ante diem vi ides june 2003 c.e. Malyss said it was a sign of the apocalypse. I was just surprised. Kinja emailed me. Dear spivak I saw that you had tried to visit me while in town. My husband and I bought a house about 2 hours from Parsippany. I just needed to leave Parsippany in the same way you needed to leave New Jersey. It would have been nice to have gotten together for lunch and catch up. I have no hard feelings, and I gather you don't either since you came to visit me.  That was nice! I had to email you to tell you I got a dog. A ROTTI. Her name is Jesse (not my choice). I saw her wondering around the business complex where I work and I was worried that she was a stray. I didn't take her home that night but did leave her food and a blanket for her to sleep on. When I got home I was so upset that I was crying thinking something might happen to her and I told my husband. He said that if she was still there in the morning to bring her home. The next day at work she was no longer there. However, the company I work for shares a warehouse with a moving co and I saw the dog in the warehouse. I went over to see who the dog belonged to and it was this guy Im kinda friendly with. I told him what I did and he asked me if I wanted her. That he and his wife were divorcing and neither one of them could take her at their perspective homes. I said SURE! She is the sweetest, most loving dog I have ever met. She actually reminds me of Kate in many ways. Anyway, I just had to email you because I know how much you love Rotti's and it triggered a happy memory of when you were able to pet one at the park with me, remember? Well take care. You can email if you would like but if you don't I understand. Peace & Blessings, Kinja
