Saving space

I don’t know about you, but I’m all about saving space. Having grown up in a house that gave me a very small bedroom, I am always looking for ways to maximize my space. Because of this, I end up using a lot of the walls to store things. One example of this would be using wall mount speaker brackets to put my small speakers, so I wouldn’t have to use up any shelf space of desk-top space. One advantage of this is that it protects the speakers from being knocked over by small pets that may be going exploring when your back is turned!

Life as a dog

Easy or hard?  How easy life must be as a dog.  I’m a very independent person myself and even though at first thought I’d think life would be easy as dog I’m not really sure.

I’m not sure how I would handle life as a dog.  Sure, you get to lay around all day or play outside.  But, with that freedom from the stress of daily lives of humans comes dependence.  As a dog you are dependent upon your owner to provide you with all of the basics… food, water, shelter, a place to relive yourself, and of course love and affection.

I don’t like the feeling of always having to depend on someone else.  That’s probably why I have never been a big fan of group projects.  I would hate to have to worry about being hungry and waiting for someone to feed me.  I like being able to walk into the kitchen and grab a snack whenever I want.  I really don’t think I’d do well with having to ask to use the bathroom.  I can’t imagine having to hold it for a few hours if my mom wasn’t home to let me out.

I wonder what the biggest stress my dog has during the day is.  When will mom play with me?  Do I have to eat the same thing again?  Why can’t I reach that spot to scratch it?
