppies

I'm a person who enjoys chatting with people. The three topics I will never get tired of are relationships, children, and dogs. Since most of my friends are married women, the hottest topic for us is our husbands. We always share our feelings about what our men said or did. Though most of the time we share our upset or frustration, I would say having someone hear us out is beneficial to our marriages. After knowing what complaint(s) a gal had about her hubby, the rest of us would give our support by saying we had the same problem or offering some words of encouragement. When we talk about the second topic, most of us seem more excited. After all, we women seem to be able to tolerate children more than our spouses. I don't have children, but I enjoy listening to all the different stories about my girl friends' kids. In my eyes, children are the most lovable human beings, especially those who have just learned how to speak but cannot "talk back".  As for the last topic, I can only talk about it with strangers  because none of my friends have dogs.  During my daily morning walk, I usually run into a lot of dogs and their owners. Whenever I see a dog, I stop to chat with its owner to find out four pieces of information: the dog's name, age, sex, and breed. Well, with these four starters, most of the time I end up knowing a lot more about the dog--personality, habits, and mischievous behaviors. While listening to people talk about their "sons" or "daughters, I can always feel their affection and love for these creatures who are more loveable than kids. I love dogs so much that I follow almost every episode of the TV series "Dog Whisperer". I admire Cesar Millan for his ample knowledge, skillful tricks, and the absolute power he shows in every episode. I pay full attention to how he fixes problems that owners have with their dogs. Once I learn something from the show, I'll use it on my sister's dog MeiMei. To my surprise, most of the time the tricks I've learned really work!
MeiMei became my "niece" when she was only one month old. I fell in love with her as soon as I saw her. Now she's one and a half years old. I'll talk about her more later!
