i'll take that as a no

so i really want a dog.  i have several good reasons for this.  they're cute.  it's one more thing to cuddle with.  i was in way better shape when i had a dog because i would go running with him every morning, between two and four miles depending on the day.  running alone is really boring for me.  but running with a dog is actually enjoyable.  and dogs are a great way to reduce stress.  but part of the problem is that i know that the fail ninja isn't super keen on dogs.  she's tolerant of the little ones, as long as she is still bigger than they are.  but she is less than found of the big ones.  it took her about ten minutes to come down off the rafters after melanie and her dog hank stopped by.  so i figured maybe i should talk to her about it first.  her reaction?
