forgetfulness sucks

Over the past few weeks I have been trying to think of something to blog about, but nothing was worth blogging about. Last night I had this great idea about a topic, but when I went to write it out this morning I had no clue what it was about. I know I can't be the only person this has happend to. There you are falling asleep and a stroke of genius hits you, but you are either 1) too tired or 2) too lazy to get up and write about it. Then in the morning when you want to write you have a stroke of stupidity and can't remember anything. You rack your brain for a while, but give up because it is like trying to get a puppy not to pee in thee house, it isn't going to happen. I just recently got 2 puppies and man they are a handful, but that is another post. The stupid thing is that I might remember my idea again tonight, or when I'm eating a buritto from chipotle. Too bad my mind isn't like a computer. All I would have to do is search in my "blog ideas that you want to use, but are too tired or lazy to write them down" file and search for what I was thinking about. A bad part about being a computer brain is that someone will hack into my brain and delete everything or make me do stuff that I don't want to do. Could you imagine the doctor bill for relearning how to walk or breathe? It could also be a good thing becuase if I ever wanted to learn about the Loch Ness monster, all I would have to do is logon to the internet, download the file, search for viruses, then move it to my "B" drive. If you could do this you could be a doctor one day then a fireman the next. I don't know about you but I wouldn't want a lawyer/garbageman/CIA agent/chef/engineer/bus driver doing open heart surgery on me. I guess this is why we don't have computers as brains and go to school to get an education.

Jake

I wish there was something that I could do to make you better. Sorry that I could not be there for you in your time of need. Over the last ten years you have brought joy to my life and were always there for me when I needed a friend. I will cherish every moment that I spent with you. From the day that we took you home, to the first summer we spent together. I will remember the times that you took yourself for a walk, and the times you got on the kitchen counter for that extra treat. I will remember the day that you were diagnosed, and the last trip to the vet. You were so happy on the outside, but I knew there was a silent killer inside. That was the hardest decision I have every had to make. You will always hold a special place in my heart as my best friend. It was great to be with you and I wouldn't trade these memories for the world. We will meet again someday, but until then you will be missed.
