Memoirs of a Geisha and Doggie Times

What a lovely book. I watched the movie some time ago, but I honestly couldn't remember the end, so I was fearful. The book really drew me in with all its intricate details. However, after the war, I felt the book was dragging a bit until it finally came to its wonderful end. I'm not sure why I found that part not so interesting. I guess I was just getting a bit fatigued by following such a long span of time? Well, either way, it was a very fascinating book, overall. I'm glad I finally got the chance to read it.

Meanwhile, Joe's friend left his dog with us for the weekend. Mandy is about the sweetest, most good-natured dog I've ever met. It is a bit difficult taking her out first thing when I get up, because I hate doing anything major before washing my hair, but it's been mostly fun.

I wish I could have a pet to keep. It's been more than 3 years since Cha-Chi died. :( It gets so lonely here when everyone goes to work. But today, I've spent time watching Mandy snooze on her bed, while I read and watched TV. I'm going to miss the company when she leaves tonight.
